At Wellstead, we value the contributions that our volunteers bring.  We are fortunate to have recruited an excellent group of volunteers who regularly support the children.

Over the last 12 months, our volunteers have joined us on a wide range of visits; driven the minibus to the local swimming pool; heard many, many readers; and supported in a range of other classroom activities.  

Why Volunteer?

Make a difference- Volunteering gives you the opportunity to make a difference to the lives of young people in local schools and the wider community. You can use your skills and experience to help and enrich the local community.

Fun - Volunteering can be fun and fulfilling allowing you to experience opportunities not usually available to you. You will be providing an opportunity for children to progress and achieve more in their learning.

Training - Whilst volunteering at Wellstead Primary School, we will endeavour to provide you with excellent on the job training, which will be useful both at our school and in other areas of life.

Influence Career Choice - Volunteering gives you a chance to gain experience in an area you may like to work in. For some, volunteering can give you the opportunity to sample potential career choices.

Build Your Confidence – Many volunteers encounter a variety of new challenges when they begin their time in schools. In sharing new experiences with new people, you can learn new skills, building your confidence to face challenges in other areas of your lives.

If you would like to volunteer at the school then please contact the school office.
