We believe that it is important to build community to support children. Strong connections between home and school help students to feel supported.
To be able to volunteer on field trips, individuals need to provide a valid police check (done within the past 5 years), and to take the Child Abuse Protocol Training that is offered online. Before you head to the RCMP detachment to request a police check, please visit stop by the office to pick up the letter from the school that explains why you need a check to be done - as a volunteer with us, you would not need to pay for this service.
Online Volunteer Training - Watch the video, then fill in the form for the Windermere zone.
If you just want to come in to read with students during teacher-supervised Family Read times, or participate in our open doors events, the above-mentioned checks & training are not required.
