Parents' Association

The Parents' Association has a busy few weeks ahead, with some exciting events coming up! Here are a few reminders and updates.

🌈 Colour Fun Run - Friday, 20 November

Our Colour Fun Run is fast approaching, and it's not too late to get involved!

Student Sign-Up

If you haven't already, please make sure you sign your child up and create their fundraising profile. Every student who raises their first $10 will receive a prize!

Colour Run Student Registration

We are also still looking for parent and carer helpers on the day. If you can spare some time, we would love your support. Please use the link below to sign-up.

Colour Run Volunteer Sign-Up

Don't forget the white shirts! Students will need a plain white shirt for the day. Kmart currently has some available for under $3. With many other schools holding colour runs around the same time, we recommend grabbing one early before they sell out!

🌭 Election Day BBQ & Cake Stall - Saturday, 28 November

A huge thank you to everyone who has already signed up to volunteer or donated towards our virtual BBQ shopping list!

If you would still like to contribute, you can purchase virtual ingredients through Flexischools by clicking "Shop" → "Election Day BBQ". Every donation helps us purchase the supplies needed for this major fundraiser.

We will also be sharing more information about our cake stall and how families can contribute baked goods in the coming week.

We are still looking for volunteers on the day, so please use the sign-up link below if you can lend a hand!

👕Second-Hand Uniform Shop

Our second-hand Uniform Shop will be open this coming Monday, 2nd November!

It will be open:

Morning: 8:30am – 9:00am
Afternoon: 3:30pm – 4:00pm

As we head into summer, most children have outgrown their previous summer school clothes. If you have any shirts or dresses that no longer fit and are in good condition, the uniform shop is always looking for donations. If you have any items to donate, please deliver them to the school office.

We're still looking for a few wonderful parent and carer helpers throughout Term 4 to keep our Uniform Shop running smoothly. If you can spare a little time, we'd really appreciate your help!

🎄Christmas Wishing Tree

After the incredible success of last year's Wishing Tree, we're so excited to bring it back again this Christmas! Stay tuned for more information.

❤️ Thank You

As we head towards the end of another busy year, the Parents' Association would like to extend a huge thank you to our wonderful school community.

We understand that times are tough and the rising cost of living has affected many families. That's why we truly appreciate every donation, every volunteer hour and every little bit of support throughout the year.

Whether you've helped at an event, wrapped presents, donated ingredients, purchased raffle tickets or simply given up a little of your time, please know that your efforts are seen and appreciated.

It is because of your generosity and support, we've been able to raise funds for fantastic additions to our school, including our new BBQ and sound system, which will benefit our students and school community for years to come.

None of this would be possible without you.

From all of us at the Parents' Association, thank you for continuing to support our school and making Yarra Road such a wonderful community!
