Our operations

• Uniform shop receipts are emailed.
• Second hand uniforms are donated and available for purchase.
• Communications regarding events and P&C initiatives are published in the electronically published school newsletter.

P&C events

• Discos: Students are requested to bring refillable water bottles with no bottled water available for purchase. Payment/registration is via online.
• Munchie Day: Students are requested to bring their own containers with re-usable platters to place the various cakes/fruit platters/savoury items on.
• Grandparents Day: Reusable cups were encouraged to be used at the complimentary morning tea.
• Fund raising BBQs - No plastic utensils used with arrangements in place for recycling of cans/drink bottles if for sale (i.e at Election BBQ events).
