Huntingdale Primary School

Count me in! Watashi Mo!

Welcome!

Wow! Can you believe we have almost reached the end of Term 1? We hope all students and families have settled into the school community.

Class Representatives

The class representatives were announced in the previous newsletter. It’s great to see some grades already interacting and socialising with each other! We’re still looking for Class representatives for Grades 2 and 6. If you can volunteer some of your time, please let Watashi Mo know.

Colour Fun Run

We’re four weeks out from our School Fun Run’s Colour Day! We hope students are working hard towards their fundraising goals!

 

Currently, we have raised $3,207 of our $5,000 goal, so there is just a little more to go, and we hope you’ll keep supporting us! Remember, the money raised will be going towards improving outdoor learning areas.

Did you know that you can WIN a $20,000 Ultimate Family Package by setting up your child’s student profile online and raising just $1 online? Head over to schoolfunrun.com.au. Once you’ve created your child’s page there are some great things you can both do. You can sign up for online fundraising, pick your target prize, and even become a fundraising superstar! 

 

If your child would like to fundraise for the school's colour fun run on 28 April, just follow these easy steps to sign up: 

  • Scan the QR code on the Colour Fun Run leaflet your child brought home from school, or alternatively visit schoolfunrun.com.au
  • Select "I'm a student/parent - Sign up" and complete your registration details. 
  • Create a school fun run profile and link to Huntingdale Primary School - Oakleigh South.
  • Set up your child's profile and follow the prompts to select your fundraising target and create an avatar.
  • Share the unique fundraising link with your friends and family and ask them to donate to support our school's fundraising efforts. Making the first donation to kickstart things is helpful!

 

If you’re having any trouble setting up your student profile or fundraising online, please get in touch with the Colour Fun Run team on 1800 FUN RUN.

 

Thanks for supporting us with your fundraising efforts, we look forward to celebrating with an amazing day!

Are you a graphic designer?

Then we need you! The Watashi Mo logo needs to be updated so we can use it on promotional material. We need the skills of a Graphic Designer or someone with a Graphic Design background in our school community to help us out. Please let us know if you can help.

Next meeting!

Come to our next monthly virtual meeting on Monday 1 May 7:30pm if you want to learn more or get involved.

 

You can also join our private FB group, or get in touch with us on email at Watashimo.huntingdale@gmail.com.
