Friday 2 May saw our EPS Fathers Football Team take on the Port Melbourne Primary School in a match that was full of twists, turns, mild injuries, and much competitiveness!
The team played with much gusto and determination and despite not coming home with a win all the friends and family who attended enjoyed a great contest!
Thank you to James Rosengarten for organising the team again this year.
FUNDRAISING & COMMUNITY EVENTS - TERM 3
The 'Big Night Out' Parent/Carer Cocktail Party
Friday 4 August, 7pm - 11:30pm
West Beach Pavillion, Albert Park
This is a really fun night, and the main fundraiser for the year, and all funds go directly to the school, benefiting our children - we would love your help!
The Parent's and Carers Association (PCA) are seeking donations from the school community for the Silent and Live Auction, such as:
SILENT Auction - vouchers or items: Kids activities, beauty/cosmetic products/procedures, books, homewares, clothes, classes (adults and kids), experiences, food, beverage items and restaurant vouchers, memberships etc.
LIVE Auction:
Holiday houses for a weekend, experiences, live event tickets, signed sporting memorabilia, art etc.
Thank you to all the parents/carers who have stepped into the Class Rep role for each class. It has been a tremendous way to get fast communications out to the community and remind them about events, and key school messages and we hope you have all enjoyed the Class/Cohort drinks that have been arranged by your Class Reps.
WHOLE SCHOOL KEY DATES CALENDAR
Don't forget that we now have a 'one-stop-shop' for all key dates for the year; it includes all school holidays, curriculum days, community and fundraising events, and when the kids need to be dressed in PJ's, footy colours, or their favourite book character!
We have had a fabulous start to the year with so many new faces across all year levels and enthusiastic ideas! Meetings are held in the School Staffroom from 7:30 - 8:30pm.

New committee members/volunteers are welcome at any time, please contact me if you would like to know more about what we do and where you could help. There are 2 meetings per Term and we work collectively to share roles and responsibilities; many hands make light work and create more magic! ✨
Thank you to all PCA volunteers, Class Reps, and Event Committee volunteers; have a great holiday break!
