Volunteer Workshops Information

Communication Workshops

Workshops are used to train volunteers in their character, attitude and expression.

Through these workshops, volunteers can gain invaluable skills to express in small groups or before entire classes of people! Giving volunteers the confidence to work with children and skills that go beyond the classroom.

 

Team Building

We can achleve far more workling together than when we work alone.

With guidance from your team leader, teams of volunteers undergo team building exercises.

Over the next 12 weeks, you will rely on one another to lead Gr1-3 or Gr4-7 Interest Classes.

 

Guest Speakers Professionals

Professional individuals come to StepUp to share their experiences with our volunteers.

Learn new career paths, and immerse into real-life experiences told by our guest speakers.

We thank our volunteer speakers for their expertise and time.
