The Mango Fundraiser

The mangoes on offer are Kensington Pride Mangoes.  They are packed in a single layer tray and each tray will usually have between 14 and 23 mangoes, (dependant on size) with a total tray weight of approximately 7kg.

The fruit is coming directly from the farm to you.  Your mangoes aren’t being held for long periods in storage or ripening rooms. Mangoes freeze well for use in smoothies. 

 

We have now met the minimum requirement and the mango order is definitely going ahead.    We've extended the date to get your order back - the cut off is now next Friday 14 October, and we ask that when you place an order from now on, that you send in the cash payment with your order form.  Please clearly label both the cash envelope and the order form with your name, child's name & grade. 

 

Payment will be required from those people who have already sent in an order form soon.   We will let you know soon, when to make payment.

Feel free to order for friends, family, or on behalf of work/sporting clubs ect. 

Expected delivery date is late November to mid-December. Pick up will be via school hall. 

 

Christmas Raffle Donations

Dear Families,

 The Parents and Friends Committee are organising a Christmas Raffle – there will be three hampers to win.  We are looking for donations from families to fill the hampers. Some gift ideas may include chocolates, candles, skin care, mugs, vouchers, books etc.

Please ensure that donations are new items & in date. 

We will be holding a raffle for the Christmas hampers and all the money raised will go towards a wellbeing space for the school.  You can leave your donated gifts at the office. Thanks for your help and support – we appreciate it.  

New  MEMBERS WELCOME

If you are interested in joining the Parents and Friends Committee, please feel free to come to any meetings or send us an email. 

 

We are always on the look out for new members.  The committee is a fun way to meet new people and be a part of something special.  The events we have had so far... including but not limited to; Family Fun day, Italian day, Mother's Day stall, the school play concession stands, Father’s Day stall and raffles. None of this would be possible without our amazing volunteers.  If you are able to spare a helping hand, then please join us as a general member.  There is no pressure to be involved in every event, we are just looking for people who could spare some time to share in our vision and bring with them, fresh ideas and perspectives that will benefit the school and children.
