Notes for Parent Volunteers o Parents must sign into the computer file or report their duty to the volunteer team leader at the Resource Centre on the fifth floor before volunteering.

o Volunteer hours are calculated on a one-child per-family basis. If a parent has more than one child enrolled in our kindergarten, please be aware of this when signing in as a volunteer. Unless otherwise specified by parents, volunteer hours will be recorded based only on the oldest child’s family unit. |

Lending Rules:
1) Guidelines for borrowing/returning items by children:
Parents may visit our website at https://shck.edu.hk/, navigate to the PTA Resource Centre section, and download the borrowing form. Please submit the completed form to your child’s class teacher via your child on Wednesday. The class teacher will distribute the requested books to your child to take home on the same day. Books should be returned to the class teacher via your child two weeks later on Wednesday.
2) Guidelines for borrowing /returning items to the Resource Centre by parents:
Parents may visit the Resource Centre in person on the following dates to borrow books directly without completing a borrowing form. Books can be returned in person at the Resource Centre or submitted to the class teacher via your child two weeks later on Wednesday.
Loan Code:
- Each membership card is limited to borrowing two items at a time for two weeks.
- The penalty of each overdue item is calculated at $2 per day, $6 per week (based on Resource Centre working days: Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays).
- Please do not smear or damage the borrowed items. If any damage is found, compensation will be made at the original price.
- In case the selected items are borrowed, you can fill in four items on the form. The volunteers will search in order and only lend up to two items. If all items on the form are borrowed, the form will be returned to your child with a note indicating that the selected items have been checked out. Parents should re-select and fill out a new lending form, and return it the following week by the child or by email.
- The borrowing and returning schedule for borrowed items by the child is as follows:
The book lending form is to be handed in, and the borrowed items are to be returned, every Wednesday. The borrowed items will be distributed on the following day (i.e. Thursday).
* In case of holidays, the return will be postponed to the following week.
- Borrowing by children is only applicable to books. Teaching materials must be borrowed and returned by parents in person.
- Please remember to return your books on time to avoid overdue fines.
- When choosing items, parents should be aware that some items may weigh more than one single book. Please consider the weight of the book bag to avoid overloading.
