• One hour for all year levels.

Wednesdays:

• 9:00 am – Year 6
• 11:30 am – Year 4/5
• 2:15 pm – F/1

Thursdays:

• 9:50 am – Year 1/2
• 11:30 am – Year 3/4

Volunteers Always Welcome!

We are always happy to welcome new volunteers to the SAKG program. It’s a wonderful way to get involved with your child’s learning, and to connect with their peers in a fun, hands-on way. No cooking or gardening expertise in is required—just a positive attitude and a willingness to support a small group of children in their kitchen or garden activities.

We encourage parents, grandparents, and special friends to get involved. However, in line with our commitment to child safety, all volunteers are required to complete a Working With Children Check, as well as the Child Safe Modules, and submit the necessary paperwork. As part of new legal requirements, all schools must adhere to strict guidelines when involving volunteers, to ensure the safety and well-being of our students.
