Dear Parents and Carers
We hope you have enjoyed a wonderful break and feel refreshed and ready for the start of school next week.
We're providing some information before school begins to help you prepare and be ready for the week ahead.
Save the date for the P&F Family Picnic on Friday 21 February to welcome our community back to school.
Enjoy the weekend and we look forward to seeing you on Monday.
God bless.

Purchase uniform items
Uniform is purchased from Nell Gray Uniform Concepts, either instore or online.
We are aware of the stock issues with sports uniform and Mr McMahon is meeting with Nell Gray today. We understand this stems from delays in receiving goods from China.
If you don't have sports uniform, we recommend a polo shirt in your faction colour from K-mart, Big W and other stores at a very reasonable price.
