  3. BEING A PARENT VOLUNTEER Introduce yourself to those around you discuss: • Why are we here? • What does being a parent volunteer mean?

  4. What does being a parent volunteer mean? Being a valued member of the College community: • Demonstrating that you value and support the students learning • Your support in the activities will ensure that children remain on task while the teacher is working with other groups • Your willingness to assist shows other parents what can be achieved when partnerships are formed

  5. What does being a parent volunteers mean? • While support is valued and appreciated, the responsibility for directing the teaching and learning remains with the teacher.

  6. What other issues should be kept in mind when volunteering ? Retain confidentiality • The privacy of both parents and children must be respected at all times • Do not mention the names of children or teachers with whom you are working in front of your own children or other parents • Children can easily be hurt by apparently harmless remarks from their peers or other children

  7. What other issues should be kept in mind when helping in classrooms? Beware of making judgments • All children can learn • Children learn at different rates and have different learning needs

  8. EXPECTATIONS • Working with Children Check (WWC) • Always sign in and sign out of the Main Office • Please register your apology by leaving a message with Main Office
