RED NOSE DAY
Running for Red Nose ❤️
Hi Greenhills Community,
This August, I’m running at least 3km every day to raise money for Red Nose, in honour of a close friend’s daughter, Izzy.
Every Thursday at lunchtime, I’ll be running laps of the Tiger Turf, and students are welcome to join me for as many laps as they like.
Red Nose Day is Thursday 27 August. Students are invited to wear red, bring a gold coin donation and join me for my final run at school.
Thank you kindly for your support,
Mr Hick

CANTEEN
We are committed to keeping our prices as low as possible. However, rising cost-of-living expenses have affected our operating costs, and this is reflected in our new pricing.
There will be a price increase on the following items starting Term 3.
HELPERS NEEDED
If you have a spare hour on a Wed, Thurs or Fri between 1pm and 2pm, come along and help in the canteen. There is no food preparation involved, it's very simple and the kids love seeing parents there!
You need to have completed the Volunteer Induction, and sign up through CareBookings - www.carebookings.com.au - access code is JGU9L.
Helpers get a canteen voucher for their kids to use for their next lunch order!
Thank you
Miriam
