Activities -

🛠️ We also have two photo booths for families to come along and have their photos taken in front of the backdrop.
Portrait Sales -
🛠️ Following on from the success of mothers day, our students have spent time drawing and painting lovely portraits of their dads.
🛠️ These portraits will be available to purchase for $1 with proceeds going to a local charity (to be decided by the P&C).
🛠️ There will be two separate areas for sales, under the PG Shelter.
One for K-2 and Support Classes (separated into stages and grades).
The other is 3-6 (separated into stages and grades).
Please check the signs carefully to ensure you are in the right line.
Toilets -
🛠️ If you need to use the toilet while at our school, please only use the toilet next to the hall or room ten. If you need assistance finding a toilet, please ask our staff.
🛠️ Parents are not allowed to use the student toilets.
Departures -
🛠️ The event will conclude at 3:00pm.
🛠️ At 3:00pm students will return to collect their bags from outside their classrooms.
🛠️ Gate 3 and Gate 5 will be opened at the conclusion of the event.
🛠️ Please keep in mind that we have intentionally planned this event to finish at 3:00pm, to avoid long wait times to sign students out. It would be greatly appreciated if parents could wait until 3:00pm and exit through the gates once they are opened.
We are looking forward to celebrating all the magnificent men in our community.
