The Catholic Schools Office values the significant contribution volunteers make to all our schools. Volunteers bring a rich and diverse mixture of culture, life experience and expertise from their communities.

They complement and enhance the student-centred care provided by our staff. Our volunteers enrich the quality of life for our students and their families and are in turn, enriched by their experiences. Volunteering has many forms such as canteen helper, library helper, reading helper, classroom help for many aspects of school life such as STEM, art and craft, and school events such as carnivals and cattle showing as well as working bees.

To be a Catholic school volunteer, you must be 18 years of age or older and have completed your schooling. You must be of good character and you may be required to undergo screening for suitability for volunteer work in a child related areas.
