Welcome back, everyone! 

 

We hope all our students, families and staff enjoyed a safe, relaxing and well-deserved break. It's wonderful to see the school buzzing with energy again as we begin what promises to be an exciting and action packed Term 3.

 

A huge thank you to everyone who got behind our Crazy Sock and Hair Day on the last day of Term 2. The creativity on display was incredible, and it was fantastic to see so many colourful socks, crazy hairstyles and smiling faces around the school. Thanks to your generosity and support, we raised $231.15 – a fantastic achievement! We sincerely appreciate everyone who participated and helped make the day such a success.

 

With the OLA Fete fast approaching, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the wonderful businesses that have generously donated to our silent auction or have

become a sponsor so far.

 

A successful silent auction simply is not possible without the support of our local businesses, families, and broader community. 

With just under four months to go until the big day, we are reaching out to ask, do you own a business, or know someone who does? 

If you would like to contribute a product, voucher, or become an official fete sponsor, please contact Antonella and Liz from our Sponsorship Committee. 

Every single donation and sponsorship helps our school reach its goals and we truly could not do this without you!

 

Please reach out to Antonella and Liz at fete@olacheltenham.catholic.edu.au to donate or find out more information on how you can contribute to the big day.

 

Thank you, as always, for your ongoing support of our school community. We look forward to another fantastic term filled with learning, fun and memorable events.
