Fathers Day Breakfast & Stall

How lucky were we to have such beautiful weather for the Fathers Day breakfast last Thursday. A big thank you to Joanne Rees, Amanda Phelan, Nathan Phelan, Allison Phelan, Sally Penaluna, Natalia Presta, Tanya Nikolovski and Angela Vlasakakis that made the morning possible. We would also like to thank the Catering and Hospitality Group for helping with the coffee and hot chocolate on such a crisp morning. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended the morning, it was lovely to see all the smiling faces.

We hope all of the Fathers and Grandfathers enjoyed the gifts they received from the Fathers Day stall. We had a fabulous group of mums helping your children carefully select gifts for you. A big thank you to Lauren Hewes, Sally Penaluna, Allison Phelan, Melinda Gallicchio, Mary Hanna, Tanya Nikolovski, Angela Vlasakakis, Rowena Lanteri, Carolyn Czernotowycz, Rhiannon Johnson, Rachel McDaniel and Loris McDonald for their help with the stall. The children really do get a kick out of seeing you there on the day.

We would like to congratulate Amanda Phelan for winning the Fathers Day raffle. We hope you enjoy all the goodies in the hamper!

A big thank you to the Meszaros, Silva, Nambiar, Conte, Begh, Elzaibak and McTaggart families and Lakes Fresh Food Market in Taylors Lakes for all the wonderful donations. A little help or a little donation makes a huge difference; so thank you!
