P&F Events
Afternoon on the Knoll
Despite threatening to rain, the weather held off for our afternoon. It was an enjoyable afternoon for the attendees, who listened to the great tunes from R&B Soul Train while the children played a mixture of mini golf and other lawn games. It was nice to be able to enjoy the beauty of the school campus.
I look forward to welcoming you back to school on Day One of Term Two for our welcome back-to-school coffee van and the opening of the new playground.
Coffee Van
Dad's and Kids Camp-Out
Please join us on Saturday 3 May, where we will set up camp on the grassed area next to the Wild Space. Please arrive from 4.30PM and bring your caravan, camper, or tent.
A BBQ and fire will be provided. We encourage dads and kids to bring their own cooker or meal for Saturday night. Reminders and tips will be sent out to those on the RSVP list.
We recommend that dads and kids go shopping together on Thursday night to plan and shop for their meal. On Sunday, the school will provide bacon, eggs, and rolls for breakfast, as well as a coffee van funded by the Parents' and Friends' (P&F). Additionally, a campfire will be on-site equipped with marshmallows for the kids.
