Cromer Campus P&C

Our next P&C Meeting is on Monday 5th December 2022 in the school library at 7:00pm for drinks and nibbles followed by the meeting at 7:30pm. The P&C holds meetings twice per school term and are open to attendance by all parents and other community members. They provide an opportunity to learn more about the activities of the P&C, and to also provide input to areas of focus. We would love to have input from our Parent Community, so hoping you are free to join us.

Membership forms to join the P&C will be made available at the meeting, and we require a $1.00 payment to become a registered member. This provides you with voting rights. You DO NOT need to become a member to join the P&C meetings. You are free to come along, listen, input and hang out with us.

Parents AND children are invited to help out with the working bee on Sunday 13th November 8am-12pm.
Most of the work will centre around clearing out some of the garden beds and spreading some new mulch. There are a few trees and bushes that could do with a bit of a clean-up as well and a tidy up of the International Gardens area.

What to bring.
Wheelbarrow/buckets
Rakes….lots and lots of rakes 😉
Shovels
Hedge trimmer
Secateurs/pruning cutters
Garden/work gloves
Insect spray
Sunscreen
Water bottle
Positive can-do attitude 🙂

There will be a sausage sizzle provided for all the amazing helpers. Work up an appetite and reward yourself with a sausage sanga and a cold drink.
So, get the word out and let’s gather as many people as possible to help improve our school. Even if you can only spare 30 minutes, your school community will greatly appreciate it. Please register your interest and rough times at the following link.

While the COVID pandemic has curtailed this year’s P&C fundraising activities, it hasn’t stop them from providing new additional fantastic outdoor furniture that has been enthusiastically received by both students and staff.

Anyone who has recently driven past the school could not have failed to notice the beautiful new covered and non covered seating. Apart from its striking appearance, the additional seating is extremely practical and durable and will be enjoyed by the school community for years to come..

QUADFEST – 20 May’21: What a fantastic festival of impressive art, performances and music. A massive thanks to all the amazing contributions to the QuadFest Bake Sale. The tables were overflowing with super delicious treats and sweets, so a huge thanks to all – and the testimony to the success was that not a single crumb was left over. It looked amazingly delicious. The sausage sizzle was a great success too – some 360 sausages and onions later… A special thanks to the parent volunteers who helped out on the day – so greatly appreciated!
