Welcome back from the Parents group as we launch into another bustling busy school year.
The start of the year is always a good opportunity for the Parents Group to welcome newcomers into the school and remind everyone that you are welcome to come along to a meeting to learn what we do and if it interests you – we always welcome anyone who is keen to be involved (you don’t have to be part of the group you may just want to help out with events within the school which is wonderful).
The key focus of the PG is fundraising to support the kids in activities inside and outside of the school and extra resources within the classrooms.
2018 is a critical fundraising year as it is “Fair Year”. The fair is the most important of our fundraising activities and requires substantial planning, fundraising support along with requiring extra help from all parents within the school.
We are very fortunate to have Kelly MacKnight step up into the fair co-ordinator role this year. Kelly is currently planning the initial stages and mapping out key dates with Simon, once we have had our first Parents Group meeting the information will start to filter out to the school community.
First Meeting 2018: Tuesday 27th February 7pm Upstairs Luna (if you would like to contact someone for more information or let us know you are coming along to the meeting txt/call Kylie Ellis 027 4777 244)
Last school fair was a roaring success and this came down to the fantastic help of everyone within the school kids/teachers/parents/grandparents/businesses etc …. Start keeping an eye out for information coming home from your classrooms, Facebook posts and the school newsletters.
Thank you in advance for all the support we are going to need in the up and coming months.
