Kali Cafe News
The Athletics Carnival will be on Thursday 8 September. The Kali Cafe (school canteen) will be operating with a cake stall for recess and pre-ordered food for lunch. The usual menu will not be available on this day. All students should have brought home an order form and lunch bags to complete if you wish to pre-order lunch. Please follow the instructions on the form and complete the form and bags and pay for your order at the canteen by WEDNESDAY 31 AUGUST.
Students, parents, siblings, grandparents and teachers can order lunch through the school canteen as well.
There will be lots of treats available on the day for recess and after lunch. Bring some cash or your card to purchase treats such as cupcakes, muffins, biscuits, ice cream, icy poles and/or juice.
If you are able to donate something for the cake stall, that would be greatly appreciated. We also need extra volunteers so if you have time to pop into the canteen between your kids races, that would be great.
Please feel free to speak to Bev if you have any questions.
Thanks for your support,

Waste Bin Signage Competition
The P&C Sustainability subcommittee are organising a competition to inspire some creative sign writing for the school’s various waste bins, buckets and tubs. It aims to help the school community know where to send its waste and how to reduce waste to landfill. There are templates for each classroom and their allocated bin to label so look out for these. Entries close on September 15th. Winners get a $10 canteen voucher.

Containers For Change
Reminder that you can donate your cans and glass bottles to the school via containers for change at the Knutsford Street Recycling Yard. Just tell them the money is to be donated to White Gum Valley Primary School and we'll ensure that it is used wisely for the school. Your support is always greatly appreciated.
