Parents and Friends
Association (PFA)
Obstacool Fundraiser
On Friday, 7 December 2018, the PFA held their Obstacool Fundraiser event and what a hit it was!
Despite the heat, students had an amazing time! They bounded over platforms, crawled through tunnels and rolled down ramps. It got every student active and smiling. Even the staff and parents had a go!
A huge THANK YOU to the many parent volunteers who braved that heat to support our students and spray them with water.
Thank you to the PFA for organising such an enjoyable event!
PFA Meeting
The Parents and Friends Association (PFA) will be holding their final meeting for the year on Tuesday, 18 December at 6pm at the VUE Restaurant, 1 Settlers Run, Botanic Ridge. All are welcome to attend, even new volunteers.
The agenda for this meeting includes reflections and feedback on 2018 events and planning of 2019 events. If you are unable to attend but would like to make a suggestion, please email the PFA or Emma Slocombe via the emails below:

Christmas Stall
This week the PFA have run their annual Christmas Stall. We hope the students enjoyed shopping for their families!
If your child brings home a layby slip, please be aware that you are under no obligation to pay for the goods.
If you would like to pay for your child's layby, please send the money to the office and the PFA will deliver the gifts to your child's class.
A sincere THANK YOU to our parent volunteers who gave up their time to support the Christmas Stall. Your assistance is very much appreciated by the staff and students!
Volunteers Needed
As you are all probably aware, the PFA have been low on volunteers for some of our events this year. At the beginning of 2019, we will be searching for more helpers. So we would like to give everyone some information about our existing members and the PFA, so hopefully you will all have a think about joining in.
All of our PFA members have part time or full time work or home businesses. A lot of our members also have children with special needs both in Primary and Secondary School.
We do not sit in a million meetings over the school year. We have approx 2-3 meetings per term depending on which events are being planned. Some of our "meetings" are held on messenger or on our Facebook page if a meeting at school can't fit in for everyone.
No one is pressured to put their hand up to run events or be at EVERY event held by us. Some tasks can even be completed at home such as emailing potential event sponsors or simply bagging lollies as stall gifts. We are friendly and very approachable.
Our first event of next year will be on the first two days of school; meeting and greeting new families and filling them in with info they need to know about our school. Please get in touch with the PFA via the email below if you have any questions or would love to join them.
