OHR Twilight Christmas Celebration

The OHR Twilight Christmas Celebration is taking place on Friday 29th November, commencing at 5.00pm with our students singing Christmas Carols.   This is a great end of year family event (ALL are welcome) to enjoy! Food and refreshments will be available. There will also be fun activities for the kids, including balloon creations, face painting, temporary tattoos and a visit by Santa.  

You can pre-purchase kids all-inclusive tickets for $20 here  

We will need help at the event with BBQ and food/drink service and will put a call out next week for the needed assistance. 

OHR Disco

The annual school disco will be held in the school hall on Friday 6 December. DJ Jessic is back again with all the best tunes for the kids. 

Book your tickets now using the Trybooking link (https://www.trybooking.com/cwxij) or using the QR code on the flyer below. 

We look forward to finishing the year off with a boogie! 

Note: a signup zone link will be advertised closer to the event, as we will need some parent helpers to ensure the night runs smoothly. 

 

PFA Committee and AGM

The OHR Parents and Friends Association Annual General Meeting (AGM) is being held on Wednesday 27 November at 7.30pm in the School Library.  

 

The AGM will include the appointment of new PFA office bearers for 2025. With several existing members retiring from their position, changing positions or leaving the OHR community, we are putting the call out for a few new members.  

 

We would especially welcome parents to nominate for the roles of:

 

President

  • Oversees the running of the Parents and Friends Association and chairs each monthly meeting. The president is called upon to make decisions in the best interest of the school and the PFA. This role works closely with the Vice-President in a hands-on way to ensure all fundraising and social event requirements are met. 

 

Vice President (Social)

  • Organises and coordinates with the President and Principal, all PFA social activities for the year.  This role is supported by class rep coordinators and parent volunteers to put on social events.

 

Vice President (Fundraising)

  • Organises and coordinates with the President and Principal, fundraising activities for the year. This role is supported by class rep coordinators and parent volunteers to support any planned fundraiser activities. 

 

Tuck Shop Co-ordinator

  • Oversees the running of the Tuckshop by preparing rosters at the beginning of each term, determining and ordering food items and Tuckshop price lists. 

 

Other than the President role, each of the above roles may be shared between more than one parent. 

 

Parents are encouraged to consider joining the PFA as a wonderful opportunity to be involved in your child’s school community and initiatives that support the education and wellbeing of children at OHR.
