Volunteer Update for 2026
Thank you to all the families who continue to support our school community by volunteering. Some of the information below is a reminder of our existing processes and some of it is new for 2026. Please read carefully so you understand what applies to your situation.
To meet our Child Safe requirements, all volunteers need to follow the steps outlined below.
You will notice there is slight differences between our general volunteers (canteen, excursions, special events, etc) and our coaches and team managers for our basketball, netball and football teams.
