Southland Girls High School (SGHS) – Reader Writer Assistance 
Over the years, the numbers of students requiring this specialist support has increased dramatically.  At SGHS, they currently have 43 students in the Senior school (Years 11,12 &13) requiring assistance.

SGHS is looking for volunteers for Reader-Writer Assistance for Year 11-13 exams in September & November to read Exam questions or writing the answers or in some cases both. 

The exams for these students are held in a separate classroom / away from the main examination area and other students. 

Our contribution through this project will significantly impact the Students potential success and is invaluable to the school.

Training is provided - Police vetting will be required.
