Welcome Back !
Hard to believe we are already in Term 3! This year feels like it has been flying by, and with only 21 Fridays until Christmas, there's still plenty of things to get done first.
📅 Upcoming PA Events
We have a busy and exciting term ahead with several fundraising events that will help support future projects for our school. We hope to see as many families involved as possible!
☕ Father's Day Afternoon Tea
Thursday, 4 September | 2:30 pm – 3:10 pm | School Gym
Join us as we celebrate the wonderful dads, grandfathers and father figures in our school community. Come along to enjoy a coffee and donut while spending some quality time with your child. We look forward to celebrating with you!
🎁 Father's Day Stall
Thursday, 4 September | From 9:00 am
Students will have the opportunity to purchase a special gift for the father figure in their life. To ensure every student has the chance to purchase a gift, we ask that purchases are limited to a maximum of two gifts per student. Gifts will be available to purchase through Compass in coming weeks so please keep an eye out for those notifications. We strongly encourage turning on push notifications for Compass to ensure you do not miss any important information.

🌭 Footy Day Sausage Sizzle

Celebrate Footy Day with us! Students are encouraged to wear their favourite AFL team colours to show their support. (More info to come)
🦺 Working Bee
Thursday, 17 September | 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Our recent Working Bees have made a huge difference to the appearance and safety of our school grounds, and we couldn't do it without the support of our wonderful volunteers.
This Working Bee will focus on repairing the potholes on the oval to help create a safer space for students to enjoy during sport and play.
If you're able to spare an hour or two, we'd love to have you join us. Every helping hand makes a difference!
👕 Second-Hand Uniform Sale
Our second-hand uniform program continues to be a popular initiative that helps families keep up with growing children while providing an affordable and sustainable option for school uniforms.
If you have any uniform items that are no longer needed, we would greatly appreciate your donations. Please drop them into the school office at your convenience.
Our Second-Hand Uniform Sale will be held:
- Thursday, 17 September – Before and after school
- Friday, 18 September – Before school
🪑 Buddy Bench
Our beautiful Buddy Bench has officially been installed!
A huge thank you Leo our incredible Groundskeeper, and Joel, one of our wonderful school dads, for generously giving their time to install the bench. We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our amazing school community. Through your generosity and support of our fundraising efforts, we were able to make this project a reality. We hope the Buddy Bench becomes a special place where friendships begin, kindness is shared, and every student feels welcome.
