Our school community takes on much of the maintenance of the school. A lot of this happens at our regular working bees.
These reduce the cost of the education for all, and, more importantly for many, working together is an energising and wonderful way of being in community. Sharing kai (food) together prepared by the kitchen team at the end of the work is a convivial and rewarding aspect of our working bees!
Majority of working bees will be held on Sunday mornings in 2025, with three working bee dates on the traditional Saturday – to better meet the availability of our community.
Additionally, if you would like to participate in maintenance work outside of working bees, please contact maintenance.trss@gmail.com. There are always so many ways in which you will be able to participate in this valued aspect of school community life.
