Bright Nights - Saturday 27th Aug

We hope you all have your sitters locked in.  Bright Nights our annual parent function is all set for Saturday 27th August at The McKinnon Hotel (crn McKinnon Rd & Jasper Rd).  This will be a fun parent only event so we can all get together and have some bright fun in these cold winter months.

 

Tickets will be $50 per person and include canapes and we’re very lucky to have one of our school parents volunteering to DJ the event - so get your dancing shoes on. 

 

Purchase your tickets here via trybooking https://www.trybooking.com/CBBKE  

 

Bright Nights will be our major fundraising event in August, and we will be running a silent auction in the weeks leading up to the event.  To support this we are putting a call out to school families to see if you, your family or friends have a business and may like to donate an item or service to be auctioned. Some ideas below are:

  • Golf day experiences (anyone a member of a golf club?)
  • Weekend escapes (anyone own a holiday house?)
  • Food (anyone manage a restaurant/cafe?)
  • Wine (anyone have winery connections?)
  • Sporting / Entertainment experiences (anyone work for a sporting club or entertainment venue?)

Businesses involved in making a donation will be acknowledged and promoted on the Facebook page and school newsletter. Please put your thinking caps on about who may be able to assist and let's make this fundraising event a big one!

 

Contact Amy Ashford to discuss further.

Father’s Day Coffee Van - Friday 2nd September

We had so much positive feedback from the Mother’s Day coffee van that it's time to give the dads, grandads, step-dads and favourite uncles in our students lives a turn.  

 

We’ll again have the coffee van from 730am-930am, we encourage you to come a grab a coffee (drinks for adults only) and then your child can show you their classroom (classrooms will be open 8.00-8.45am)

 

The students were so excited to be able to show off their rooms. I'm sure they will be thrilled to do it again.
