Dear volunteers and friends,

Welcome to our second Hands Up 4 Kids newsletter for 2023.

Hands Up 4 Kids welcomes all new volunteers and sends a greeting to all current volunteers.

This term we have had two Volunteer Networking Events that focused on understanding the work Chaplains do in schools. One event was held in Margaret River, for Margaret River and Busselton volunteers with guest speaker Chaplain Lynette Wallis. The second event was held in Bunbury for volunteers from Bunbury, Donnybrook and Harvey. Guest speakers were Chaplains Emma Strong and Benn Gladden.

If any volunteers have any questions or suggestions, please contact Suzanne to help keep our newsletter relevant and vital. (email: suzgratwick@gmail.com)...
