Harmony Day
On Monday 24th of March, we will be celebrating Harmony Day. On this day we are inviting children to wear:
- their national dress
- the colours of their country of origin flag
- orange (for Harmony Day)
As a way of acknowledging this day, we will be having a whole school TRIBE session.
We look forward to seeing your children celebrating the multicultural diversity within our school.
POPS Eggs For Sale
POPS hens are laying! We are requesting donations of 1/2 dozen egg cartons. If you have any at home please bring them to the school office.
Thank you in advance! POPS eggs will be sold fortnightly on a Friday at 3:30pm outside the Office. $4 for 1/2 dozen. They are delicious! A reminder notice will be posted on Compass before sale days.

See the POPS Chook Book (you will receive a copy when you collect the key from the Office) for details such as suitable foods to give the chooks but essentially…
- organise to collect the keys from the school office on a Friday after school or between yourselves.
- Check there is enough food (pellets/mash) and water every 2 - 3 days or daily if you wish.
- If you run out of food there are new bags in the garden shed, your key will open this.
- There are some seeds the hens love in a container in the garden shed – only ½ cup every 2-3 days.
- There are also some egg cartons on top of the old fridge in there if you forget to bring one.
- Scoop out any mess from the laying boxes/hutch and put it in the bin just outside their hutch for composting. If you need more straw there is some in the shed too.
- Collect and enjoy the delicious eggs 😊
The hens love fresh scraps from your kitchen! The chook key opens the garden shed and also the veggie garden – you are welcome to water, harvest or weed the garden too!!
