2024 PFA PROGRAM UPDATE
A SURVEY has been developed to better understand ENPS family opinion on PFA run activities e.g. Mothers / Fathers Day stalls, working bees, social events, financial contributions, proposed 2026 events and how we spend funds raised. We value your opinion.
Please use the COMPASS LINK sent recently and add your voice!
Grade 6 graduation will be held on the evening of December 16th, and we are reviving the tradition of Grade 5 parents helping out. We're looking for about 12 parent volunteers from the Grade 5 cohort to assist from 6pm for a few hours at Eltham High School. Helpers will serve food and assist with simple tasks. If you can help, contact the PFA or your class rep.
Healesville Family Camping Trip
This event has previously been run by a family who are graduating this year, and the reins need to be handed on. This is a simple-to-organise event, with the previous organisers happy to do a full handover. If you think you can help, please get in touch. Questions and queries about supporting this event are welcome.
Working Bee
Plans are underway for this term’s Family Working Bee. Watch this space!
Lost Property
Lost pieces of uniform are an issue at ENPS. We understand it is hard for working parents to get to school to find lost uniforms, so we encourage you to reach out to your fellow parents, to your class representatives, to your teachers or to the PFA for support finding items.
The next Second Hand Uniform Shop will be on Tuesday 19th November.
EVENT RECAP
DISCO, 1st November
The PFA banded together to organise a school-wide day-time disco last Friday. The school was rocking, the lights were shimmering and the music was pulsing. There was so much great energy with students and teachers alike dancing, laughing and singing along to their favourite songs.
Big thanks to the Junior School Council for collecting song requests in the weeks before the event.
Thank you to parent volunteers on the day, Lauren, Marla, Erinn, Cameron, Penny, Jess and Lucy.
Thank you to teachers and leaders for supporting and enjoying the day.
PFA Disco Working group were Julia, Breisi, Mariann, Cassie and Nash.
Sustainable Schools
Unfortunately we have not been successful in securing a Sustainable Schools grant this time around. Thank you to Seth for taking the initiative and time to apply.
