SPA Update

Art Exhibition 

During the Art Exhibition opening evening over 1000 dumplings were made by some of our international students, parents and International Student Coordinator Sarah Lin. They were incredibly popular and delicious. Thank you to all of you who worked so hard to provide the perfect accompaniment to such a great evening.   

 

Thank you also to the parent volunteers who helped run the SPA bar and for all the support the Shelford community continues to provide.

It's Mango time again! 

SPA is delighted to bring back the Mango fundraiser to Shelford in 2023! 

Prices

  • $30 a box

Orders close Tuesday 24 October 

 

Each box contains 4.5kg Bowen mangoes directly from the farm in Queensland 

Limited boxes are available in 2023, and orders will close when sold out. 

These are typically cheaper than purchasing from the supermarket, and the school receives $10 for the single trays and $15 for the 2 tray purchase. 

Delivery in last week of term 4 and details will be communicated as soon as possible. Please offer to your friends and family, neighbours and work colleagues to buy a tray.
