Due to all this rainy weather, do you have a tonne of washing piled up?
Never fear!! The uniform shop has many good quality second hand items, buy extra pieces so you're never out of clean uniforms - all items $10 or under.

We have lots of second hand jumpers, size 4 - 16, for the cold winter days as well.

Pop into the Uniform Shop on Wednesdays 9am - 10am to pick up a bargain.

(Please note there's no exchange or refund on second hand items).

We'd like to say a BIG THANKYOU to our amazing volunteer Jeannie.
Jeannie has been helping out weekly in the uniform shop since her son started at our school over 2 years ago.
She also volunteers for breakfast club and was there at every P&C event, always willing to roll up her sleeves and stay back whenever needed.
We will miss you Jeannie!! 😘

Greetings parents and carers,

We are seeking volunteers for our Mother's Day stall during week 3. It is our little tradition here that during the Mother's Day stall we ask fathers, grandfathers and/or uncles to come assist so the students can keep their little gifts a surprise for Mother's Day.

If you are able to help out please contact us via our email [email protected]

Our lovely volunteers will open the uniform shop on the 2 days prior to school resuming.
So that you can get any last minute winter uniforms, before the kids go back to school.

Special open days:

Tuesday 21st - 9am to 12pm

The shop will resume normal weekly operations on Wednesday 22nd - 9am to 10am.

Alternatively, you can order online via www.mbpspandc.org.au, and it will be given to your child's class.

The Marie Bashir Public School Parents & Citizens (P & C) Association warmly welcomes you to our school community. P & C associations play a vital role in enhancing the educational environment, helping transform a good school into a truly exceptional one.

Greetings parents & carers,

I've been asked by Ms Marmarinos to relay the following message.
If you have any suggestions, can you please click on the link below and send them to Ms Marmarinos by the end of this week?


This year the multicultural team are planning to do one celebration per term. In term 1 we have Harmony Day. In Term 2 we have EID. In Term 3 we have the World Cup. In term 4 we have Diwali.

We are beginning to plan for term 2 and noticed there will be an EID celebration.

Before we beginning organising a whole school event, we wanted to reach out to any P&C members that celebrate EID to provide suggestions/recommendations on ways to celebrate at MBPS.

We have discussed potentially a school led incursion doing a fun activity around EID or something that the teachers can do in their individual classes.

We would love your input!
