Clerical volunteers are 'on-call' for occasional administrative support opportunities at the school. For example, labeling yearbooks, stuffing envelopes, folding, printing, laminating etc. The opportunities are typically during the day and only take 2-4 hours to complete. If you sign-up for this opportunity, you will be contacted for your availability when a specific job is identified.

Volunteers will work together to decorate the Senior School Reception Desk for special occasions throughout the year. They may work as a group, in teams of two or singularly (dividing up the occasions as they see fit) and a two-year commitment is preferred. The decorating can be done on a flexible schedule during appropriate hours while students are either in class or off campus; however, not during peak times (i.e. morning attendance, recess or lunch breaks, pick-up).

The decorations should be simple, welcoming and child-friendly. Volunteers are responsible for providing their own decorations and/or may borrow items already present at the school (which may be limited).

There are nine occasions identified as decorating opportunities (along with the approximate month they occur in): Back to School (September), Halloween (October), Diwali (November), Holiday (December), Lunar New Year (January), Valentines Day (February), Easter (March/April), Springtime (May), Happy Summer (June).

Volunteers will coordinate the installation of the decorations (which will take place within a reasonable time-frame before the occasion) and will ensure the fairly prompt removal of the decor after the occasion.

Volunteers meet regularly to manage items in Lost and Found. They are sorted, hung up, and if labeled, distributed to the student to be reclaimed. Unclaimed items are cleaned, washed, and either sent to a charity (annually), or sold at the school’s uniform sale. Two to three parents share this job and usually rotate. The distribution of the tasks and day/time is flexible but needs a school year-round commitment.
