Class Carer Program
Class Carer Program
The Class Carer Program is being established at Ss Peter and Paul’s to create new opportunities to strengthen connections between our families and our school.
Each Class is assigned a Class Carer at the beginning of each school year to assist with:
- Welcoming new families to the class and arranging appropriate introductions with other parents.
- Organising parent helpers for food donations or fresh flowers to support class families in times of need. (eg. New baby or illness)
- Encouraging and supporting the members of the class group to get involved in school events (eg Trivia Night,)
- Possibly organising gifts of appreciation for World Teacher Day and end of year thank-you
How it Works
- Each class has a designated Class Carer. (1-2 volunteers)
- Parents from each class provide their Class Carer with their email address and will become part of the voluntary communication network.
- Class Carer communicates with their Class teacher to keep up to date with class happenings, via email.
- All Class Carers will meet once a term to check in with coordinator and each other for ideas and support.
Class Carer Coordinator
The Wellbeing officer (Tory Simmons) will coordinate the Class Carers by providing introduction training and ongoing support.
