Christmas Pop Up Stall...
Christmas is coming to RHPS!
On Friday 27th November, the P&F team will be hosting a Christmas Pop Up Stall.
It will be a stall for children to attend, in a similar style to the Mother's Day/Father's Day stalls. There will be small gifts that children can purchase for family or friends. There will also be some items for sale that the children might like to wear to the Christmas Dress up day. The gifts will range in price from $1 to $6.
DURING THE DAY
Children are invited to bring some money along to school to spend at the stall. All children need to bring their own bag to put their bought items in – an old shopping bag or plastic bag is fine. During the day on Friday, all grades will visit the stall with their classroom teachers in their allocated time.
AFTER SCHOOL
The stall will also be open from 3:30 - 4pm outside the school for families to make any further purchases. We have a few left over Christmas trees left we will be selling ($15 each).
CHRISTMAS THEMED DRESS UP DAY
On Tuesday 1st December, children and Teachers are invited to wear a touch of Christmas to school. This might be a Christmas tee shirt or a Santa hat! The children can wear items they have purchased at the stall. This will coincide with the schools virtual Christmas Concert!
Christmas Donations...
After a difficult year, we thought it would be nice to support the community and do a Christmas Food Drive.
We will be donating our items to the Nourish Network in Mooroolbark again as it's so easily accessible by local families. We hope that this directly supports any RHPS families that might be in need this Christmas time.
If your family needs a little support this Christmas, the Nourish Network are able to help. Please message the Nourish Network Facebook page for a chat. Or, email lisa@ripplekindness.org
We are now collecting donations of non perishable food items and also pet food. You can donate other Supermarket items that struggling families might appreciate too. No toys please, if you'd like to give something special, a small voucher is a great option. Christmas themed foods and items would be fantastic as Nourish Network will create Christmas Hampers.
All donations can be added to the tub at the front office before Monday 7th December.
Your support is greatly appreciated.
