Dear Parents and Community Members,

Thank you to all parents and community members who joined us for Aboriginal Education Day. It was a great day to

celebrate our indigenous culture.

Curlewis Hotel Raffles

The Curlewis Hotel Friday Night Raffles continue to support local groups and organisations in our village, and during

August the proceeds are going to support our P & C. If you can spare a few hours one Friday evening to sell tickets,

please let Casey West know on 0488 941 249.

Drought Relief Dog Food Drive

Students are asked to bring in a can of dog food to donate to our local farmers. We are also doing a coin map where

we will have a big map of the region outlined and all the students can fill it in with coins. So break open the money

boxes and send it in for a great cause! All proceeds will go to our local farmers.

Fantastic Friday

There is no Fantastic Friday this week as the whole school will be in Gunnedah at the Small Schools Athletics Carnival.

The next Fantastic Friday is 24th August and will be home-made sausage rolls with a choice of a warm Milo or cool

cordial all for $5. As always, we welcome parents to come and assist us with the cooking and serving on Fridays and if

you would like to help, please call Casey on 0488 941 249.

Thank you for your ongoing support for our wonderful students.

Casey West

P&C President
