Volunteers are a valuable part of the Tenison Woods College community. There are many ways that you can volunteer around the school. For example: canteen, Learning Assistance Program (LAP), Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden (SAKG) Program, excursions, class representatives, in the library, at working bees, coaching sport and fundraisers.

Year 2 Students Isabella Fielding and Macey Lawrence enjoyed being involved in the Shrove Tuesday fundraiser this week. 

Year 4-7 Students have the opportunity to try out for Netball, Football and Soccer as part of the HPSP 'Ignite' Program.

The program is suitable for students who have a strong commitment to their sport and who are looking to improve their individual talent.
