VOLUNTEERS NEEDED<br />

As part of our Indigenous Scholars Program our<br />

Indigenous students participate in a range of<br />

activities hosted by AIME - Australian Indigenous<br />

Mentoring Experience.<br />

Last year, parents assisted in driving the students to<br />

weekly sessions in Ultimo. This year we are calling<br />

for volunteers to donate their time for only four<br />

dates throughout the year.<br />

The boys will be attending four full-day sessions at<br />

the University of Sydney and we need parents to<br />

assist in drop off OR pick up on these days.<br />

The sessions commence at 9am and finish<br />

at 3pm and will be held on the following<br />

Wednesdays: June 12, July 31, August 28,<br />

October 30.<br />

We will need at least two vehicles for each<br />

driving leg.<br />

If you are able to help out on either a drop off or<br />

pick on any of these dates please email me your<br />

preferred date and leg.<br />

Thank you for your support.<br />

Wanted – volunteers for<br />

examinations<br />

Do you feel competent reading and writing English?<br />

Are you a reasonably legible writer? Are you<br />

sometimes available during the school day?<br />

If so, we would love to hear from you as we are always<br />

keen to have more people on our program of exam<br />

volunteers. We need people who would be prepared<br />

to act as a reader and/or a writer for a student.<br />

Other parent volunteers comment that this is a great<br />

opportunity to experience the content and conditions<br />

of examinations that your son will be undertaking in<br />

his school years.<br />

If you are interested, please contact Fiona Bain,<br />

Coordinator of Academic Support on fbain@<br />

cranbrook.nsw.edu.au or on 9327 9435.<br />
