Thank you to our Mother’s Day volunteers  

We hope all our CPS mums and mother figures enjoyed a wonderful Mother’s Day last weekend, including some thoughtfully chosen gifts from the PFA Mothers & Special Person’s Day stall.  

A big thank you to stall organiser Mandi Katzenstein and her team of volunteers who assisted with both the wrapping of the gifts and running the stall itself last Friday. 

We also had another successful CPS Mother’s Day Lunch, held last Friday at the delightful Grazia restaurant in Glen Iris.  Almost 50 CPS mums across all grades attended and great fun was had by all. Thank you to Elle Cato, Sasha Madden, Jenn Needham, Laura Davies and Philly Jackman for all their efforts to organise this special annual event.  Thank you also to those who generously donated vouchers for the door prizes, including new prep parent Chris from Topolino’s in St Kilda. 

Beanies back on sale via Qkr

Our awesome CPS beanies are once again on sale via Qkr, just in time for winter! These high-quality beanies can be worn as part of the official CPS school uniform. Not only will they help keep our kids warm this winter but are a great way to show off school pride around the community.

The beanies are one-size-fits-most and are available to order now via Qkr for just $15. Orders will be delivered to classrooms once a week during the first month of Term 2. 

PFA Community Fundraising Lead needed  

A reminder the PFA are seeking a new Community Fundraising Lead for 2026.  We’d like to thank our outgoing Community Fundraising Lead Candice Hall for the incredible amount of work she has done over many years, particularly the 2025 fete.
