Parents and Friends News

Dear families,

 

The latest Parents Social Night, held on Friday 5th August 2022, was a success. There was plenty of conversation and everyone had a great night. 

 

Next week is Book Week at school.  The P&F have booked a coffee van to come to school on the Friday morning of the Book Week Parade.  We hope families will enjoy this opportunity to get a hot drink prior to the parades. 

 

Orders for the Father’s Day Stall are open now through CDF Pay.  There are some great gift options available. 

 

We plan to use funds raised to acknowledge our wonderful teachers on World Teachers Day in Term 4 and extra resources for the students.

 

Planning is also underway for 2023 - let us know if you have any ideas of what you would like to see at the school.

 

Bianca and Jacklyn

Review of Events and Fundraising Information

Parents Social Night - Friday, 5th August 2022

A great evening was had by all at the Parents Social Night on Friday, 5th August at Bicaro’s Ristorante, although there were a couple of unhappy people at the end of the night due to the football game result!

 

These nights are a great opportunity to get to know other parents in our school community.  There also was a number of apologies with families having other commitments.
