From the Office...

Parent & Community Association (PCA)
is again participating in a Community Raffle as its major fundraiser for this year.
The raffle is sponsored by the Ferntree Gully Group of Motor Companies which provides all the prizes and allows the school to benefit by keeping ALL the proceeds from the tickets sold. This is then used by School Council to benefit all students at school.
We ask you to assist by selling a book of ten tickets (or more) at your earliest convenience and then returning the money, stubs and unsold tickets to the General Office by Monday 1 August 2016. This money can be in the form of cash or a cheque made out to ‘FAIRHILLS HIGH SCHOOL’.
If you have a student in year 7 or 8, you will receive a book of tickets in the mail. Other families should call the school requesting tickets if you would like to sell them for us.
Please note that there are two cars to be given away this year.
We look forward to your support for this major fundraiser.
Important
If your student has a medical alert for ASMTHA,
DIABETES,
ANAPHYLAXIS
or EPILEPSY
the school MUST be suppllied with a Management Plan - available from the appropriate website or from the school office.
Lost Property
If your student has misplaced anything at schools - please ask that they check at the General Office. Currently we have a black/silver bike helmet, a pair of black & orange sports shoes, an assortment of jewellery, spectacles and a variety of keys!
School Uniforms which are named are returned to the student as soon as they are handed in (please check that YOUR student has his/her name clearly marked on each item of school uniform.)
Reminder
Please update your contact details with the office if you change phone numbers, address, place of employment. We MAY need to contact you in the case of an emergency.
Reminder....Parent Opinion Survey
If you are one of the 125 families chosen at random to receive a Parent Opinion Survey and haven't yet returned it, please send it in as early as possible next week. The sealed envelopes will be sent to be collated at the end of the week.
Please have your say as the information is used to guide school decision making and is very important.
STOP PRESS.......
Congratulations to Mrs Saultry (Rhys 7B) who won the raffle for a $50 Coles/Myer gift card for returning her survey by the due date.
If you have not returned your Survey, please do so as soon as possible.
