Parents & Friends 

Hello Community! 

🫐A huge thank you to Lisa & James Agnew for their efforts organising the Blueberry Fundraiser. I know there were some very happy tummies with bowls of blueberries being eaten over the weekend. Thank you again to our helpers Davina, Katie, Varsha and Emily for ensuring blueberries were handed out quickly. 

If you forgot to collect your blueberries, Sue in the office was calling all uncollected orders to arrange pick up. Please note that the school does not have the facilities to safely store perishable items, so orders such as blueberries must be collected on the day. 

🥣 With the sudden shutdown, there may be some families finding themselves in financial strife. 

Jess is our Community Support Representative and heads up a network of volunteers who help our community with meals or groceries etc. Jess maintains strict confidentiality, so please don’t hesitate to contact her if you have found you and your family struggling. You can contact her at: mprps.community@gmail.com

Similarly, if you find yourself in a secure financial place at the moment, you might like to reach out to Jess to see how you can provide confidential support to others in our community. 

👍🏻 If you haven’t already, please join the Parents Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/mprpsparentsandfriends/

This group was started by Trish Brimelow 6 years ago, and is a great place to stay up to date with school events and connect with fellow parents.
