From our Parents' Committee

Dear CHC community,

Friday 25th October is International Teachers Day! A day to say thank you to the wonderful teachers and staff at CJC, for their tireless work in educating our children. As a thank you, the staff were presented with a delicious lunch. 

Diwali

Diwali, has been postponed due to the weather. The festival fosters a spirit of unity, joy, and renewal, inviting everyone to embrace hope and prosperity in the coming year. Come and join us to have some of the Diwali delicacies at CJC this year on Friday 15th November. There will be Lassi, Samosas and Milk Cake for sale. All funds raised will go towards the new senior playground. 

Diwali celebrations will replace Friday treats for the 15th.

End of Year Party – Friday, 6 December

As Term 4 begins, the Parent’s Committee is once again preparing for the EOYP on 6 December.   The date has been set and the rides are booked, and now we need to plan the other aspects of the party.  We are looking for people to assist with coordinating the following activities:

1. Silent Auction –sourcing prizes and uploading to the Galabid software program.  If you start now, it would only require 1 - 2 hrs per week.
2. EOYP Parent’s Bar – To successfully run the bar, we need additional support of parents to transport equipment and stock to and from our supplier. If you could volunteer your time and the use of a ute or suitable vehicle this would greatly aid the running of the parent’s bar.
3. Food – can you assist with coordinating the food offering?

Silent Auction – Donations sought

Do you have an item that you could donate to the silent auction – it could be an item, voucher, service or experience. Please get in touch if you are able to assist at caulfieldjuniorpc@gmail.com
