Father's Day Stall is Next Week!
The Fathers’ Day Stall is next week and we have lots of lovely gifts for the students to purchase for their dads, grandfathers, or other special male role models in their life.
- Wed August 27th, 11am – 3pm
- Thurs August 28th, 8.50am – 2pm
Just like our Mother's Day stall, students look forward to being able to spoil the ones they love and really enjoy the 'shopping' experience during the dedicated shopping time with their class.
Please send along around $10-$12 (in coins or small notes) with your child/children for the stall.
We Are Fundraising With Tea Towels & Aprons and Creating Lasting Memories!
We are running a Tea Towel & Apron Fundraiser! The limited-edition designs will be made up of self-portraits drawn by students and their teachers, or their handprints (ELC). Just like a yearbook on a tea towel! The pictures and names will be arranged all together as a commemorative design then screen printed onto high-quality certified organic 100% cotton 50x70cm tea towels.
There will be 6 designs to choose from:
Curiosity ELC
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
'Class of 2025' Year 6 Graduating Students (Tea towels only)
Pricing
The price per tea towel is $20. If you buy three or more tea towels, they are $18 each.
The price per apron is $30. If you buy three or more aprons, they are $28 each.
The print run is limited so make sure you, your family, and friends don't miss out.
There is an example tea towel on display in the front office so you can see the quality of the material used and the size.
Ordering
Orders can be placed between now and Week 10, Term 3.
Order forms are on the table in the GSPV front office or at the ELC sign-in desk. You can also download and complete the form attached.
Orders will be delivered to the school in Term 4, making them perfect for Christmas gifts or as graduation mementos!
Dates
Complete and return your order form with the correct money in an enclosed envelope to Kim (Mrs Reddy) at the front office before Friday 26th of September.
Important
We will try our best to make sure no one misses out, but unfortunately there is a minimum order of 40 per design. If a design does not get enough orders, families that have paid for that design will be fully refunded. We will keep families updated with the numbers to avoid disappointment.
Scholastic Book Club Issue 6
Scholastic Book Club Issue 6 catalogues have been sent home with students this week.
Scholastic apps are available to download for both Apple and Android devices to make ordering through the Loop system easier.
There is the option to mark your purchases as GIFTS. When these books arrive, you will be contacted directly, rather than books going home with students.
Please also note that some titles offered, differ from the Christian ethos followed by the school.
Please Note: Cash orders are not accepted by the school. Orders will need to be placed online via LOOP by Thursday 28th August 2025.
Happy Reading Everyone!
