Donations so far have been very generous and we are really appreciative!&nbsp;We are raising money for the P&amp;F to purchase new STEM resources for the Primary students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t forget, there are prizes for the three highest donors and also thank you gifts for any donation over $50.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/colourblast.com.au\/findmyschoolorclub\/state\/\">Please register your child and make a donation<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As a token of appreciation any child who has donated between $50 to $150 will receive a gift equivalent to their donation and apportioned at their age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a mufti day and ideally, your child should wear a white or light clothing. As the colour fun run is quite messy we would highly recommend that you have a towel in the car or a change of clothes. The children will get some sunglasses to wear on the day, but swim goggles are not a bad idea especially for the little kids! It is going to be loud, fun and messy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parents are welcome to attend from 1:45pm onwards. If you are coming along please <strong>DO NOT <\/strong>park in the Kiss &amp; Ride zone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">P&amp;F Annual General Meeting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A reminder that the AGM will be held at 6:30pm on Wednesday 12 November 2025.&nbsp;There are a number of positions that are up for election.
