Hi Community,
We can’t believe the term is over!
Challah orders for Term 3
You can eliminate the hassle of having to pick up your weekly challah and support the P&F at the same time. We will be distributing freshly baked challah every Friday at the cost of $4.50 and your kids can pick it up outside reception between 3.20 pm – 3.40 pm on a Friday afternoon. (Gluten free challah is available at $10.00 a loaf.)
The challot must be pre-ordered at the beginning of the term. Please register your interest here

The sessions will run after drop-off on Wednesday mornings in Term 3 from 8.30 am – 8.50 am, commencing Wednesday 14 July 2021 and running from Week 1 to Week 8.
