Volunteer

Volunteering at Valley Creek School

Volunteers are organized early in the school year. All volunteers are required to complete a police security clearance and sign an annual volunteer registration form. 

Volunteer opportunities include preparing materials or use in the classrooms, completing projects at home, supervising groups of students on field trips, working in the school Learning Commons, and assisting with school events. Our Phys. Ed. Team also requires volunteer support throughout the year for numerous activities and will post these requests on their blogs each month.

​​​​Volunteer with Us

​We welcome volunteers in the classroom, on field trips and with certain tasks at school or at home. Certain activities or field trips would not be possible without the active participation of our volunteers. Contact us about ways you can volunteer with our school.

Visit the CBE website for more information on volunteering, including the required registration and Police Information Check. (Please note, guest speakers or visitors to the school, and parents/guardians assisting their own child only are not considered to be volunteers and do not require a police information check.)

This afternoon our staff participated in a team building exercise where they raced with water, completed puzzles and had fun working together. It felt great connecting with each other outside on the school grounds. #WeAreCBE https://t.co/xo9BV50ZoM

Today our staff deepened our understanding of intergenerational trauma and it’s effects on Indigenous people. We walked away with actions we can take towards reconciliation. Thank you @timothycfox for working with our staff.

Thank you Parent Council for the personalized mugs! 🤩 https://t.co/gAys0OZvkr
