Save the date! Bunnings Sausage Sizzle
We are grateful to Bunnings Kangaroo Flat for offering us the opportunity to raise funds by hosting a sausage sizzle on Sunday the 22nd of December. Many hands make light work, so if you are able to assist, it would be greatly appreciated. Contact Emma at emma.clohesy@education.vic.gov.au to register your availability. A roster will be created closer to the date.

We are very grateful for the ongoing support offered by the McKern Foundation, who generously supply our fruit for Fresh Fruit Friday every week.
