Celebrating our 2024 social and fundraising achievements!

What a year it has been! A huge thank you to everyone who supported the activities and events held across 2024. Whether you volunteered, attended events or donated, your contributions have been vital in making our community thrive. This year, we:

Ran nine activities and events which brought us all together, including BBQs, bake stalls, lantern festival and our new TPS summer sessions.

Raised over $30K through the mango fundraiser, colour run and regular gatherings which has enabled us to provide new sports tops for our kids, enhance our schoolyard, and even purchase our very own TPS fairy floss machine!

Looking ahead to 2025, we want your input on how to best use the funds raised and are keen to pull together community suggestions that we can take to school council - share your suggestions HERE.

We’re excited about the calendar of events, check it out and start locking the dates away! Based on your feedback, we will be nominating classes to sponsor events as we have done in the past — more details coming early next year.

Save the Date – TPS Second Hand Bazaar is on Sunday, 23 March 2025.

Please save your gently used clothing (adults & kids), toys, books, and household wares to donate in the new year.

Details on collections will follow soon.
