Sub-committee meetings - all welcome

Our school has a number of permanent working groups called sub-committees. These groups are made up of staff members and dedicated parents who meet ten times a year with a focus to make our school a better place.

Sub-committees are open for anyone to join and rely on the energy, ideas and hard work of parents to improve the school experience for all of our students.

Meetings are currently held face to face and we would ove any interested parents to come along and help us to make our great school even better! Details are below - feel free to contact the convenor if you would like more information.

Year 1/2 Working Bee

This year our Buildings and Grounds sub-committee are co-ordinating a working bee each term - one for families at each age level at our school.

After a huge turnout from our Foundation families in term 1, this term we are asking our Year 1/2 families to give up a few hours to help out with a big list of jobs to keep our school looking great and working beautifuly.

We rely on our families to help us during working bees as our limited government funding isn't enough to provide the level of upkeep required for such an old building and school site.

The Year 1/2 working bee will be on Saturday 5th June from 9am - 1pm and we will have jobs for all levels of fitness and ability. We will finish up with a free family sausage sizzle for lunch. We ask all of our Year 1/2 families to put it in their calendars now and help us out.
