Sunnies for CCS Day - Thursday 2 September

Sunglasses will be available to purchase on QKR and at the school gates as students enter on Thursday. Don’t forget your cash for our donation tin on the day. Remember that this is for charity.

This year, our school is choosing to fundraise for Childhood Cancer Support (CCS). One of our Calliope families is currently facing the devastating news of their daughter having Cancer. Charities like CCS make a huge difference to families travelling through such heartbreaking times and provides accommodation and ongoing supports.

For a bit of fun, Calliope State School will be having a Sunnies for CCS Day where students are asked to purchase sunglasses and where them at school on Thursday 2 September. Keep an eye on QKR for sales to begin this week. We know that the family and the charity will appreciate this gesture so much and we thank you for participating, plus it’s fun and the kids will love it!

Let’s show ‘em a sea of sunnies to bring a smile to their faces!!!
