Overview
Due to unprecedented time service hour is still up in the air, however, once Covid-19 rules are lifted and it is safe for us to continue our normal ways, we will provide you with lists of things to consider for your service hours.
Every family is expected to contribute 60 hours of service to St. Helena’s School from September 1, 2022 - August 31, 2023. Your help is needed during the school day, after school, and on weekends.
Volunteer opportunities are listed below. There are no special arrangements or exceptions.
Families who fail to meet the entire 60 hour commitment will be charged $30 for each hour not worked.
Bingo is held 5 days per week in St. Helena’s Gym. A number of volunteers are required to ensure the smooth operation of each Bingo session. Bingo Sessions are as follows: Thursday & Saturday - 5:00 - 10:00 PM, and Sunday - 3:30 - 8:30 PM. Therefore, there are 5 hours worked per Bingo session.
Parents who agree to work bingo must be willing to work once a month for 12 months. Parents must sign up for a particular day and will be assigned to a team; the calendar will begin in September, 2022 for the entire year. Calendars will be emailed to the email address on service contract in mid-August.
This year we will have our Virtual Tricky Tray on April 29, 2022.
