Items to be collected include:

Prep:  Christmas pudding, mince tarts, fruit cake

1/2:  Tins of food such as ham, soup, fruit, salmon, tuna

3/4:  Packets of pasta, noodles, rice

5/6:  Christmas biscuits, shortbread, chocolate

St Columba’s Ride-A-Thon 13/12/2019

Please save the date for this years student Ride-A-Thon. This is a fun day allows students to use the skills learnt in Bike Ed as well as an opportunity to raise money for new play equipment. Students will be issued with a sponsorship form and are encouraged to ask friends and families for donations.

For the day to go ahead, we will need many volunteers to help supervise. Many Secondary Schools will have finished by this date and we would be happy for big brothers and sisters to help on the day as well. https://www.stcolumbasprimary.org/volunteer-here/

We also need prize donations for participants. If you can help at all, please email andreg3@bigpond.com
