P&F
Justine Hoffman – P&F President
Hi everyone,
This week, we bring two exciting initiatives (one old, one new) that we hope will give you that much-craved opportunity to meet and gather with other Emanuel parents.
SAVE THE DATE: Friday Chills is back
Last week we had the wonderful news that we can return on campus with our children.
So without further ado, we are very pleased to announce that the sugary hit on a Friday afternoon is back…for two special dates below.
For those of you unfamiliar with ‘Friday Chills’ meet at the basketball courts after school on Friday, buy your child (and yourself) a $1 icy pole, then hang out with other parents while the kids play.
Please note all parents coming on campus will need to show proof of vaccination at the gate. Don’t forget to bring plenty of coins.
Who and when:
- Years K-2 families only – 3.30 pm – 4.30 pm, Friday 11 March 2022 (siblings allowed)
- Years K-6 families – 3.30 pm – 4.30 pm, Friday 8 April 2022 (last day of term 1)
Emanuel P&F and OBK Purim Bake-Off
Our Big Kitchen is planning a big Purim Hamentaschen bake- off and we’d love to use this as an opportunity to get the Emanuel Community together to help those less fortunate. The goal is to bake 10,000 Hamentaschen to deliver to shelters, old age homes and hospitals around Sydney.
Grab a few Emanuel friends and join us. It’s free to attend. You just need to register.
Volunteer call out
Our big P&F goal this year is to friend-raise like crazy. But it will only happen with the help of volunteers to power our events. Please take 90 seconds to register your interest in volunteering. It’ will be fun. We promise!
