School seeks ethics volunteer

Woy Woy South Public School has had Stage 3 Ethics classes running in its library in conjunction with its scripture program and is now looking for a volunteer to continue the program next year.

"A volunteer-based organisation called Primary Ethics runs this program and they are responsible for providing the appropriate training for parents who volunteer for an ethics teaching position," said principal Mr Terry Greedy.

"Unfortunately, Shelly Ridgeway, the parent volunteer delivering the program, is not able to continue in this role in 2013," said Mr Greedy.

"The ethics classes have proved to be very successful and we were hoping to be able to expand this program into Stage 2 classes in 2013.

"This will not be possible if we do not have two interested parents to teach the classes.

"Rather than lose the opportunity for students to participate in the ethics, program we are inviting interested parents to contact our ethics program coordinator, Danielle, to apply for the positions."

Anyone interested in applying to become an ethics teacher should contact Danielle by emailing uminaethics@optusnet.com.au.
