To our Tūao: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Springboard Trust’s vision is to Transform Schools Together. But we can’t make that happen without the thousands of hours our volunteers give to schools every year.
Our volunteers come from all walks of life, but all have one thing in common: a desire to give back to our tamariki.
Through Springboard Trust, they partner with school leaders and – often over the course of 10 months – spend time listening to, challenging and developing those in New Zealand’s most important role: education.
They do this as coaches, subject matter experts, facilitators, capacity partners and more And this week, we’re featuring interviews with some of our astonishingly accomplished volunteers to highlight their contribution.
We’ve also launched our inaugural Volunteer Impact Report, and have some special treats coming out volunteers’ way this week!
Join us in applauding all of our volunteers, and enjoy what we’ve got on offer this week!
“Volunteers are a vital part of Springboard’s whanau. Hundreds of you across the whole of Aotearoa share our commitment to Kiwi kids, and are willing to show that commitment by making the time to collaborate with school leaders. Together we have worked with over 500 schools, and we are only just starting. To all of our volunteers: a heartfelt thank you. We deeply appreciate your generosity of spirit. We hope that you, in turn, are inspired by the school leaders you have come to know. We look forward to continuing our work together, supporting school leaders to help Kiwi kids thrive. ”
Ian Narev, Chairman (and volunteer), Springboard Trust
