From the Parents and Friends

Ruby Berkovic and Jen Opit

Hi Everyone,

The last full week of school for the year has concluded, and this is our last article of 2019!

We hope you have all had a great year.

The Family Meal: Emanuel Cookbook

The Emanuel School Cookbook, “The Family Meal,” is almost sold out.

The book is amazing – it is full of a variety of delicious and treasured recipes kindly submitted by all of you. There are beautiful photos taken by the wonderful Ofer Levy, as well as illustrations by our primary students. Books cost $45 and are a must have (and a great gift as well). 

Order your copy now so you don’t miss out at https://www.trybooking.com/BFSUL

We will also be selling the book before the K-2 and 3-6 Presentation Ceremonies, so you can grab yours then.

 

Friday Chill Out

We hope to see you all after school today on the basketball courts for an icy-pole and a chance to mingle.

**Please note, parents must supervise and be responsible for their kids at all times in the designated Friday Chill Out area.** 

This will be the last Friday get-together for the year, so thanks again to Justine Hofman and her team for this fantastic initiative.

Thank You

We would like to take a moment to thank our P&F Executive for all their tireless work and support: Jo Rose, Michelle Stockley and Karen Endrey. Thank you to Lindi Bloch for organising the camping trips. We are very appreciative of all the involved parents and grandparents and Emanuel School staff members who have helped out this year in a variety of ways. Thank you to the beautiful group of parents who showed up for our monthly meetings and to help at all the events – we appreciate everything you do so very much!  A special thanks to Andrew Watt, Tany Milner and Sonia Newell for their support.
