Message from School Council

Yesterday we wrapped up our final School Council meeting for 2025 — and our second-to-last meeting of this school year (Feb–Feb cycle).We spent some time looking back on everything we’ve achieved, and we want to send a huge THANK YOU to our amazing school community. Your support has helped make this year an incredible success!

Here’s a sneak peek at what your fundraising this year has made possible:

🌿 Beautiful new landscaping supported by the fete — and there’s more coming!In the next few months, the entire school perimeter fence will be replaced, and we’ll be adding a fantastic outdoor wellbeing instrument for the kids to explore (see picture below)Plus, thanks to the success of our mango drive, the kitchen garden will soon get new planting boxes, fruit trees, and even chickens!

🎨 The Colour RunThe kids had an absolute blast — and because of it, we’ll be adding new sports equipment, including two new soccer goals and a soccer uniform for competitions.

🎉 Coming early Feb ’26:A brand-new Gaga Pit near the bike shed! These things are so popular that this was the earliest installation date! If you’re wondering what a Gaga Pit is, just ask your kids — or check out the picture below. Lots of fun to be had!

If you want to get involved with our future fundraising, then please come and join us next Monday 15th December at The Croxton-7.30-9pm for our first meet & greet of those interested in getting involved in the community and supporting our biggest fundraising event of the year-The NPS Fete 2026!  

If you can’t make it but want to still know more, please email Jo Pitt & Sara Nicholls (2026 fete organisers) on 1401-npsfete@schools.vic.edu.au

Merry Christmas from the NPS school council and we look forward to next year!
