MOVIE NIGHT COORDINATOR
Movie nights bring us together to share a fun evening. It has become a tradition and students so look forward to putting on pj’s, eating hotdogs and watching a film AT SCHOOL! Not the typical thing one does at school. As a fundraiser for council, it allows us do more to help the school be an even better place to learn.
More than one person can share the role. It would be great to shadow one night with the coordinator to see how it’s run .
