Toast:

Toast is available each morning for all students who would like some extra fuel before they begin the school day!

Thank you to our wonderful volunteers who prepare and serve the toast each morning! If you would like to join the roster please let me know or you can pass your name onto Krystal in the office.

Recycling:

At St Mary’s this year we are collecting any recyclable cans, bottles and containers marked with the 10cent refund. These will be transported to Chewton Service Station. All money raised will come back to our school to benefit our students whilst strengthening our sustainability practises to contribute to a healthier world. There is a blue wheelie bin located down stairs for these to be dropped off.

Thank you to everyone who has donated their recycling-we have two bin loads ready to cash in!

St Mary’s Primary School will be helping to run the hot food van. We are seeking volunteers to work a shift on either day at this event.
