SCHOOL SUPPORT

Through the work of one of our teachers, Carisbrooke is involved in the BC School Fruit & Vegetable Nutritional Program, an incredibly successful program that delivers healthy fruit and vegetable snacks to over 525,000 children in public schools across the province.  Deliveries take place approximately once a month,  depending on school specifics. CPAC volunteers help out by preparing the fruit and veggies once it is delivered to the school  and distributing it to the classroom. 

Throughout the year you can see members of our Gardening Crew Committee working on the beds at the front of the school. The beds have a spring, summer and fall display. 
Our Crossing Guard program is run by parent volunteers guarding the crosswalk on Carisbrooke Road in the mornings.  

In the past few years the PAC and the school have worked closely together  in planning for an emergency.  Over the last 4 years the PAC has purchased 3 days work of emergency food and water as well as other crucial items in case of a significant event such as an earthquake.   
Each year the PAC puts together a School Directory through FreshSchools with the contact information provided by the parents at the start of the year. Inclusion in this directory is by choice.  

Every year Carisbrooke hosts two Scholastic Book Fairs. Volunteers are needed to assist during these fairs in morning, lunchtime or after school shifts. Should you be interested please watch for the volunteer sign up in the CPAC Newsletter or read here for more information.
​
Parents also volunteer to work in the library during school hours supporting the school librarian.

 Should you have any questions or would like to volunteer please contact [email protected].
