Helping Out
 

Most parents these days have many demands on their time. The majority of parents work in some capacity and it is appreciated that no one has unlimited time to devote to an unpaid voluntary job. However if every parent gave just a few hours of their time per year the PTA would literally be overwhelmed by such support. We don’t expect parents to contribute to or help at every event but you can take great satisfaction from knowing that any help you give will benefit the school, your child and ultimately the whole community.

Don’t worry if you think you have no skills to offer—we will almost certainly find what you are good at; after all Everyone Is Good At Something!
