CONCERT DVD
A DVD of last term's concert is available for purchase. Please see the following attachment for more details.
CONCERT COSTUME RETURN
Thank you to all of our MPS families who have already returned their borrowed costumes and small items to school.
We are still waiting on a few items. As soon as these have been returned, we can proceed to pack them all up for another year. This includes any small items such as gloves, bowties, hats and sequin pieces, as they are often part of a class set.
BOOK FAIR
Welcome back to Murrumbeena Primary School for Term 4.
Our Book Fair will be running from Monday 17 - Friday 21 October in the IRC. Parents and students are welcome to purchase books from 8:30am until 8:55am and after school from 3:30pm until 4:00pm.
Please note that there will be no Book Fair on Friday afternoon and children must be accompanied by an adult when purchasing.
We would love some assistance with book selling before or after school, so if you have some time to donate and would like to help out, please contact us with your available time(s).
