Please ensure that donated uniforms are:
- clean
- in acceptable condition - no fading, missing logos, holes or too stained
- must have a school logo or be purchased from uniform stall, so no Kmart/Target/etc purchases
St. Fidelis' Community Fete Day
Save the date – on Sunday 23rd March from 11:30am – 4pm, we are hosting a Community Open Day. Like the event we ran in 2024, there will be food/drinks, market stalls, children’s activities, school tours and much more. Closer to the day we may ask for some parent assistance to run specific activities, such as the BBQ, so please pencil this date into your planners.
Our 2024 likewise event was very successful. It provided the school with an ample injection of funds, but most importantly it brought our school community, along with our extended community together, with so much fun and positivity.
The P&F committee are looking forward to hosting this event, please reach out if you would like to assist, if you have a stall you would like to run or if you are able to source donations for our raffle. Many thanks!
