Parent's Association

We have a busy term with fundraisers and we are excited to get to our goal of raising at least $15,000 to the school playground this year. We need you as parents to support the PA and the school by fundraising for the school (like the Colour Fun Run), attending the events (like the Lawn bowls) or being part of the PA and organising events.

Picture Product Fundraiser:

Thank you for all who have paid for your picture product. All templates can be picked up at the office if you have not already done so. All templates need to be returned with the design by March 15th at 9am. If they are not returned on time then there will be an additional expense for shipping and you may not get the items back by Mothers Day.

We have raised approx $600 at this time and we thank you!

Colour Fun Run -

Thank you so much for continuously supporting our school, especially through fundraising. This term, we are hosting a Colour Explosion School Fun Run to raise money for The playground.

Start fundraising today. Did you know students raise 3 times more when they fundraise online? Visit plantadifference.com.au to create your child’s cyber-safe online fundraising profile. Instructions are in your child’s sponsorship booklet.

Let the fundraising begin! You have until March 25th to fundraise, so make sure you get cracking! You can also use your sponsorship booklet to collect cash donations. Please return your cash donations and sponsorship booklet to the office before March 25th. We have 22 days left to raise money.

The big day is coming! We are so excited to host our Colour Explosion School Fun Run on March 25th. with a 2:15pm warm up, ending approx 3:30pm, followed by the taco truck on the oval for snacks and takeaway dinner. Parents are invited to attend. On the day, make sure your child brings a white shirt for the Fun Run! If they are not going to participate please wear a dark shirt. They will be covered in non-toxic, high quality corn starch colour powder from head to toe! They will also need a water bottle and their hat.

We’re Going Green! This year, we have chosen to reduce our impact on the environment and Go Green!

For every $15 we raise, Carbon Neutral will plant one native tree or shrub in a biodiversity hotspot. Our goal is to plant 840 trees, and so far we have raised money for 175 trees.

Win an Apple Prize Pack! For every $15 you raise, you will receive one entry into the draw to win an Apple Prize Pack valued at $3,700. Raise more money. Receive more entries. Plant more trees!

We hope that you will use this opportunity to encourage conversations about sustainability and environmental conservation. More information about the Go Green initiative can be found in your child’s sponsorship booklet.

If you have any questions about the Colour Explosion School Fun Run please contact the office of Australian Fundraising on 1300 133 022. Thanks for supporting the school and we hope to see you at the event.

Lost and Found:

The PA would like to have a clean out of the lost and found every month, preferably last week of every month and are looking for 2 volunteers every month to help out and go through the lost and found items and return them to the kids. Anything not named will go towards the Uniform pop up shop.
