Volunteer Opportunity

School Excursion Volunteering Opportunity. As part of the Kids Hope program at Kerrimuir Primary School, we are offered the opportunity to volunteer for various school excursions throughout the year. The May and June excursions are on a Tuesday morning 10.00-12.00, accompanying teachers and students as they visit a local Aged Care facility. This is a wonderful way to support the school and grow this relationship between NewHope and Kerrimuir. ‘Working with Children Checks’ are required and can be generated on-line at no cost (takes approx 30 days). If you are interested, please contact Peter or Viv Siede on 0418 390 184/0401 928 578, or email news@newhope.net.au.
