BINGO and RAFFLE

Bingo Evening
Our PTFA Bingo night will be held on Friday, 26 August. All the details remain the same, so please see our flyers around the school. Tickets are available for $20.00 each at the school office. Please get your tickets as they are selling fast and numbers are limited. Please bring cash to the school office when purchasing tickets.

Raffle Tickets
There has been a huge demand for our raffle tickets so if you are unable to sell them all please return them by Friday 19 August as other families are requesting extra tickets to sell. We would be really delighted if all tickets were sold and returned before the end of Term 3.

Business Day- tomorrow!

Business Day

On Wednesday 17 August (tomorrow) our Year 7 & 8 students will hold their annual Business Day and there will be a range of items for sale which students may purchase. The students have worked hard to create successful businesses. There will be playdough, bath bombs, scrunchies, bracelets, pencil cases, stress balls and much more! Prices will range from $1.50 to $5.00 so please send your children to school with some money so they are able to support this day. Please try to send small change as the girls will only have limited change.

Many thanks for your support!
