GECPA News

I don't know about you, but I am surprised every month at how fast the time flies by. We now enter March and only have just over 5 weeks until the school holidays. 

 

Thanks to the Year 7 families who shared their contact details with other parents. For those who completed the form last week, an updated contact list has been sent out. 

 

We have some dates for the diaries! The GEC Parents Association is holding some social nights so parents can get together and meet in person, perhaps for the first time ever (or first time since covid). See details below and come along. 

 

 

Social Night Out

Come along to meet other parents in your year level. 

Drinks at bar prices.  

Brothers Brew Bar 763 Hawthorn Road Brighton East from 7pm 

  • Year 7 parents March 22  Wednesday 
  • Year 8 & 9 29 March Wednesday 
  • Years 10, 11 & 12 April 5th Wednesday 

We hope to see you there. 

 GECPA Committee

If you are interested in helping build school community through coordination of social events and similar roles, do get in touch! We have had a number of members step down after many years of service, so we are looking for new members. Please email, or come along to the social nights and introduce yourself to one of the current committee members for more information. 

 

GECPA walking group

A small friendly group of parents walk locally in Glen Eira parks for an hour every Tuesday night. Email us to join our group and receive details.
