VOLUNTEERING IS…
If you’re doing something to help other people and you’re not doing it to make money, then that’s volunteering. Whether you’re putting out cones at sports events, coaching, organising the school ball, washing dogs at the SPCA, planting trees or picking up rubbish at the local park, you’re making contribution to your community and that counts.

DUKE OF EDINBURGH AWARD
A number of our students are currently working on their DOE (Duke of Edinburgh) Awards. These are International awards that are recognized around the world with regards to developing young people into good citizens.
These awards can be gained at three levels - Bronze, silver and Gold. Each award involves the students doing a number of hours of service in the community, they must learn a new skill and participate in regular physical activity. As well as these three components students must also take part in an adventurous journey.
