Volunteer Interview

Brad Lowe

Why do you volunteer at BNPS?

I think it is a great thing to be part of the kids' school and be part of their 'everyday' at school. I can still remember my mum doing tuck shop at my primary school and sneaking something into my lunch! It is fantastic to be able to do the same thing myself.

What year level are your children in?

Abi is in Year 3 and Eddie is in Year 1.

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

First time volunteer in the Canteen! Finally got my act together getting my Working With Children Check which was a lot easier than I thought.

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

I am a stay-at-home Dad of five years who has boldly ventured back into the work force with a part time role at the AFL. I gave up work when it became really apparent that my wife’s career was streets ahead of mine and I made the bold decision to not work anymore. A decision I have never regretted.

What do you do during your spare time?

Father of four kids with a wife who has a pretty full on job…what spare time? I do sail on Saturdays.

What’s the best thing about BNPS?

I love the feeling of the school. It is small enough to be pleasant, but big enough to not be too small. Love the beachy Beauie feel of the grounds which could be in the country somewhere.
