The Cornerstone Learning Café – looking for volunteers

One of the key activities of the Cornerstone is its Learning Café. The Learning Café is a team of volunteers who work with children from Charlbury Primary School, who may have found home learning particularly challenging during the pandemic, and who now need extra help to catch up with homework and learning. The Learning Café works in collaboration with the school. So far children have really benefited from this one to one support, and while being better prepared for lessons, we are also seeing them growing in confidence and self-belief.

Although the summer holidays are now coming up, and the Learning Café will take a break, we are looking for volunteers to join us in the new school year. There is a particular need for someone who will do maths with the children, but everyone is welcome to contact us. As the team of volunteers grows, we will be able to take on more children.

Commitment would be one hour a week, typically after school hours, 3-4pm; there will be some online safeguarding training to take as well as a DBS check.

If you are interested or just have any questions to start, please do contact Daniela Jenkins danielajenkins@btinternet.com.
