Parents & Friends in Term 2

Welcome back to Term 2 to all in our lovely school community. 

P&F AGM

We held our annual AGM last week and have warmly welcomed three new members to our P & F for 2024 – welcome Gemma De Penning, Hannah Crawford and Matt Ryan. 

I am excited to be spending my final year at St Mary’s Primary School in the role of President again, with Mick DeMaria continuing in the role of Treasurer and Anita Gray in Communications. Laura Church has kindly agreed to step into the role of Vice President/Secretary for 2024. Other P&F committee members are Jess Church, Chelsea Anderson, Celeste Prygoda and Alena Ratcliffe. 

Ann-Margaret Carroll continues to dedicate much time to our P&F as our staff representative and Amber Feehan and Naomi Egglestone provide an above and beyond level of administrative support.
