P&C NEWS

We would like to wish all the dad’s out there a Happy Father’s Day for last Sunday. And a massive thank you to all our volunteers who gave up their own time to help run our Father’s Day stall on Thursday of last week. Although Term Three is almost at an end, that doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening!

Calliope Rodeo Drinks Stall

This year our P & C will be holding a drinks stall at the Calliope Rodeo on Friday 23 September and Saturday 24 September 2022. So if you think you will have some time to be able to come down and help us out please let us know. A link will be put up on the Calliope State School P & C Facebook page at the end of this week where you can register your interest for a time slot.

Tuckshop News

Our fabulous tuckshop convener, Miss Lisa, is working hard as normal filling hungry bellies. There are also lucky dips along with all the amazing tastebud delights on our weekly menu, be sure to get onto QKR and get your orders in.

Miss Lisa can always use an extra set of hands or two each tuckshop day to make sure your kids get their food as quickly as possible at break times. If you’d like to lend a hand, please contact Miss Lisa via our Facebook page or pandc@calliopess.eq.edu.au

Parents are reminded that ice creams and ice blocks need to be collected from tuckshop by the students with their paper bag.

Taste Buds Fundraiser

Taste buds is a variety of yummy spice blends, savoury salts & rubs and versatile mixes and the best part is you can order online, and they are delivered straight to your door. Just remember to use the code Calliope at checkout to fundraise for your kids. Feel free to share the link with friends and family. More information on the Calliope State School P & C facebook page or Visit https://tastebudsfundraising.com.au/?ref=Calliope

Uniform Shop

Uniform shop is via appointment only, if you need to make an appointment, please email the uniform shop email address below. Otherwise, orders can be done on QKR. *Please note orders can take up to 3 business days to fill after day of order.* These items are then taken to the office and the students are contacted to collect. If you haven’t received your uniform order please check, if it has been 3 days, that its not in your child’s school bag (we all have that one child :p ) and that its not in the classroom. Please remember if you have any concerns the admin ladies are probably unlikely to be able to solve them, contact us via our Facebook page or email uniformshop.calliopess@gmail.com  

Volunteer Reminder

I would like to take this moment to remind everyone that we are volunteers, we are parents, we are employed by other organisations or companies and that unfortunately, although it would be amazing, we do not have endless hours in the day. Please when contacting us be patient, be polite and be kind. We know it may be frustrating not getting a response straight away however please understand you are not being ignored, we just may be busy and will get to it as soon as possible. If you would like to help lighten the load and volunteer, please reach out we would love to have you on board.

Please don’t hesitate to stop us and say hi and ask questions.

Your P&C Team,

Tenielle, Kate, Bec, Geoff & Cass.
