Colour Explosion Fun Run – Wednesday 19th of October
Thank you so much to everyone who participated and generously supported our Colour Fun Run! It was such an exciting and fun-filled event for all the students, teachers and volunteers and well worth the wait. Participants tackled an obstacle course, set up across the oval and they passed through several colour stations where they were covered in an explosion of coloured powder.
We’d like to thank all of the amazing parent volunteers and the wonderful staff who helped out with the event. We couldn’t have done it without their help and support.
We are blown away by the amount of money raised to help improve the outdoor play spaces for our children! We excited to announce that together, we raised a gross total of $12,498.00, which gives us a profit of $6,998.88!
The Student Lighthouse Team have been busy collaborating to put forward some wonderful ideas on how the money can be used to add some exciting new elements to our outdoor areas that we’re sure all the students will love. Stay tuned for more updates!
Le Page P.S. Disco – Friday, 18th of November
Cue the music, the lights and the good times!
We are excited to be holding a disco night for our students which will be facilitated by professional entertainers, Bop Till You Drop. This will be an exciting night full of hit music, dancing, games and celebration.
The cost is $6 per student and includes entry & entertainment.
The disco will be held in the school hall and will be run in two sessions. Students will only be able to attend the session allocated to their year level:
Junior Disco (Grades F,1.2): 5:30-6:45pm Senior Disco (Grades 3,4,5,6): 7:15*-8:30pm
*students attending the senior disco can begin arriving from 7:00pm for a 7:15pm start.
In an effort to reduce waste, we ask that students bring their own water bottles labelled with their name.
If you feel your child is likely to want you at the disco, please register as a parent helper.
If you would like to volunteer as a parent helper, please email lepagesocialandfundraising@gmail.com
All parent helpers/volunteers will need a current Working With Children Check.
Permission forms will be sent home with students. Please return forms and payment by: Friday the 11th of November. Only students who have returned their forms and payment by the deadline will be allowed to attend.
Students will need to be signed in and out of the school hall by their parent/carer.
