Jeans for Genes Day - Casual Clothes
On Thursday September 19, the SRC organized for students to have a casual clothes day. Students brought in a gold coin donation and money raised on the day will be donated to Jeans for Genes. This great chairty raises funds to help scientists at the Children's Medical Research Institute find cures for the 1 in 20 Aussie kids face a birth defect or genetic disease. Kids just want to be kids, but instead of playing sports with their friends or catching butterflies on a sunny day, these kids are getting liver transplants, taking dozens of medications, or getting their next dose of chemotherapy.
Edenhope College raised about $130 for this worthy cause! Well done all who supported this SRC event.
Roo Reward Winners
The last Roo Reward winners for Term 3 were announced at a whole school assembly on Friday September 20. Congratulations go to Sam Batterham (Year 11) and Mason Colgate (Year 2) and to Mr McClure for displaying the College values.
Sports Shirts
The Parents and Friends Association has been working towards establishing a Sports Uniform for Edenhope College students (something the students have been requesting for some considerable time). The design above has been presented to and approved by school council.
Thanks to fundraising efforts from the Parents & Friends Canteen during this year, the Parents & Friends Association is excited to be able to offer the new Sports Uniform at a discounted once only bulk order price of $25.
Sample sizes are now available at the Front Office for students to try on and orders will be accepted until Thursday October 31 2019. The discounted cost is limited to one top per student. Please note after this date, the sports tops will return to the normal cost of $35.
Please return your order forms with payment to the Front Office by Thursday October 31.
