Parents and Friends Committee
Georgette & Harmony Fete Cake Stall, 2018
Morning Tea
Thank you to all of you who attended our first parents and friends morning tea for the year. It was fantastic to see so many new faces. In light of the success we will aim to hold one once a month, so put Friday 29 March in your diaries.
After School Picnic
Parents and Friend Committee would like to invite all families to an informal picnic after school. The picnic will be held at the Royal Park Native Garden- just a short walk up from the school.
Please bring your own picnic.
Friday 15 March from 3.30pm onwards
Australian Native Garden, Royal Park Nature Reserve
Mother's Day Stall
Please advise whether you are able to help with events for Mother's Day this year which will be planned for the second week of May.
Cultural Sharing Workshops
In light of the huge success of the (Moon Festival) Dumpling Making Workshop last year, we would like to host a series of cultural exchange workshops over this year. This will be an opportunity to share a significant cultural event, and could include teaching participants how to make a special dish, or share a cultural activity. Activities need to be suitable for children and their parents/ carers. Ideas could include:
- Diwali
- Eid
- Passover
- Greek/ Orthodox Easter
- A Spanish afternoon- churros e chocolate
- African drumming
- henna workshop
- Bastille Day
- Latin Dancing
- Bollywood
- 4th of July
- more dumpling making....
Please let Georgette know and we can create a calendar of events: georgette.antonas@yahoo.com
