Parents & Friends Club
The EHPS Parents & Friends Club (PFC) is a vital and essential group within our school community, organising social and fundraising events across the school year for the benefit of our students and community.
Thanks for your engagement with our cuppa and chat this morning, Friday 20 February. It was great to be able to chat over a free coffee or hot chocolate in the delightful sunshine about the PFC, what we do, and how you can get involved. It was encouraging to receive responses from current and new families about getting involved and keeping the PFC viable and vital.
Next Friday, we are hosting the Welcome Event at school from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. We are looking forward to sharing a lovely evening together on The Heights. Please refer to details on the Welcome Event page in this newsletter for more details, and please RSVP (this is important to let our vendors know how many people are expected).
