MOTHER’S DAY FUNDRAISING LUNCH
Not sure about you but the balls of our feet are only just recovering from the high heels worn at the lunch. What a fabulous day celebrating all our lovely BPS mums, carers and special someone's at Rippon Lea Estate. We salute each of you for embracing the party atmosphere, ranking up the bids on the silent auction and spending your dosh on the raffle. Between us we raised upwards of $7000. WOW! Amazing effort and would not have been possible without all your support and the amazing support of our sponsors - Please see the list of thanks below.
We (Em and Jan) thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this such a memorable event and one to repeat.
MOTHER’S DAY STALL
Huge thanks to Hydie Aboushkroun and Amber Sarda for organising the mother’s day stall this year. I think we can all agree that they did an amazing job and we hope all our mums, grannies and special persons enjoyed their gifts.
ELECTION DAY SIZZLE
We are firing up the barbies this Saturday to bring you the great democracy sausage and bacon and egg rolls to entertain the long line of voters at the BPS Polling Station. Thanks to all those who have already signed up to help on the day. Still plenty of spots left for cooking and serving so if you fancy a free meal, a place for your kids to play in the playground and do your bit to raise funds for the school sign up here: https://signup.com/go/fXasTLz
