If volunteer slots are full for particular stalls we ask parents to sign up for another stall.

We will require a couple of parents to assist staff with supervision of the GHANDA Fair Rides. Last year it was brought to our attention that some individuals were pushing in and taking opportunities away from others. We need to eliminate this in order to be fair for all.

Sign up to volunteer
Support the fundraising efforts by donating items for specific Hampers across each year level.
Donate a block of chocolate for lob-o-choc.
