Term 3 Fundraising Efforts

Last term we successfully raised enough funds through the Trivia Night and Cadbury Fundraiser to purchase new Art Room Stools. Mrs Bosomworth has been waiting a long time to receive this upgrade and is over the moon! Under these conditions, I’m sure the students will be able to create even more impressive pieces of art.  

We continue to upgrade classroom furniture across the school, and now all of Foundation and Year 1 rooms have been fitted out with new tables and chairs, with an order placed for Year 3. We hope that we can raise enough funds this term to also purchase new furniture for all Year 2 classes next year.

Term 4 Events

DISCO Thursday 17th November

Dust of the dancing shoes because the Disco is set for Term 4! It will be held in the Sports and Performance Centre and Mrs Murray will once again entertain with her DJ abilities and playlist full of hits. 

DETAILS

Junior Disco: Foundation to Year 2 

3:30 - 4:30pm

Senior Disco: Years 3 to 6

5:00 - 6:30pm

*Students in Year 3 may attend the Junior or Senior session

Where: Sports and Performance Centre

Cost: $5 entry fee  (Payment via Compass) 

Sausage Sizzle from 4:30 - 5:15pm 

Cost: $2.50 each  (EFTPOS available)

Both a Junior and Senior Disco will be held to cater for the differing needs of students and Year 3 students will be able to choose which they would prefer to attend. To minimize the cue to enter the disco, we urge families to prepay and consent via Compass. Just like an excursion, this will allow teachers to escort students directly to the Disco at the end of the day, meaning parents will pick up students at the end of the disco at 4:30pm from the Sports and Performance Centre. 

Parents are not able to attend the Disco, but please be assured that there will be plenty of teachers supervising and dancing up a storm. 

Parents will need to collect students from inside the Sports and Performance Centre and walk students back to their classroom to retrieve their bag before going home. 

Cash payments will be accepted on the night for any students that are late to pay via Compass, but we would strongly encourage all parents to pay via Compass. 

Students that are not attending the disco will be dismissed from their classroom at 3:30pm as normal. 

Everest Dixie Cup Fundraiser

PLEASE NOTE: There was an error on the notice regarding the date. 

Students that order an ice cream will receive it on Wednesday 9th November. 

All students will have received a Dixie Cup Fundraiser order form this week. 

Please make sure you return the order form promptly to the office with the correct money enclosed. 

On Wednesday 9th December, students will receive their Dixie Cup ice cream during lunch eating time and will have ample time to enjoy eating their ice cream in the classroom.
