Parent Advisory Group

The children enjoy your involvement and the educator’s value and appreciate your interest and support.

We value your suggestions for our program and we would love to include your child’s current interests in our program. As your child is enrolled at our kindergarten service, you automatically become a member of our Parent Advisory Group.

Families and carers are wonderful resources in our service and there are many ways that you can contribute to your child’s experience. If you have any skills or interests you feel would be interesting for the children or any activities you would like to have included in the program, please speak to one of the educators.

Please note: A volunteer Working With Children Check is required to volunteer at our services.

You may be able to contribute through:

• joining us on excursions;
• participating in events at the service – breakfast club, morning/ afternoon tea for families;
• snack/lunch roster;
• laundry roster;
• fundraising events;
• sharing special talents e.g. craft, cooking, music;
• special events/days e.g. mother’s day, father’s night, BBQ;
• input to kinder activity program;
• policy reviews;
• helping us with equipment purchasing by shopping, catalogue surfing;
• attending meetings for community event support at the kindergarten;
• small maintenance jobs — if you are able to help with gardening, sewing, typing or mending equipment, the educators would be glad to hear from you; or
• recycling — in many of our activities we use materials that are recycled. We would appreciate any items e.g. boxes, scrap material, milk bottle lids, in any quantity.

Please fill out the Volunteer Expression of Interest Form and let us know how you can help.
