Year 11 students from Nayland College's Foundation Certificate seeking volunteering opportunities that will allow hands-on experience that contribute to the community. We have around 22 students, and they are a mixture of 15-16-year-olds. We would be open to doing a full class at the same time or we could individualise to the different students. During school hours would be best but we can work around this if we need to. We can have 2 or 3 teachers there to support as well. For more information, please contact Missy Seymour, [email protected]

School and Year Start-up Payment – Work and Income
We’re emailing carers to let them know. Please help by sharing the word about this with the carers of children who you’re working with.
Extraordinary Care Fund
This is another payment which is available to help carers with costs for the children they care for. This fund helps with extra costs if a child they care for is showing promise, or needs extra support, in a particular area. Carers could get up to $2,000 for each child. You can find more info on our website.
