There are multiple ways that you can support NEPS as a local business, a community member or a family member. We invite parents and community members to engage with our students in classrooms and in the schoolyard. Individuals need a current working with children check to support students with small group work, such as literacy and maths activities or reading. We also have volunteers helping in the canteen, the school garden and the NEPS Shed. Volunteers working in specialist areas such as the canteen and delivering literacy programs will be trained to do so. If you’d like to work with our students please contact us.
Fundraising
NEPS runs some specific events across the year to raise funds. In the past these have included an Easter Raffle, School Fete and a Move-a-Thon. These funds have been used for major projects such as new playground equipment and library refurbishment. From time to time we connect with local businesses for specific student needs such as funding attendance at camp, or education supplies. If you are able to support these by donating goods for raffle prizes, including vouchers, or funds for school projects, please contact the office. All of our donations are recognised in the school newsletter which is posted on the school website and in the foyer of the main building.
