Junior School Footy Family Fun Night
The decision has been made to cancel the event on Friday 18 August. Due to preparations for our other upcoming events, the Footy Family Fun Night can not be run within the planned timeframes.
We look forward to scheduling this event earlier in the 2024 AFL Season and also running the Footy Fun Day on the last day of Term 3 as we have done so in previous years. Information about these activities will be communicated closer to the date.
Junior School Father's Day Breakfast - Change of Date
The P&F Association warmly invite you to the Father's Day Breakfast on Thursday 31 August commencing at 7.30am. Please note this was originally advertised as Friday 1 September. A new RSVP is required for those wishing to attend; a revised notice was sent by EdSmart on 10 August.
If Dad is unable to attend, boys are encouraged to bring along their grandfather, older brother, uncle or special family friend.
Bacon and egg burgers will be available, barista-made coffee freshly prepared by Year 10 students, along with a Milo station for the children.
In conjunction with our Father’s Day Breakfast, the P&F will be selling football margin tickets for the AFL Grand Final. Margin tickets will be $20 each. Anyone who has the winning margin at the end of the AFL Grand Final will win $400. If you have the margin at quarter time, half time or three-quarter time you will win $50. With all tickets sold, the P&F will raise $1,450. Cash and card will be accepted on the day if you wish to take part.
An event for Kindergarten families will be on Wednesday 30 August and will be communicated separately.
Senior School Student Free Day
On Friday 1 September, the Senior School will hold a Student Free Day for Senior Secondary staff to participate in a moderation day with other Senior Secondary teachers across the state from Government, Catholic and Independent schools. The purpose of moderation provides teachers with an opportunity to work on and how to improve student learning outcomes and improve consistency of judgements.
