Volunteer Opportunities

 

The BC Ministry of Education requires that all students achieve a total of 30 hours of work experience in order to graduate. These hours can be through a paid job, a volunteer Work Experience placement or through volunteer hours. There are many volunteer opportunities in Sooke. Sign up sheets are posted in the Career Center throughout the year. Students are encouraged to visit often to make connections to these events.

 

 

West Shore Voice News – ongoing opportunity to submit articles and photos about local goings-on in Sooke, and especially about issues that are important to youth. A great way to practice your writing or photojournalism skills as they relate to informing the public.  Many opportunities year-round, but especially in summer.  Contact:  editor@westshorevoicenews.com .
