SKiPPS Needs your help!
Landscaper/handyperson needed to lay pavers
Last year our school ran a fundraiser where families designed and bought a paver to be laid around our school playground (alongside similar pavers that we sold in 2011 and 2017).
After a number of covid-related delays, the pavers have now arrived at school and are ready to be laid.
If any parents or carers have any landscaping skills and think they could help the school to finish off this great fundraiser then we would love to hear from you. please email Neil at neil.scott@education.vic.gov.au
School Council Sub-committees
Our school has a number of permanent working groups called sub-committees. These groups are made up of staff members and dedicated parents who meet ten times a year with a focus to make our school a better place.
Sub-committees are open for anyone to join and rely on the energy, ideas and hard work of parents to improve the school experience for all of our students.
The groups are open for all parents to join and contribute to so feel free to come along to any of the folloiwing meetings.
