All families are welcome to cook a dish to sell at the food festival to help celebrate all our different cultures. Look out for a Compass post for more information.
Lids 4 Kids
It is great to see our school community get behind this good cause and bring their lids and bread tags to the school for house points. We have had so many items come in. Thanks to our students – Felicity, Ameisha and Swastika who have the fun job of counting these!
UPDATES:
- To make it a bit fairer with all other house point initiative we have decided that for Term 3 – 10 lids will count for 1 point.
- For items more than 10 – can you please count the items and indicate the number of lids/tags on the bag to help with the counting.
What to collect: bread tags and lids – (milk/UHT bottle lids, water bottle lids, soft-drink bottle lids)
Where to drop off: The General Office – House-colour containers are located on the Reception Desk
Where do the lids go: These will be donated to a fantastic foundation called Lids4Kids, the plastic lids will be created into mobility aids and toys among many other things for young kids and the bread tags will be used to create wheelchairs. Head to Lids 4 Kids for more information: www.lids4kids.org.au/
How are points counted: For every lid or bread tag donated you will earn one house point for your house. The winning house will also be awarded and extra 20 points.
