Parents & Friends 

Things are getting very busy for the last two weeks of the term. 

We have our Hot Cross Bun fundraiser happening at the moment, with order forms due back THURSDAY 31ST MARCH. 

Damian is the new owner of Bakers Delight at Brentford Square and he is keen to support the school by donating $2.50 from every 6 pack sold. 

Orders can be collected on Thursday the 7th of April, and Friday the 8th of April. 

🥐The Family Breakfast is on Friday the 8th of April - it’s a great chance to catch up with parents, carers and staff after a long 2 years of COVID disruption. We’ll be holding the breakfast in the courtyard, and would love some helpers for the morning. If you’re able to help with setting up, serving or packing away, please pop your name down here: https://forms.gle/qYUPp5yDmm8B4EeX8 

Times to be filled are:

7am - 7:30 Setting up

7:30 - 8am - Serving

8 - 8:30am - Serving

8:30 - 9am - Packing up

🎂 The cake raffle is on - Wednesdays (Juniors) and Friday (Seniors) with tickets available to purchase for 20cents each or 6 for $1. 

Last week’s cake raffle raised $ 62.60

Thank you very much to Mais Sukkar for supplying the Junior Prizes, and Monica McIvor for the Senior Prizes. 

🥣 If you are finding yourself struggling financially during this time, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Jess who is our Community Services Representative. She will maintain the strictest of privacy and can help with getting food on the table for your family. You might need help with school snacks or lunches, or even dinners for the week. 

Similarly, if you find yourself in a secure financial place at the moment, you might like to reach out to Jess to see how you can provide confidential support to others in our community. You can email Jess at:

🍫Don’t forget to get your raffle tickets back for the Easter Hamper Raffle! Last year we were able to make 25 prizes from all your donations, so we’re aiming high again this year! Thank you very much to everyone who has donated chocolate or baskets to make the raffle a success. 

👍🏻 If you haven’t already, please join the Parents Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mprpsparentsandfriends/
