Welcome Back!

We hope everyone enjoyed a restful break over the school holidays. Term 2 already! My how the year has flown.

Mother’s & Special Person’s Day Stall 

We are in full preparation mode for this week 3, term 2 event. For those new to the school, the PA host a stall for children to purchase a gift/s the Friday before Mother's Day. This year we are continuing the one present per child limit, but payment must be made via Compass before the event. You should now see a post asking for payment of $10 per child via the ‘Events and Payments’ section on Compass.

We are holding a gift wrapping session on Friday, 2nd May at 8:50am -10:00am and are looking for volunteers for this activity. There are also a few slots that still need filling for the stall day on Friday, 9th May: Mother's & Special Person's Day Stall 2025 signup sheet (note you have to have a WWCC that is sighted by the office team, and have completed the school's online volunteer induction course to assist).

Uniform Shop Update

The uniform shop will be open during school pick up time (3:10pm - 3:30pm) on the below dates this term if we have enough volunteers. Please register here to help out: https://volunteersignup.org/JKYWE

• Monday, 23rd June 2025 at 3:00pm to 3:45pm

Last term, uniform shop sales raised funds for Music ($382) and Art ($TBA). This term, we are raising funds for Library and Italian. Please help us support these specialist subjects!
