Help Wanted!

Many volunteers are needed to implement all the programs and activities supported by the APA and to support the teachers in the classrooms. No matter your skills, interests, or time availability, we have opportunities for everyone and value any contribution. Browse the volunteer opportunities listed below, or contact APA Chair Ari Rowland to discuss how you can get involved in a way that best suits your availability and interests.


Volunteer Opportunities

A current Toronto Police Services Vulnerable Sector Check is required to be a regular volunteer in a TDSB school. For a step-by-step guide, please review the Police Vulnerable Person Screening Information.

Lip Sync

Allenby’s Lip Sync event is one of our largest school and APA events of the year. It takes a large number of volunteers to make the event successful, which means we need your help! If you’re interested in volunteering on the committee by helping to plan dress rehearsals, organize music, plan concessions, run the bling boutique, or create signage, there are many different opportunities to get involved!

We are also in need of a co-chair for the event. We have lots of great material from last year to get started, as well as a schedule for this year already, but we need someone who can help drive the event with our current co-chair. Please email the Lip Sync Committee for more information or to volunteer.

Do you have a passion for communication and comfort with digital publishing tools like MailChimp and WordPress? The Allenby Newsletter team is seeking additional editors to contribute to the Allenby community. The team of newsletter editors work together in weekly rotation, and the time commitment is 2-3 hours a month. If you are interested, email allenbyeditors@gmail.com to learn more.

Email the APA for more information or to volunteer.
