NEXT MEETING

Tue 16th September, 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! 

UPCOMING EVENTS

Fair on the Green - October 18

We're just under 2 months away from our biggest event of the year - stay tuned for updates and make sure your calendar is marked! The volunteer register will be sent around in Week 9 as will our first newsletter. In the meantime, make sure you are following us on Instagram @mssfaironthegreen and heading to our website www.faironthegreen.com.au, and also sharing our Facebook event!

We do also still have a few sponsorship opportunities remaining - please reach out if you're interested or know someone who might be! Sponsors are very important to the success of our day :-)

Some news from 2 of our sponsors:

• salud! - one of our new locals, this cafe & bar on Haig Rd would like to offer a standing "Amigos of Salud" discount to MSS families! Vince and the team welcome you to come in and you’ll get 10% off the total bill (including catering) - just say you’re from MSS when you head in. 
• Teacup Coach - upcoming holiday workshops are happening, head to teacupcoach.com to find out more!

PREVIOUS EVENTS

Trivia - Aug 2

On Saturday night 2nd August, we held our parents trivia evening at Red Hill Bowls Club, with 12 teams competing (and some cracking team names!). Thank you to all of you who bought tickets and attended - we had 92 people, with many laughs, lots of pizza, plenty of drinks and a fun dance floor! Thank you also to those who bought raffle tickets, including those who couldn't come to trivia.

Huge congrats to The Quizzicals who came out on top - two points clear of their nearest competitors. These guys won the trophy, a hamper from TB's Beer & Wine at Rosalie, a Grill'd gift voucher each & a Hoppy's Superwash carwash each!

Through ticket sales & our raffle, we have made $7k which is an amazing result.

A few big shout-outs for making the night happen - led by P&C Exec Leah Beadman, with Phoebe Sale & Emily Goldsmith assisting by securing some fabulous raffle prizes, and P&C Exec Sarah Bassett for behind-the-scenes financial support & running the pizza & snack organisation on the night!

Monty's Colour & Slime Fun Run - August 22

Held this week after being postponed from March, the lead up is always full of friendly competition and the day a fabulous one. All official results will be shared in the Week 10 newsletter and in school emails - as this newsletter submission has been written prior to the event taking place, but published afterwards!

A huge thank you to April Thomas-Senescall and Teagan Williams for leading the charge here, with support from P&C Exec Leah Beadman & Thomas Rice. Thank you also to the volunteers who help on the day with set up & the stations!

CONTAINERS FOR CHANGE ♻️ 

A reminder that you can donate your containers from home (as can friends & family!) at any time, using our member number!
