2022 STJPA - WE NEED MORE VOLUNTEERS

We urgently need people to put their hands up to help support our school’s PA in 2022. Our beloved school events simply cannot happen without the support of our parent community. We currently do not have volunteers for:

Presidents (co chairs)
Communication (previously secretary)
Year level reps for grades 1,2,3,4,5 (teams are welcome)
Several events throughout the year as listed. In particular, we need to have a team volunteer to organise the welcome back disco in the first few weeks of school.

We have now added the names of those who ran the events previously so people know who to contact should they need some guidance. Thank you to those who have volunteered.

We would like to ensure that we have filled the roles by November 30 which is our final STJPA meeting for the year. In particular, the exec roles, the rep roles and the events for term 1. We urge you to please consider sharing any roles with friends. For the most part, the most important thing is to encourage everyone to get involved. All roles will be supported with a manual that we have created with guidelines and resources. We can only make things happen if people put their hands up, and the more hands, the lighter the load! We are so proud of all we have achieved as a team this year, and last, despite the incredible challenges of COVID. 2022 is about bringing the joy back to school!

For exec roles, please forward an expression of interest email to Brendan via bflanagan@stjamesbrighton.catholic.edu.au.

For rep roles and event coordination, please fill your name in the spreadsheet linked below.
