Parent Volunteers – How you can get involved

Donate

Welcome to the growing WESE community. Our learning community depends on its dedicated families.

Many hands make light work! Contact volunteer@wese.ca to volunteer!

Please sign up for a volunteer task, and help enrich the school while strengthening our community. The magic of our fairs and festivals is built on the helping hands of our parent community. Watch for opportunities to contribute and keep the magic alive for our children.

Sign up for a Committee

If you would like to be involved in the behind the scenes work that goes on, email us about joining a committee. Email volunteer@wese.ca to find out more information about any of the committees listed below.

  • Fundraising – This important committee researches new fundraising opportunities as well as maintains ongoing ones, such as the Growing WISE mural. Our school depends on fundraising!
  • Gateways Conference Steering Committee – The annual Gateways conference in the end of April/ early May brings together amazing keynote speakers and inspiring workshops. Come and help organize this wonderful learning experience for our community.
  • Garden and Playground Committee – Work with us as we plan, implement, and fundraise for our new outdoor space. Grant writers needed!
  • Fairs Committee – This committee plans the Pumpkin Walk, the Winter Fair, and the Mayfair.
  • Communications – Website development, creation of brochures and pamphlets, and communication with the community.
  • Maintenance and Carpentry – If you can’t make meetings, but would like to help when there are odd jobs to be done around the school, join this one.

Come to a Work Bee

Throughout the year there are several Work Bees where we come together on a weekend and complete projects at the school. Some work bees have a specific focus, such as digging new gardens while others have odd jobs of all kinds. Work bees are a lot of fun, and a great way to meet parents from all the different classes. Please sign up so we can estimate how much work we will be able to accomplish.

Email volunteer@wese.ca for more information on volunteering at our school.
