REMINDER Volunteerism at Regina


Volunteering is a vital part of our Catholic School and an expression of our faith in action.  Without volunteers, the events and programs that bring our Regina community together simply wouldn’t happen. 


This year, our goal is for each family to have at least one person volunteer one time. There are many opportunities currently available and some you can even do from home!   


Please visit www.regina.org/volunteer for more information and opportunities. This page is updated regularly with opportunities for both adults and students.


Our faith calls us to serve. Our Regina community is stronger when you do. So we challenge you to consider: If not you, then who?

PRESCHOOL NEWS

At Regina Preschool, we love welcoming members of our community and parents into our classrooms to share their time, talents, and knowledge with the preschoolers. We are so fortunate to have such wonderful connections and so many gifted individuals who create amazing learning experiences. Recently, Nicole Ahrendt joined us to teach us about the beauty of nature and how we can better connect with the world around us. We were able to explore our Nature Center and add any item we wanted to the picture frame. We also had a special visit from Father Andrew, who helped us grow in our faith while enjoying a fun “Popcorn with a Priest” activity! We enjoyed our treat while Father Andrew read a short book that talked about how God has a plan for all of us. We had the chance to ask questions, explore new ideas, and learn from members outside of our regular staff.
