Parents and Friends News
St Brendan’s Parents & Friends Committee
Dear families,
It’s lovely to see the kids settled in so well at school, it sounds like they have been enjoying the new playground too.
The P&F Meeting scheduled for earlier in the week was cancelled due to low RSVP's.
For the P&F to continue to organise events and fundraisers the support of the school community is needed. We hope to reschedule this meeting for later in the term.
Please get in contact if you can assist with the P&F activities this year, there is no set time commitment or requirements to being involved.
