Volunteer Program Report
Volunteers are an integral part of the FLN and
we would not be able to do the work we do
without the contribution of the very many good
people who offer to support our work.
We continue to have volunteers come daily
to support teachers in their classrooms,
administration staff and where appropriate
the work of the Refugee Support Worker.
A large part of our volunteering program has
been under review this year as we assessed the
delivery of the community networking program
and adult study support to ensure that these
were operating in the best possible way.
We are in the process of recruiting a new
Volunteer Coordinator who will be managing the
roll out of our revamped program n the new Year.
