It was great to meet many of the new families at the Welcome Event! It was great despite the last minute cancellation due to the weather and everyone seemed to be enjoying the evening! So thank you all for coming!
Yesterday we had our first PTA meeting of the year, where we welcomed a few new faces! Thank you all for showing up, it is great to have new people contributing! Here are the minutes for anyone who would like to see what we talked about. Here are a few dates for your calendar:

And this is what we will be fundraising for this term:

Park gym – We are looking to add children’s outdoor exercise machines to the playground
Revamp the library – We are looking to re-organise the library, paint and get new shelves to make a better use of the space and hide the IT equipment.
Buddy bench – We are looking to replace the buddy bench as it is in poor condition
Butterfly kit – We would like to offer the children the opportunity to see the transformation of caterpillars into butterflies and release them afterwards.
