Parents & Friends 

A short week this week, and a slightly shorter update from me as well!

 

Thanks to everyone who has gotten in touch about the future of P&F so far, it's always great to chat to people about the different ideas everyone has.

 

I'm still keen to hear from others on what is/isn't working, or what you would like to see.  I've put together a very short survey (completely anonymous), it would be great if you could spare 5 minutes to let me know your thoughts.

Just as a reminder, there are no stupid ideas or suggestions in this space, and absolutely zero judgements, so I'd love you to be as honest as you want with your thoughts on this.

 

Cookie Dough

Our delivery of cookie dough is expected next Monday afternoon, June 17.  If you have ordered, please arrange for someone to collect these at pick up, as they arrive frozen and we are unable to store these in a freezer overnight.

 

Colour Fun Run Prizes

If you ordered prizes following the colour fun run earlier this term, your wait is almost over!  We are expecting these to arrive at school very shortly, and they will be distributed to families next week (week starting 17 June).

 

Picture Plates

If you ordered a picture plate or other product as part of our kinder fundraiser earlier this term, I'm really excited to say that these have now been dispatched back to us.  We should be able to distribute these next week or the week after.

 

P&F Meetings

Our next meeting is scheduled for 9am, Friday 2 August in person and via Zoom (🤞).  If you can't make it but have any ideas, feedback or comments you'd like to share, please feel free to email me or reach out to your parent rep.

 

Cake Raffle

Our last cake raffle for the term will be held at next week's assembly.  Don't forget your money for tickets.  Tickets are 20c each or 6 for $1, and are available for students to purchase at recess each Monday.  There is no cake raffle next week due to the public holiday, with just one more remaining for Term 2.

 

The term 3 and 4 roster sheet will be available on the board at reception very soon.

 

Coffee Catch Up

Our next coffee catch up is scheduled for Wednesday 17 July (which is the first week of Term 3).  I have also had some feedback about potentially mixing up the days of these, so I would love to know if you're interested in joining us but can't make Wednesday's, what alternative days might suit you.  Everyone is welcome to join us at these, they're an opportunity to connect and catch up with other parents across the school.

 

Secondhand Uniforms

Our next secondhand uniform stall will be in week 3 of Term 3, on Friday 2 August before school and at pick up.  If you have any old uniforms lying around that are in good, wearable condition, please consider donating these to the school for resale.  The upcoming school holidays are a great opportunity to do a clean out of those too small uniforms taking up space in the cupboard!  

 

Donations can be dropped off to Jane at reception any time.  All money raised through our secondhand uniform sales goes back to the school.

 

P&F Board

Have you seen this week's updates to the P&F board?  If you have a group you'd love to share with the community, let me know and we'll showcase it as well.  Have an idea for a community group you want to talk through or get started?  Let me know and we'll see what we can do!
