Term 4 Week 2
Annual LNPS Scholastic Book Fair Amount Raised!
This year's Book Fair was amazing! Thank you to all families that came on Community Night and then throughout week 10. The amount raised was $3,532.50c, which gives the school $883 in rewards that can go towards buying new books for our library!!!
LNPS Playgroup
Tuesday the 24th of October was our very first LNPS Playgroup! We had three lovely families come along with their little ones to enjoy the play spaces and experiences we had set up.
Lauren Robertson is our fantastic Playgroup Coordinator and she has some amazing things planned for our Tuesday Playgroups this term.
Come along with your birth to 4-year-olds between 1:30 and 3:00 pm every Tuesday in our LNPS library for some connection-building, playtime and interactive learning.
