Mother’s Day Stall helps children affected by trauma

One of the gifts at the recent Mother’s Day stall was a gift certificate to support a charity called the Be Centre. This organisation do important work by providing play therapy kits to children who have been affected by trauma. We are pleased to share that with the support of an anonymous matching donor (a grandparent of the school), we have been able to donate $1300 to this charity. Thank you to our children who selected this gift, and our wonderful matching donor!

Calling on Dads

Father’s Day is coming up. We need some dad-power on our committee. We’d love some fun-loving fathers to plan out the activities for the morning. It’s not a big commitment and we hope that a few hands will make light work. If you are interested in being involved, please contact Justine.
