P & F News 

Hello St. Fidelis' families,

The P&F committee hopes that all the St. Fidelis Mums had a blessed and enjoyable Mother’s Day celebration with their loved ones. It was so wonderful celebrating as a school community on Friday morning, and again the P&F committee would like to thank each of you for your support with the Mother’s Day celebrations. From the stall, to the breakfast, the activities, raffle and the assembly… MANY PEOPLE work together to provide a fun and inviting Mother’s Day experience. 

Firstly, thank you to the volunteer P&F members who spend hours of their time planning for and running around to set-up the stall, raffle, and breakfast event. To volunteer parent helpers who assist in the background, you are greatly appreciated. To the St. Fidelis' staff who put together the assembly and classroom activities, we thank you for your support. And last, but not least, to the VILLAGE BAKERY who once again supplied the breakfast boxes and croissants as FULL PROFIT sales! 

As a community we raised an AMAZING $5386.75! So, thank you St. Fidelis' Community, these funds will find their way back to our children in their internal and/or external learning spaces 😊

Upcoming Term 2 Events/Activities: 

Lunch Order Day – Thursday 20th June (Italian Day)

Apple Slinky Fridays – Every 2nd Friday (Terms 2 and 3) beginning Friday 17th May

Apple Slinky Fridays

What child doesn’t love a TWISTED SLINKY APPLE!  Coming to St. Fidelis for Terms 2 and 3, every 2nd Friday, your child can bring an apple to school and for a $1 donation have it transformed into an amazing, edible slinky! Thank you to the committed P&F members who continually donate their time to assist. If you are keen on volunteering to help with this event, please email parentsandfriends.stfidelis@gmail.com. Please see flyer for more information.

Loose Change Drive

“Pretty much everyone has a handful of loose change just hanging around at home.  

Why not give those lonely coins a purpose and send them along to school with your child?  Each class competes to see who can raise the most money during Term 2.

 At the end of the drive, the funds are collected for the school 

and the winning class will be awarded with a pizza lunch.”

Children are welcome to contribute as little OR as many COINS as they like, daily OR weekly… There are no rules… so Start Saving those coins!  Students need to deposit their coins into their allocated ‘classroom money jars’. The last day to add coins in Thursday 13th June, so get those coins in ASAP! Thank you for participating in this event!
