If a regular commitment is not possible for you, there are so many ways you can get involved with helping the school that don’t have to be time consuming! Parents can offer anything from their super-power painting skills to spruce up the playground, green fingered magic to help the borders bloom or get their market trader voice in action and sell raffle tickets at an event!
