NEXT PFA MEETING - Tuesday 18th May

Calling for more hands!! 

We know you’re frantically busy - getting to the school’s working bee is perhaps the last thing you feel like doing on a Sunday afternoon! We get it but eh, we need you!

The PFA consists of a small group of parents that run the parent-supported events at the school.Think of the PFA when you hear of the second-hand uniform shop; the walkathon, the disco; the footy lunches; social events; and that 100yr anniversary celebration we had last year…

We don’t need you to be involved in everything but if you’ve got a spare hour; an afternoon please get in touch with us, any input will be appreciated! 🙂

Second Hand Uniforms 

Next stall will be held on May 16th 8:30am - 9:30am. A big thank you to Alyssa for being the organiser of the uniform shop, and helping provide such an important service to our school community. Alyssa will be stepping down from the role this year and we will need some ENPS community members to help out from mid-year. Could that help come from you? Reach out if you can help or join this group directly⇒ https://chat.whatsapp.com/DSpL0NgOjkG1qsRyjmpY2R 

Walkathon

Each year at ENPS the PFA supports the school in facilitating this fundraising event. Each class decorates a banner and comes up with a chant. The class groups walk from the oval along the diamond creek track. Votes are made for the best chanters and the best banner, with a prize for the winning class. There will be a small working group of parents helping cut the calico and providing support on the day. If you can donate some of your time for this event, please join⇒
