PFA News 

The next Parents and Friends Association Meeting is our AGM, which will be held on Thursday, March 13th, at 9 a.m. in the new PFA room, located in the portable behind the tennis courts. 

During this meeting, we will select our President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer for 2025. All positions are open. This is an excellent opportunity to meet new parents.
