For parents, it’s an opportunity to help build a strong, mutually supportive community that sends important messages to the children.

Your participation shows that you both believe in the cause of the School and the importance of playing a role in the broader community.

There are many ways in which you can volunteer – scribing, helping out at the Saturday canteens at Northbridge and North Sydney, working at the second-hand book stall or assisting in the library, the School museum and archives.

Opportunities are occurring all the time.
