P&F News
Bunnings BBQ
We raised $1639. Well done (Yes, well done).
A big thankyou to all families who donated goods and gave up a little of their weekend to help on the BBQ. It was a great fundraiser, as well as a nice way to meet other parents. The students’ excellent maths skills were also on show. Well done kids.
Uniform Orders
Please return all orders and money by Friday 2nd December. Late orders will not be processed due to the tight turnaround time’s pre-Christmas.
Christmas Raffle
We are asking all families to donate gifts and sell raffle tickets for our Christmas Hamper. (Letter and raffle tickets attached). All donations can be left in the basket at the school. The raffle will be drawn at the Christmas concert on Monday 12th December.
End-of-Year Excursion
As you know we are off to Bendigo on Tuesday the 13th of December, the day after

This lab is the ‘sound like’ session and is aimed at F-6 students and will not suit younger children;the lab group is limited to 25 children. However, there is still plenty to do and see at the centre.
