School and Kindergarten Parents and Friends Association Meeting – Thursday 13th October, 9am

The next PFA meeting will be a General Meeting which will be held on Thursday 13th October at 9am in the Davey Building Conference Room (school administration building). This is a great opportunity to meet new parents, staff and a place where you can share your ideas for fundraising and how you would like to see the money raised to be spent on your children. All parents are encouraged to attend and toddlers are welcome.

Donut Drive 

The next fundraiser for the PFA will be a donut drive with forms due to be handed out this week.  

SpringFest Ballarat Market Sunday - 27th November

As beneficiaries of SpringFest Ballarat, Miners Rest Primary School and Kindergarten need to provide the Market Sunday with volunteers to assist on the day with various tasks. The PFA are asking for potentially up to 20 volunteers to fill various shifts from 6am-5pm. Please mark this date in your diary for when the PFA ask for volunteers you may be able to assist.  Further information will be available in the next few weeks in regards to what is specifically required.     

Cookbooks – Grow, Harvest, Prepare, Share - $5 per book

The Parents and Friends Association have produced this beautiful, full colour cookbook printed on luxurious high quality paper. This fantastic book is sure to last a lifetime, making it a great memento from our school, kindergarten and community of Miners Rest. All recipes featured in the book have been tried and tested.  The cook book will be selling for $5.

Student Display Folders

Through the PFA, we also have Student Display Folders for sale for $15 each. These are great for storing your child's reports, achievement certificates etc. Both the Display Folders and Cookbooks are available from the School General Office. 

School Lunches – Monday and Thursday through Quickcliq.com.au 

Lunches need to be ordered online through the website www.quickcliq.com.au. Please note: sauce is provided in each classroom, and you cannot specify which colour donut.  Some days, not all items are available or sell out quickly. We recommend to try and order as early as possible, with orders closing at 8.15am on the day of delivery. Please update your child’s profile to reflect the correct teacher and room (this saves a lot of time when the caterers are distributing the lunches into the classroom containers).
