The Kanga’s are back in their now freshly painted classroom, our school has been successful in receiving a $30,000 solar grant from the government and I was recently told we have been allocated funding to place a new retaining wall around our playing field.
These maintenance and improvement works are very exciting. The solar panels grant will include solar panels on the COLA roof, rainwater tanks in 3 locations and software that will engage students in data collection.
A working bee will be held on 11th March to erect a cricket net around the cricket pitch. We are also investigating the possibly of replacing the cement pitch with a synthetic one.
We are very excited about these recent investments in our school and the benefits they provide to our students.

Bunnings Fundraiser
Our school will be hosting the sausage sizzle at Bunnings in Mittagong on Sunday 1st April. If you can spare a couple of hours of your time it would be much appreciated. This event should be a fantastic opportunity to fund raise, but many volunteers are required. Please let Liz McDonald know of your availability ASAP and then mark it on your calendar.
P&C Meeting Change of Day
Please be advised that due to a recent survey and to some members experiencing difficulty attending Monday afternoon meetings, that the P&C meetings will now be held on the second Friday of each month.
The next meeting will be the AGM on Friday 9th March at 3:15pm.
All new parents are welcome.
SRC NEWS
The SRC met for the first time for 2012 last Wednesday. Two fundraisers were decided upon.
A charity fundraiser for Epilepsy: “Go Purple For Epilepsy” will be held on March 21st. Getting involved is easy. Students bring a gold coin donation and dress in purple for the day. More information closer to the event.
Another SRC initiative is Freezing Fun Fridays. Ice blocks will be available for sale by the SRC on Fridays for 50c throughout Term 1.
Thank you,
