Masterplan stall at Arts Festival
Thank you to all who took the time to leave a comment or suggestion on the feedback wall. We asked the community one question: What would you like to see as part of the TPS Masterplan? Below is a visual representation of the main themes emerging from the feedback.
Fundraising Survey 2023
Each year we ask the TPS community what they would like School Council to consider as a fundraising goal for the following year. This year we have been raising funds toward much needed classroom literacy resources and KITCHEN GARDEN project. In 2021 your generous support enabled the multimedia studio to be fully funded.
Please take some time to complete the survey and tell us what you think we should prioritise in 2023.
