PFA Sushi Day - Tuesday 28 Feb - orders now open in Qkr

Our first PFA Sushi Fundraiser Day for 2023 will be held on Tuesday 28th February and orders are now open in Qkr.  Sushi days are a great fundraising initiative, supported by local Carnegie business owner Ming, from the Carnegie Central (Koornang Rd) Woolworths Sushi section.

How / where do I order?

When ordering, please make sure you do so through the ‘PFA Fundraising & Events’ Menu in Qkr, rather than the regular lunch order menu.  

When do orders close?

Orders can be placed in Qkr until midnight on Sunday 26th February. 

Can I cancel my order?

If necessary, orders can also be cancelled up until midnight on Sunday 26th February - see instructions on page 4 of the Qkr guide on the school website for help with cancelling an order. You will receive a credit in Qkr that can be applied to future PFA purchases.   Unfortunately in the event that students are absent on sushi day, and the order hasn’t been cancelled in Qkr by the cut off time, we are unable to offer a refund.

Thank you for your constant support!

Whole School Picnic - Wednesday 1st March

Those of you who were school families last year might remember that the End of School Picnic was cancelled, due to inclement weather. It turned out to be one the coldest day in December for years!

Let's get together on the 1st of March, from 4pm to 7pm at Koornang Park (near the cricket nets) to celebrate the beginning of this school year, welcome new families to our school community and connect after summer. 

Some details to note:

• BYO food, drinks, rugs, table, chairs - whatever you need for a picnic!
• Children must be accompanied to the picnic by a parent or other adult.  Siblings are very welcome!
• There will be NO Carnegie PS staff supervision
• Please leave your pets at home
• Take your rubbish home with you

Let's hope for a great, lovely and balmy day!
