Special Food Day - Ice Cream

Ice cream day at St John’s! Order your ice-cream online here

The Parent’s Association have organised an ice cream van to come to school next Tuesday, 1st April at 1.30pm!

Students can choose from soft serve ice cream with their choice of toppings (sprinkles, choc dip and sherbet) or gelato (dairy free options are available).

 

A CDF Pay link will has been sent out this week for parents to place orders and children will receive a token to give to the ice cream seller when they collect their ice cream or gelato. The price is $7 each with no extra charge for toppings. 

Order your ice-cream online here

 

Please place your order by 9:30am Monday, 31 March.

 

If your child has other allergies and can’t order from the ice cream van please use the online form to purchase, and then email Emily Boyd at emily_and_josh@hotmail.com and we will arrange an alternative so they don’t miss out.

Easter Raffle

Tickets have been sent home for the Annual Easter Raffle, and families can begin to drop off donations of Easter eggs to the office this week. Last year we had an abundance of eggs and there were lots of happy faces as the winners were called, so hopefully we can do the same this year. The raffle will be drawn at assembly, 12.45pm on Friday, 4 April.

St John's Second Hand Uniform Sale

Future Events and Activities

The Mother’s Day Stall will be held on Thursday, 8 May and we are looking for volunteers to help price the gifts and run the stall on the day. Please let us know if you are available to assist. Dads are especially welcome to help, so the kids can keep their purchases top secret from Mum! 

 

The Mother’s Day Breakfast will be on Friday, 9 May from 7.30 – 8.45am. Nick McKay is coordinating this again, so please get in touch with him if you are available to help out.

 

Throughout The Year

Later in the year we will be holding more Special Food Days, the Colour Run, and possibly a Bunnings BBQ fundraiser. Make sure you check the PA page in the newsletter for details.
