Parents & Friends' (PFA)
First a big thank you to everyone who helped out at the working bee. We had about 26 families come to help the staff and everything was finished ahead of schedule. The school looked fantastic on Monday with new tanbark across the playgrounds and the gardens all tidied up.
Whilst we are heaping thanks, the Dad’s Day Out was another big success. Thanks to Troy and Scott for organizing everything and a great afternoon tea. Everyone had a great time catching up over several hotly contested rounds of lawn bowls and drinks.
To all our cake bakers so far. Thank you as well. The results have been amazing to see and I’m told they tasted delicious! (I have yet to win 🙁). If there are any questions about the cake roster please ask.
It’s hard to believe it’s already Lent and Term 1 will be over before we know it! Lot’s still happening though. The upcoming events are listed below. Just like the cakes, we have had a draw to appoint a class level to lead each of our events this year. Reach out to your class liaisons if you see your class listed beside an event. As always the PFA will be there to help!
