From the Parents and Friends
Ruby Berkovic and Jennifer Opit
Hello!
We hope all your children are settling into the new school year well!
First P&F meeting
This week we had our first P&F meeting for the year and were so pleased with the turnout as well as all the fantastic plans we havefor the upcoming year. P&F meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7.00 pm. Please join us as we value your support and input.
Purim Disco
We have lots of events planned for the year. The first is our annual Purim Disco held at the School. This is always a highlight of the year for the kids and it’s a great way for the kids (and parents) to socialise and have fun. There will be a sausage sizzle and other yummy treats, music, games, activities and prizes for the best costume.
The date is Sunday 4 March from 4.00 – 6.00 pm.
The cost is $10 entry per child (adults are free) and $5 for a hot dog and drink. There will be other items available for purchase.
Booking is now open: www.trybooking.com/UCAU
Challah orders
You can eliminate the hassle of having to pick up your weekly challah and support the P&F at the same time. The P&F will be selling freshly baked challah every Friday at the cost of $4.50 and you can pick it up on a Friday afternoon at the same time that you collect your kids.
There are 9 remaining weeks of Term 1 but only 7 Fridays due to various holidays and the challot must be pre-ordered.
Pick up will be in the Adler Courtyard by the play equipment.
If your child is in Year K, please collect your challot from 3.00 pm. If your child is in Years 1-12, it can be collected from 3.00 – 3.45 pm.
ORDERS MUST BE PLACED BY WEDNESDAY 14 FEBRUARY.
If you are interested, please contact Ruby at rubykb@gmail.com ASAP for payment information.
