Dear Parents and Carers,
We are already halfway through the term as we enjoy the last days of Autumn. There are many events taking place each week and lots for our children to get involved in. Despite our best efforts it is impossible to avoid scheduling overlaps in such a dynamic school. We apologise for any disappointment that has arisen due to event clashes. Rest assured, there will be many more opportunities to catch up throughout the remainder of the year.
This Reading Fundraiser is a P&F initiative to promote literacy in the Junior School and Pre-Kinder and raise funds towards the Performance Theatre. Notices have been sent out and the forms have been sent home. We hope your children enjoy this friendly challenge.
Planning is well underway for the Trivia Night on 5 August, the major P&F Fundraising event for 2022. We invite the school community to consider donating items for silent auction and raffles on the evening. We are aiming for an ambitious fundraising target of $25,000 and we are grateful for any assistance. Please send through your ideas or offers of donation to Ned Sweetapple via pandfsecretary@kws.nsw.edu.au.
The Year 8 Parent representatives have organised a Parents Get Together at the Carrier's Arms on Friday 3 June. This will be a wonderful opportunity to meet new families and reacquaint with old friends. Tickets sales close on Friday 27 May.

A very successful evening was held at The Carriers Arms for the Year 12 Parents a few weeks ago. It was a fun-filled coming together of families who have children in their final school year. Thank you to all of our attendees for a great evening!
