Hi Everyone,

What a fabulous end to last term – the Colour Explosion sure was a great way to end Term 1, along with a great Easter hat parade and raffle. Thank you to everyone who contributed to these events – from donations to the organisation of them. We also held another meeting and made some great plans for Terms 2 and 3.

Bunnings Cake Stall

We are currently working with Bunnings to see if we’re able to get a cake stall running on a weekend in the not too distant future.

Unfortunately, there are no spots available for a BBQ this year (we are on the wait list should a date become available).

Special lunch – Subway – Thursday 20th June

A note will be sent home early next week to place orders for this lunch.

Icy Poles

We will be selling icy poles on Friday 7th and Friday 14th June. There will be no more icy poles until the warmer weather returns (which hopefully isn’t too far away)! We are working with Junior School Council on an alternative Friday treat and we look forward to announcing via Compass what our winter treat or treats might be!

EVENTS – TERM 3

ROCK ON TRIVIA NIGHT – Friday 2nd August

Is there an inner rock God hidden away inside you or a funky disco diva? If so, you will not want to miss this event! Either buddy up to create a table or come as one, we guarantee you will have lots of fun! Silent Auction on the night plus lots of games. $15 per ticket. Tickets available from the office.

How you can help?

We are seeking Silent Auction item donations. There will be letters that can be collected from the office from 17th June (please advise which businesses you are contacting) or maybe you run your own business and would like to donate to the silent auction. All items welcome.
