Uniform Buy/Swap/Sell Market
Expressions of Interest
Do you have a lot of unused SMCM Uniforms? Do you prefer to purchase second hand items to save money and reduce landfill?
It has been proposed that we run a Market event to buy/swap/sell uniform twice a year at the change of seasons.
People with items for sale would purchase a table space for a small fee that would go towards fundraising for our school. Items would be available for a set price, eg all jumpers $20, but buyers would be able to see and feel the quality of a garment before making a purchase.
If this sounds like something you would like to participate in, either as a buyer or a seller, please complete the survey here.
Parent Volunteers
A very big thank you to all our parent volunteers who have supported us in the various events we have run so far this Semester. Such things as Mother's Day Stall, Harmony Day Sausage Sizzle, Athletics Day, Colour Run etc, would not be as sucessful as they have been, if we did not have the support of our parent volunteers.
All volunteers from this Term have gone into the draw to win a $100 Academy Uniforms voucher. The draw will be made tomorrow afternoon.
Don't forget if you would like to go in the draw to win next Term's voucher, you need to be volunteering your time at any one of our school events. The more times you volunteer, the more chances of winning you have!
