Volunteers

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the College.

Parents and Carers who would like to become involved in any student-based activities, should complete the required SPX Volunteer Undertaking and Statement Form to register as a volunteer at the College.

This completed form is for College records and is stored securely with the Principal’s acknowledgement of your work done at the College. On completion, it should be returned via email to Ann Brady, the Principal’s Personal Assistant, for the Principal’s approval and College records.

Working With Children Checks

If you are in a voluntary role where you are supervising students in a close capacity, or without a staff member working with you to perform your role, then you are required to complete a WWCC application.

This means any parents/carers, coaches, working in any area of the College including the College Uniform Shop, 1:1 Mentoring/Student Coaching and the Canteen must have a completed a WWCC to work at the College. (Source)

Steps to Complete a WWCC

  1. Complete online the Application for a NSW Working With Children Check.
  2. Once approved they will provide you with a WWCC Number (via an email).
  3. Upload the WWCC details to this Online Form so the College has a record as required by law.

All volunteers should be aware of their responsibilities as a responsible adult around maintaining and ensuring child safe cultures, if you ever have any concerns or questions regarding our students’ well-being or welfare please contact the Principal or Deputy Principal at the College.

The required forms and an information sheet for volunteers can be found below.

Volunteering from parents and carers is so vital to our community in being able to provide a broad and rich experience for our students – we are truly appreciative of your time and efforts.
