Upcoming in Term 4 we will be hosting the always-popular and super-fun (State) Election Day BBQ, on Saturday 28 November. 

 

Our State Election Day is coming up at the end of next month, Saturday 28 November, and the Democracy Sausage Sizzle and Cake Stall is back!!

 

New to BNWPS? Here’s how it works. On Election Day our school becomes a polling place, and locals from across the neighbourhood come through to vote. Our community team turns it into a welcoming community event, with halal sausages on the barbecue (including vegan options), a cake stall, and plenty of friendly faces. 

 

It’s a great way to meet other families, and a much-loved tradition at our school.

 

And BEST OF ALL- it’s a fundraiser for our beloved school resources, with all proceeds going straight back into the community!! 

 

WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU:

 

We’re looking for volunteers to join the Sausage Sizzle Squad and help us run the day. 

 

Roles include:

  • Set up
  • Cooking
  • Serving
  • Pack up
  • Cake stall
  • Barbecue coordinator, present at set up and pack down (not necessarily all day)

 

Whether you can give an hour or a few, every shift helps, and more hands means a lighter load for our regular organisers. Volunteering is flexible and low-pressure, and new faces are always welcome.

 

Cake donors wanted too! If you’d like to bake for the stall, add your donation to the cake stall tab on the same sheet.

 

To volunteer: pop your name on the sign-up sheet HERE!!
