Parents and Friends' Assocation

It has been a busy first half of the year and we would not have achieved what we have without the generous time from the PFA and wider school community.  We successfully ran two sausage sizzles and raised some well needed money - nearly $4,,000 - that we were able to pass on to school programs to enhance the education experience of our students. 

 

The PFA leadership would like to extend their sincere gratitude to all that assisted in making it all happen with a special mention to Sharon Wright who pretty much made sure it happened on both days. We’d also like to thank our donations of sliced bread from Mentone and Thrift Park Bakers Delights and the $100 donation from parent Adam Gilroy-Smith from Empower Healthcare which greatly assisted in purchasing supplies.

 

A special shout out to the following PFA members and wider school community members for stepping up and helping out:
