We are pleased to report that in 2022 the PC made a profit of $25,252.15, after running events and contributing to school upgrades and projects to be reinvested in the school.  If you could not attend the AGM, you can review the PC 2023 AGM Presentation  and our 2023 PC Activity Calendar online.  At the AGM the executive team was re-elected for 2023 as follows: 

• President:  Amy Pate

PC 2023 Fundraising 

At the AGM,  PC members voted to support PC funding of two School projects. The PC will contribute $15,000 to each project, subject to School Council approval:

1. Creating a new interactive play space along Stanley Street; and
2. Upgrades to the sandpit. 

For 2023, PC will,  in conjunction with EFM and HIP, investigate a project to upgrade the kitchen in the Music Room. We will prepare a project plan and budget so that we can fundraise towards this target that we will share with the school community.

NEW: Class Year Level Stay and Play Afternoons

To enable further opportunities for families and our children to connect, Class Convenors, PC and the School have organized a series of “Stay and Play” after school events where families can stay on school ground from 3.30 until 5.30 to enjoy a casual catch up. Children must be supervised by a parent. Your class convenor will be in touch with more details for your class.  Siblings, including those in other year levels are welcome to attend. 

A reminder to have your Working With Children Check if you wish to volunteer at the school. Applying is free: www.workingwithchildren.vic.gov.au
