Parents & Friends Club

What an amazing year so far! 🎉

It has been another fantastic year for our Parents & Friends Club (PFC), and we wanted to take a moment to say a huge thank you to our incredible Essex Heights Primary School community.

Thanks to the support, generosity and involvement of our families, the PFC has raised a whopping $15,165 for our school so far this year! 🙌

Every ticket purchased, donation made, volunteer hour given and event supported contributes to this result — and we couldn’t do it without you.

Father’s Day Stall & Breakfast  💙  

Our Father’s Day celebrations were a huge success!

The Father’s Day Stall was once again a wonderful opportunity for our students to choose something special for their dads, grandfathers and special people in their lives. We were thrilled with the response from our school community.

After expenses, the Father’s Day Stall and Breakfast activities raised a fantastic $3,177.75 for the school!

A massive thank you to all of the wonderful volunteers who supported the Father’s Day Breakfast, stall set-up and stall day. There were so many of you who generously gave your time, and we truly couldn’t have run these events without your help! 💙

And a very special thank you to Daniela Rende and Kim Doan for all the organisation, preparation and behind-the-scenes work that went into making the Father’s Day celebrations such a success.

Secondhand Uniform Stall  👕 

Our Secondhand Uniform Stall last Friday, 11 September, was another great success, helping families find quality pre-loved uniforms while giving previously loved school clothing a new home.

The stall raised an amazing $665 for the school!

A huge thank you to everyone who donated uniforms, came along to purchase items and helped make the stall possible.

A special thank you to our wonderful volunteers Sophie Beecroft, Rianna Wells, Kim Doan, Alison Patchett and Daniela Rende for giving their time to help make the stall a success. 💙

And of course, a big thank you to Sophie and Rianna for coordinating our Secondhand Uniform initiative throughout the year.
