International Day Supported by PTA

PTA was proud to be able to support the International Day by providing a story teller, Jody Jackson-Bercerra who wove her magic using Fagogo, a traditional Pacific Island storytelling technique that involves song, actions and audience participation.  PTA also assisted with providing food for the international themed lunch on the Thursday where butter chicken and nachos were provided and went down a treat with the students.

PTA Support of Fiji Service Trip

PTA was delighted to contribute $2000 to support the Fiji Service Trip in July which was another very successful service activity for students, staff and parents involved.  All of the tasks planned were completed including the building of a school room, a toilet block renovation, installation of concrete pathways, installation of windows in the neighbouring village across the river and a school mural.

PTA Friends and PTA Committee need you!

Our PTA is a group of passionate parents and teachers who have the goal of assisting the school to build a joyful community spirit within our community, to bring different groups in the community together and to fundraise for additional resources for our students and teachers.  We get involved in and enable many fundraising projects and we donate our time and funds to the school to enhance what the school offers.  The committee welcomes new members and the next meeting is on the 19th September at 5.30pm in the staffroom.  We also welcome PTA Friends who may not be able to make the meetings but who are keen to help us out with events and activities.  You can contact us on ouraquinas@gmail.com.

PTA Cookbook

The PTA are working on a high-quality hardback cookbook which showcases favourite recipes from families in our community and from other well-known contributors.  We are launching it next year and we need you to send us all those family great recipes you have to help us to make this a must have cookbook. We are also looking for businesses who wish to advertise their products and services to sponsor the book.  Please contact ouraquinas@gmail.com.
