We had one each term. All families are expected to volunteer once in the year. They do stuff like gardening, weeding, washing of windows repairs, moving into new classrooms, cleaning, lining bb courts etc. It was for two hours on a Saturday morning. Because we ran out of money during the building project, parents this year volunteered to do concreting, roofing and cabinet making. We paid for the materials and they gave of their time for free. Volunteerism is huge here. It is done for clubs and societies also. It is more common in Catholic and other 'private' schools than State schools.
