Parents & Friends Club

Welcome to another exciting few weeks with the Parents & Friends Club! Thank you to everyone who continues to support the PFC through volunteering, attending events, sharing ideas and helping us create fun opportunities for our school community. We love seeing families come together and appreciate every contribution, big or small.

Mother’s Day Stall 💐

Our annual Mother’s Day Stall last Friday was once again filled with excitement, smiles and lots of thoughtful decision making from our students!

There was such a lovely buzz around the school as students eagerly chatted about which gifts they were choosing for their mum, grandma or another special person in their life. The excitement before and after visiting the stall was wonderful to see, and the children had so much fun carefully selecting something special to take home.

We hope all the mums and special people enjoyed their beautiful gifts and felt very loved and appreciated on Mother’s Day.

A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteers who helped set up and run the stall:

Liyen, Laurissa, Pia, Borris, Daniela, Paula, Anthony, Alison, Davin, Kim, Mark, Harry, Ben, Genevieve, Daniel, Rianna, Hugh and Adam.

We truly appreciate the time and effort that goes into making these events so successful for our students and families.

Secondhand Uniform & Lost Property 👕

Thank you to everyone who continues to support our Secondhand Uniform Shop through donations, volunteering and purchases.

Our next upcoming uniform sale is:

📅 Friday 22 May  🕒 3:00pm–3:45pm  📍 Stadium

Payment via EFTPOS (Visa/MasterCard) only. All proceeds are fundraising for our school.

The Secondhand Uniform Shop is a fantastic way to support sustainability while helping families access affordable uniform items. We are always grateful for donations of clean, good quality uniform pieces.

Thank you also to our Sustainability Captains for continuing to assist with returning named items from lost property.
