Essex Heights Primary School
Welcome to an Exciting Term 3!
Welcome back, EHPS families!
We hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing break and are ready for another fantastic term. We’ve got an exciting few months ahead, with plenty of opportunities to come together as a school community, have some fun and raise valuable funds to support our students.
From our much-loved School Disco to our Father’s Day celebrations, secondhand uniform sales and community fundraising initiatives, there’s something for everyone this term. We can’t wait to see so many familiar faces at our upcoming events!
🛼 Roller One Family Event – Thank You!
What a fantastic way to finish last term!
A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Roller One Family Event. It was wonderful to see so many EHPS families enjoying a fun night together and helping make the event such a success.
A very special thank you goes to our amazing volunteers. Events like these simply wouldn’t happen without the generous support of parents and carers who generously give their time to help.
Special thanks to: Daniela Rende, Elima Pozenel, Adam Buchta, Paula Trakilovic, Rianna Wells, Mark Harrosh, Anil Janmohammad, Pia Ahmet, Lisa Simpson, Cara Ye, Dinusha Ranasinghe, Vaman Purohit, Yin Min Thein, Neha Choudhary, Davin Lee, Shen Loh, Helen Lee.
We are also thrilled to share that together we raised $900 for Essex Heights Primary School.
Thank you for your continued support of the Parents & Friends Club.

You can also help raise valuable funds through:
Ritchies Community Benefit Program
Did you know you can support EHPS simply by doing your regular grocery shopping?
By nominating Essex Heights Primary School through the Ritchies Community Benefit Program, a percentage of your purchases helps support school initiatives and community programs.
EHPS received $23.36 in July 2026 from the RCBP, representing 0.5% of purchases made by customers who have selected EHPS as their organisation to support.
Thank you to everyone already supporting the school through this fantastic program.
