Term 4 Volunteers – New Process Reminder 

As mentioned in previous newsletters, all schools across the Sandhurst Diocese are now following a new system-wide process for engaging volunteers. This updated process ensures that we continue to uphold the highest standards of child safety and wellbeing. 

If you haven’t yet had a chance to complete the new volunteer process, we kindly encourage you to do so as soon as possible. It only takes a short time and helps us maintain a safe and consistent environment for all students. 

To volunteer at our school, all individuals must complete the following steps: 

1. Volunteer Registration Form – available on the school website. 

2. Volunteer Referee Form – ask two referees to complete this form, also found on the school website. 

3. Volunteer Induction Module – allocated to you after registration (this module replaces the previous onsite induction interview). This includes reading and acknowledging:  

4. The Child Safe Code of Conduct 

5. The Staff & Student Professional Boundaries Policy 

6. The CESL Photography & Video Policy 

• St Francis of the Fields – Volunteers 

For more information or to begin the process, please visit our school website or contact Luke Freeman - lfreeman@sfstrathfieldsaye.catholic.edu.au

Thank you for helping us create a safe, welcoming, and vibrant school community!
