Volunteers
As per ACT Education Directorate policy, all parents/carers who volunteer in classrooms, at sporting events, on excursions or as drivers etc. complete a Volunteers Form, available from the Front Office. If a person volunteers more than 3 times a month, or 7 times a year, you will need to obtain a Working With Vulnerable People card (WWVP). Application can be made at https://www.accesscanberra.act.gov.au/app/answers/detail/a_id/1804. Received cards are sighted by the school. Volunteers sign in and wear a volunteer badge each time they volunteer.
From time to time parents are asked to assist with the transportation of students to special events. All assistance is appreciated, however, the owner and/or driver is responsible for ensuring they carry the required driver's licence, that the vehicle is appropriately registered and insured, is roadworthy, and that loading does not exceed the seat belt provision of the vehicle.
