Our Buildings and Grounds subcommittee conducted a grounds audit last term, identifying a priority list of works to improve our school environment.
We have locked in two dates for Working Bees this year:
Term 3 – SUNDAY 25TH AUGUST 10 AM – 12 PM

If you have a couple of hours to spare on either or both of those dates your efforts are greatly welcomed and very much appreciated. A signup link is forthcoming.
