News from the Chicken Coop

Thank you

Thanks to the Dennis, Harvey and  Roberts families and Carmel for looking after our gorgeous feathered friends over the past few weekends.

Volunteers are still needed!

Thank you to the families that have volunteered so far to help look after the chickens this term, we really appreciate your time. Weekends still available are 26/27 August, 2/3 and 16/17 September.

Don’t forget that duty families get to keep all the yummy eggs they collect while on duty. An information sheet will be provided with all the details prior to your duty.

Please email Mel at mkerwin@sjmitcham.catholic.edu.au  with a couple of your preferred dates and we’ll pop you on the roster for one of those. First in, first choice of dates!

Egg Lotto is Back!

The chooks are laying so Egg Lotto is back. Yay!

The Environment Leaders have once again started running a fortnightly egg lotto. All the money we make is put back into the keeping of the chickens for buying food and other resources. The next Egg Lotto draw will be  Monday 14 August at assembly. There will be a couple of dozen eggs available to win so get your $1 raffle ticket soon. Come and buy your ticket out in front of the school on Wednesday afternoons from 3:15-3:30pm.

News from the Garden

he Environment Leaders will also be selling the last of our freshly picked lemons from our school lemon tree. Come and visit us out the front of the school this Wednesday after school and buy a delicious lemon or 2. Only 50 cents each!

Wonder Recycling Rewards

The collection period finished last Friday 4th August. We took our last box of bread bags to the Post Office to send off.

Thanks to everyone who collected and brought their empty bread bags 

in. We can’t wait to share with you what sporting equipment we’ll receive later in the year.

Thanks for your support,

Environment Team
