P&C NEWS
Next P&C meeting - Tuesday 19 August, 7pm
All welcome! The meeting will be held in The Hive (library) and also online via Teams, with a link to be sent out closer to the date.
P&C meetings are a great opportunity to keep up to date with happenings and be part of conversation that shapes fundraising and initiatives for our children.
As an association, we must hold meetings as part of the constitution and whilst they are quite formal…we provide beer, wine & snacks! We would love to see some more MSS community faces in attendance!
