Well done to the group of grade 5/6 girls for baking some very yummy treats that were sold last Friday. Thank you to all the students and families who supported the bake sale to help raise funds to go towards a shade sail.

Thank you to the families who came along to the Welcome BBQ a special thank you to Christina & Marg Po2er for cooking and Cheryl for purchasing food items also to Mrs MoAon and her grade for seFing up and cleaning up the couJyard.

Last Saturday Darcy Greenwood and her family volunteered their time to help in the Bairnsdale Speedway canteen and raised $300 to go towards a Basketball court shelter here at school. The Bairnsdale Speedway welcome groups to volunteer in the canteen and in return these groups receive $300 towards their chosen fundraising. The school has been offered to help at their next race meeting on 25th March. All we need to do is provide 6 adult helpers to help on the night starting at 3:30pm and finish around 9:30pm. Entry is free to those volunteering along with their meal for the night. Volunteers help with making burgers, tea/coffee, hot dogs and work alongside regular volunteers. If you would like to help on the night please contact Carly Greenwood 0407 794 557.

There will be no Principles report this week due to meetings and appointments.
