Fundraising Update

As we continue to celebrate the successes of the 2024 school year, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your unwavering support and ongoing fundraising efforts. Your dedication has made a significant impact, and we couldn’t be more grateful. In this edition, we’re excited to share important updates about two of our key fundraising initiatives: the Container Deposit Scheme and the Pancake Parlour School Rewards Program.

Container Deposit Scheme

The Container Deposit Scheme is a fantastic initiative to promote sustainability and raise funds for our new Year 6 play area. This includes a gaga pit, seating and landscaping, and new slides!

What Can You Do to Participate?

Option A: School Collection

Start collecting eligible containers: Please do not crush the containers, as we need to scan the barcode!

Transport your containers: We suggest putting them in a bag or box for easy transport to school.

Drop-off at school: When you arrive at school, please place the entire bag or container in the large blue bins located near the Science Shed.

Monthly recycling: We will recycle the collected containers each month.

Option B: Recycling Depot

Collect eligible containers: Please do not crush the containers.

Transport your containers: Use a bag or box for transport.
