Each year parent volunteers take a turn at mowing the school grounds, keeping them looking presentable and ensuring the children have a nice place to play. Engaging volunteers at Our Lady Star of the Sea school is integral to the experience for our students. It provides an important link to the community and the home. As not all parents are able to volunteer during the school day, the Mowing Roster is a way to support the school, meet other parents and build on the home - school connection.

Parents who volunteer are awarded House Points for their childrens' house colour, which are collated to go towards the Citizenship Award, presented at the end of each year to the House with the most points collected through participation in activities such as Working Bees, mowing, community events.  

If you would like to join the 2023 mowing roster please email Pearce Fay pearse.fay@deakin.edu.au.  Alternatively email secretary@staroceangrove.catholic.edu.au or phone the school office on 5255 4308.  

All equipment is supplied and an induction session and welcome will be held at the beginning of 2023.
