Community and Family Engagement

2025 SMCM Community Fair!
There are just over 4 weeks to go until the Fair! We have the rides booked in, food trucks ready to roll, market stalls on the way and DJ Junior and performance groups ready to put on a show!
Today all families will receive 30 raffle tickets to sell as a fundraiser for the fair. Each ticket is $3. If you sell just 15 tickets, you receive a FREE UNLIMITED RIDE WRISTBAND valued at $30! There are wonderful prizes to be won in the raffle as well as for the children of the families who sell the most raffle tickets.

A big thank you to our Fair Sponsors and those businesses who are supporting us by either donating their time on the day, raffle prizes or being part of the market. Please make sure you support them where possible and remember, IT IS NOT TOO LATE! We are always looking for more Sponsors, market stall holders and raffle donations. Please email kristie.hocking@smcmeppingnth.catholic.edu.au if you want to get involved.
Some of our Sponsors and donating businesses who are school families:
This Friday is also our first Frozen Friday - bring a gold coin donation and receive a yummy Zooper Dooper AND beat the heat! Another way for us to cover some of the costs of the Fair, while letting the kids have some fun too!
Catholic Secondary School Applications Now Open
Families with children in Year 5 this year are reminded that Catholic Secondary School applications for Year 7 2027 are now open. They typically will close in August this year, so if you are considering a Catholic Education for your child for Secondary School, please make sure you are organised to complete the forms on time and have made times to tour the school facilities.
