P&C NEWS
Hi everyone! This Saturday 16th March, the local Government elections are being held. Our school hall is a polling place and we will be running a sausage sizzle as a fundraiser. Be sure to stop by and see us for a snag in bread and a cold drink! We would love some extra hands to help out if you would have an hour free on the day? If so, please reach out on our contact information below. We are also very excited that the QCWA Calliope branch will be joining us with a treats and jams stall! See you at the polls!
Have you heard about our Easter raffle? There are multiple Easter egg hampers to be won and it will be drawn at the end of term Easter hat parade on Friday March 22nd. Your continued support towards our fundraising efforts is very much appreciated and helps us continue to contribute to costs that we commit to each year. For example the transport costs for camps and excursions. We would be so grateful if each family could donate one (or more if you fancy) Easter egg again this year. Please place your donation in our Easter egg raffle box located in the school office by end of day Wednesday March 20th. Thanks in advance for your generosity! Raffle tickets are now available to be purchased on QKR, available before school from Yr 5&6 students and also at the office.
Our AGM will be held next Tuesday March 19th at 5pm in the Admin building. Being a P&C member is a great way to keep informed with what is happening around our school and decisions being made for our school and students. Becoming a member doesn’t require you to make a commitment but means you’ll receive the minutes from our meetings in your inbox and you’re in control how involved you want to be. Membership forms for 2024 are available at the office and we strongly encourage you to consider joining us this year. You don’t need to be present at the AGM to have your membership and/or nomination forms accepted. So, to get involved, please collect a form from the office and pop it into the P&C lock box located in the office also.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out to the team on communication.calliopess@gmail.com for our Communication Officer or pandc@calliopess.eq.edu.au for our Executive team.
Warm regards,
Heidi, Geoff, Angela and Lisa.
