VSB Volunteers and Helpers: Loretta and Cathleen at Dr. A.R. Lord

Aboriginal Education Support Worker, Loretta

Cathleen in the Dr. A.R. Lord Library

A.R. Lord is fortunate to have the assistance of many wonderful volunteers and helpers who come into our school and work with our children.  They help support a wide variety of programs run by the Vancouver School Board.

Loretta is an Aboriginal Education Enhancement Worker through the Aboriginal Education Program:  http://www.vsb.bc.ca/aboriginal-education.  She was in the school recently and helped out in Division 5 with holiday crafts.

Cathleen is the coordinator of the Knitting Club and recently organized the beautiful yarn bombing of trees in front of the school (decorating the barren trees with bright coloured wool cozies)!  She is also a volunteer for the One-to-One Children's Literacy Program!
