The Parent Skills Register is a “palette of capability” which could potentially be utilised by the school or within the P&C, through offering direct skills and experience.
Skilled volunteer effort, advice or access to opportunities through your abilities and contacts from “the real world” is a greatly appreciated and highly valued way to have input to the school. There are many parents with a wide variety of skills, and regardless of what your skills are we can find a way for you to add value for our children.
If you would like to have your “colour” added to the palette, please contact the President or any one of the P&C team. We would simply like to know what skills you have, and/or what products and services you or your business may have access to.
A few thoughts based on previous years include (and please help us expand upon this list with your skills, abilities, and contacts!):
- Child Therapists
- Building Services & Architectural
- Gardening
- Health & Medical
- Maintenance
- Legal & Compliance
- Engineering & Construction
- … and many more
The register is reviewed within the P&C and with school staff to identify potential opportunities which can be arranged in such a way as to suit all parties involved.
