Who is responsible for Gardening Duty?

Families in 4-year-old groups are asked to do Garden Duty once per year. The Garden Duty roster is located in the foyer, with Red Group rostered on one half of the year and Blue Group rostered on the other half. The roster is given at the start of each half of the year and it is your responsibility to swap with someone if you are unable to do Garden Duty on your rostered week.

How do I access the Kinder for Gardening Duty?

The group’s Co-educator will give the family on duty the key to the shed after the last session of your child’s week.

What do I need to do on Gardening Duty?

Requirements on Garden Duty include sweeping all concrete areas and the cubby; mowing and whipper snipping; tidy laneway and kinder gate area. Not all jobs need doing every week. Please look around and do whatever you think is required to keep the Kinder looking neat and tidy.

Do I need to sign-in when doing Garden Duty?

Yes. For insurance purposes, please make sure you sign-in and out of the Volunteers Book when doing Garden Duty. Please note that only workers between the age of 12 and 65 are covered by the kinder’s insurance. Parents taking younger children into the kinder grounds during Garden Duty, do so at their own risk.
