Phoenix Theatre Makeover

We're embarking on a journey to refurbish our well-loved Phoenix Theatre, and we need your support!

We aim to give this lovely little theatre the outstanding makeover it deserves, through funds raised by donations from parents, carers and the community. Suggested amounts from families are either $300, $200 or $100, but any amount is much appreciated. All donors will be listed on an appreciation board created once the refurbishment is complete.

Please help support our students and the wider arts community and donate now.

Donations for the EPS Playpod

Hello EPS Community,

As one of our playtime options at EPS we have a ‘playpod’ shipping container located by Brickwood Hall. Here we keep a stock of different objects and materials for students to use to create collaborative construction projects and get involved in building and imaginative play.

Unfortunately, some of the materials in the playpod are beginning to succumb to the effects of ageing, and as such we are hoping that some members of our community will be able to donate/upcycle some materials for a refresh.

Below I have included some samples of what students have created and a list of the ‘hot items’ that students enjoy using each Friday.

Tyres
Old/broken electronics accessories (Controllers, Steering Wheels, Keyboards)
Foam padded cushions / soft building materials
Timber materials (Safe for young hands)
PVC pipes
General construction materials which are fun and safe to handle

Please bring any materials to the 2A classroom at Brickwood Hall or email me with any queries at liam.eddington@education.vic.gov.au

Kind Regards,

Mr Eddington - 2A Classroom Teacher
