Year PPT OLC

  Dear Parents, On Friday the 4 th of August we will be celebrating the Feast of Our Lady Mary, by attending a liturgy in the hall and having our annual Mission Fete Fundraiser. The Preprimary classes will combine to set up a Sensory Trail.   On the day,  students will make a donation of a gold coin in order to join in on our ‘fun’ activities. We are asking all parents to donate items that will be used to create our sensory activities.   Please don’t purchase expensive groceries.   All items will probably be disposed of at the end of the session anyway. Each class will have a list on the information wall at the Preprimary entry.   Please write your name next to items that you would like to donate.   There is a list for each class. We would like all items to be at school by next Tuesday the 1 st of August.   Thank you for supporting our fundraising efforts.   All money collected on the day will go to very worthy causes. Kind regards, The Preprimary TEAM 😊
