Our Volunteer clearance process is in place to help keep our school and students as safe as possible, and is a necessary step for parents and caregivers wishing to volunteer and contribute to our school. We value you, so much!

We remind people that this process is valid for a number of years and then clearances must be renewed for you to be able to continue to volunteer. The department who verify and provide clearances are experiencing a high volume expiring in 2024, so we remind people:

• You will receive a letter advising of the upcoming expiration. The school tracks dates, but individuals receive the letter directly which advises you to complete a new Working With Children Check/Catholic Schools Police Clearance application. 
• As per the current Archdiocesan policy; Expired Checks = No service provision permitted

Taking action will assist with the inevitable delays in processing that will occur with DHS as they work through very high volumes of processing applications.

For those wishing to get a jump start, the initiation request (which must be completed, with the original and relevant ID docs brought into the Front Office to be sighted) can be downloaded here.
