Interview with a Volunteer

Melanie Roberts

Why do you volunteer at BNPS?

I love the feeling of giving back to the school, helping those who are helping my child grow and learn. 

What year level are your children in?

My little girl Takai started her Prep schooling this year. 

What roles have you volunteered for during your time at BNPS?

Since being a part of the BNPS community I have been lucky enough to help out with school photos, head lice checks, and numerous canteen duties. 

What is your background/current role (outside of BNPS!)?

Currently I’m a social media strategist and I also work as a membership consultant at Goodlife Health Club on Tulip Street. 

What do you do during your spare time?

As a solo parent, there isn’t much free time so to speak. But I am currently studying to be a Personal Trainer. 

What’s the best thing about BNPS?

I really enjoy the atmosphere and the sense of community that BNPS brings. The teachers have always made us feel extremely welcome to be a part of the school. All staff members are extremely approachable, and willing to help with any enquires.
