FAREWELL NAKITA
We sadly said goodbye to Nakita from our teaching staff on Wednesday, 21 March.
We held a PJ day to celebrate her last day with us, which the children loved.
Nakita leaves us for a new career as a travel agent at the Flight Centre.
We will all miss Nakita but wish her well in her new career.

TRIKEATHON
Thank you to all those that came along and supported our Trikeathon/Mini-fair. It was a fantastic day with many families enjoying the atmosphere.
The mini-fair was a huge success, raising $877.00 from this alone!
We will advise Trikeathon fundraiser total next newsletter once all the sponsorship is returned.
A fantastic effort by everyone who raised money and attended, as well as those who assisted with donated items, including all the yummy cakes for the popular cake walk and the face painting, which was a great success with the children. Also, we can’t forget our Dunking Queens (Amy Pateman, Leesa Reeves and Kerri Jopp), and King (Michael Pateman)- thank you!
