To enable ordering for special food days and other school events, please download the CDF app. You will be prompted to enter your child’s name and class for 2026.
If you have more than one child at the school, please ensure that the information for each child is updated in the app.
SPECIAL FOOD DAY- March 20
We are delighted to announce our upcoming Special Food Day on Friday March 20!
Students will have the choice of fresh or toasted. These will be served at recess so please don’t forget to pack lunch.
Fresh take home 6 packs will also be available to order. As this is a fundraiser, families are encouraged to share this fundraiser with their extended family and friends. Take home 6 packs will be delivered to school on March 20. A big thank you to Baker’s Delight Northcote Plaza for supporting St Mary’s. Please see the flyer below for all details.
Easter Raffle
We are asking our lovely families for donations of Easter items for our Annual Easter Raffle. Please see the flyer for examples of items we would love to collect to help us create some wonderful prizes.
All donations are greatly appreciated and help make this a fun event for our school community. Thank you for your support!
WhatsApp Groups
We now have all the information from the school to set up the class WhatsApp groups. Please look out for an invitation to join your child’s class group. We also encourage all parents to read the code of conduct for the groups.
The WhatsApp groups are a great place to ask questions or share information related to Parents and Friends (P&F) activities. However, any questions relating to school events, classroom matters, or curriculum should be directed to your child’s teacher or school leaders via email.
COLOUR RUN
Every time we ask the students about future events, the Colour Run always comes up! A group of parents are organising this special event, so please save the date — it’s sure to be a lot of fun!
We Need You!
At our first P&F meeting, we were lucky to have volunteers for many of our events, but there are still a few spots open for upcoming activities.
If you haven’t volunteered in a while and are able to, we’d love to hear from you! Simply reach out to us or your class rep, let us know which days you’re available, and we can match you with an event where your help would be appreciated.
We also warmly invite any new families to get involved — everyone is welcome, and it’s a great way to meet other families and be part of our school community!
