Thank You From the SPA Chair

Northbridge Canteen | Saturday 10 August

A huge thank you to all the volunteers who helped on Saturday at the Northbridge Canteen – what a day. Record funds were raised, and it couldn’t have been done without you. 

To our parent volunteers who showed up early to help set up the Canteen, lug boxes and crates of bread, pastries, and milk, slice 1,000 bread rolls and prepare the bread for sausage sandwiches, to those setting up and working on the BBQ, cooking eggs, sausages, bacon, steaks and onion, and to our counter helpers who all worked together to keep hungry boys and their families satisfied – thank you!

A special thank you to Ms Vicky Charley, our new Canteen Coordinator, who, despite returning from overseas on Friday, still managed to run the Canteen from 7am to closing. A big thank you to Ms Gaby Hunter, our former Canteen Coordinator, who stepped in to prepare the Canteen while Vicky was away. 

The Shore spirit of volunteerism was palpable on Saturday, especially from a number of Boarding parents who drove many hours to watch their boys play and still served in the Canteen.    

It’s not too late to join the volunteering crew – American Tea is just around the corner (Friday 13 September), and we need as many parent volunteers as possible.  So, if you want to be part of the action, sign up here.

A friendly reminder that we all need a WWCC number from Service NSW – Apply for a Working with Children Check | Service NSW. 

Sustain the Flame!
