Happy Thursday everyone.

An enormous thank you to all of the amazing Referendum Sausage Sizzle and Bake stall volunteers, donators and bakers, who helped to make Saturday's stall an enormous success. With your help, we've raised $4,304 in support of a new outdoor sound system for school (awaiting final profit figure after expenditure). When combined with last year's November sausage sizzle total of $1,800, this means that we now have approximately $6,104 of the required $8,000 for the system. This is a really amazing achievement for our school, that couldn't have happened without your help. Thanks in particular goes to:

• Our Sausage Sizzle Coordinators - Clare Mitchell Crow and Kate Garcia, supported by Tinny Sestokas,
• School Leadership - Brendan, Carolyn and Liz - and School Office personnel - Rachael, Nat, Sandra, Yvonne and Zowi.
• Stall Volunteers - Megan Reeve, Michael Caputo, Emma Rothnie, Carmel McNally, Jessica Cork, Jessie Brown, Carmen Griffin, John Macdonell, Anna Kelly, Katie Berman, Ryan Sharp, Sam Richardson, Rob de Maid, Mia Todd, Kate Spencer, Adam Kelly, James Mitchell Crow, Jason Mullen, Clare Mitchell Crow and Kate Garcia
• Our Donators - Unfortunately we don't have all of your names to say a personal thank you, but please know that your baking efforts and non-perishable donations made a huge impact on the success of the stall, and we're very grateful for every single contribution.

• A PA Annual General Meeting will be held late November. If you had fun supporting the sausage sizzle and bake stall or have ever had any interest in supporting our school, kids and community through the work that the PA does, then this meeting will be for you. Come along to hear about activities delivered over the year that's been, learn more about PA roles and activities, and even put your hand up to step into a role (solo or shared with a friend!). Every position will be open.
• FWPS Halloween Disco: Thursday, 26 October. If you're interested in helping out on the night, ensure you have completed the Volunteer Modules and submitted your WWCC to the office. A link to volunteer will be ssent out via Compass soon.
• The next 2nd Hand Uniform Shop openings are scheduled for:
  • Monday 23rd of October 3-3.40pm, 
  • Tuesday 24th of October - AFTER HOURS TheirCare opening: 4.30-6.30pm, and
  • Thursday 23rd of November 3-3.40pm 

From your PA Exec (Sharee, Kate & Tinny) and PA Committee
