P&F MEETING

TUESDAY 9 MARCH 7:30pm in the Multipurpose Room

Our last meeting could not go ahead due to the short lockdown, so we are hopeful to see many new and old faces at our next meeting on TUESDAY 9 MARCH. We will discuss and share ideas for events coming up in the next term. We would really appreciate your support.

MORNING TEA

Thanks to everyone who came to our morning tea this morning. It was great to be able to do this after such a long time.

Special thanks to Clemi Kohombanwickremage for coordinating and Sheleigh and Kylie for assisting.

HOT CROSS BUNS 

You don't want to miss this one!

Following on from the success of last year's hot cross buns fundraiser, we are once again selling a variety of hot cross buns, pies, pastries and sausage rolls in time for Easter this year.

We order our goodies from the Emerald Village Bakery - if you haven't been able to get there yourself, this is your opportunity to try the amazing food that they sell!

The Emerald Village Bakery fundraiser was the last one we had in 2020 before remote learning kicked in.  Feedback we received was that families wished they had of purchased more to fill their freezer with the delicious pies, buns and pastries to get them through lockdown!  The apple pies in particular were a hit!

So do yourself and your families a favour and grab some delicious bakery items for our St James fundraiser.

All orders will be delivered in the last week of term.  Pick up will be from the school with more details to follow.

All of the information you need to know about the fundraiser can be found on the flyer which is coming home to you this week.  Check your child's bag later in the week to find out all of the details about how to order.
