Volunteers Needed

Forest Hills is proud to be able to provide both a breakfast program and a hot lunch program five days a week to all of our students. We could not do this without the continued support of our parent volunteers.

We are currently looking for parent volunteers who can help us with these valuable programs. Breakfast program takes about 1/2 hour in the morning and hot lunch takes about 1 hour.

If you are available any day of the week for either of these programs, please contact the school at 658-5338 or e-mail our volunteer co-ordinator, Mrs. Sharon Davidson, at sharon.davidson@nbed.nb.ca
