Parents & Friends
Since we last touched base, we have held our annual Movie Night which is such a highlight for the kids. There was pizza and ice cream for the days! What a night it was. We then moved to our grandparents and special friends morning tea while also running multiple Bake Sales. A huge shout out to the whole school community for your incredible baking efforts! We have raised over $2,500 towards school resources from the bake sales alone.

P&F Leadership 2027
After two awesome years as your P&F leads, Mel and I will be stepping down at the end of this year and we're on the hunt for the next crew to take the reins alongside Bec!
Being part of the P&F leadership team is such a rewarding way to connect with our school community, you get to help shape events, support fundraising that directly benefits our kids and work alongside a genuinely lovely group of parents and staff. It doesn't require any special experience, just a bit of time, some enthusiasm and a willingness to pitch in.
Whether you're keen to step into a lead role or just want to know more about what's involved, we'd love to hear from you. No commitment required at this stage, just a chat!
Reach out to any one of us or keep an eye out for more info coming soon. Our school community is only as strong as the people who show up for it, and we'd love for you to be part of what comes next.
As always, if you spot Bec, Mel, or myself around the school, please come and say hi. We love a good chat!
Cheers, Jez and the P&F Team
