AGM and 2019 Roles

Our AGM was held this week and we thanked the many parents who have made contributions to our community throughout 2018. I would like to once again express my appreciation for their help in shaping the environment for our students, staff and families.

I would like to introduce the parents who have signed up to roles for 2019 (accurate 27 November 18).

There are still opportunities to sign up, and of course, all events will have signups in ITK throughout 2019. We look forward to welcoming you.
