🍎 FOOD DRIVE 🍎

We are partnering with Anglicare Victoria to collect non-perishable food items to support families in need. Old Orchard families are always so generous with this cause, and we hope to collect even more donations this year.

Donations can be dropped at the office and will be accepted until next Wednesday.

Thank you for your support in helping make a difference!

We are very excited to announce that tickets for our Senior School Production of Shrek the Musical Jr are now on sale.

Our Year 3-6 students have been busy rehearsing for their performance and look forward to you seeing all of their hard work on the big stage.
