Icy Poles Are Back!

Icy poles will be sold this Friday on the front lawn from 3.20pm. $1 for a Zooper Dooper, cash only and correct change if possible. We would also appreciate any volunteers to help run the stall once or twice on a Friday in Term 4. It’s an easy job, and only takes about 45mins. Contact the P&F members for more information.
