I help in school in my daughters classes voluntarily in lessons each week. I do feel this is a privilege and mostly very enjoyable, but equally it does help out and has sometimes in the past been repetitive. In the last year or two our school has changed how they choose people to help with school trips. They often seem to chose people who don't usually help out to give them a go too (depends on the teacher). I work too and miss income to help out. Whilst I understand choosing others, it doesn't really feel fair. Couldn't they volunteer to help out for a day in school? They only volunteer for trips. The school seems to accept most offers of help. It just feels a bit unkind to ignore those who help regularly when there is something fun to do but perhaps I am missing something? Perhaps teachers have a different perspective. I'm sure I will breeze on, get over myself and not feel bad soon enough.
