NEW GAMES ALERT!

Get ready for even more fun at this year’s Spring Fest with brand-new games for the whole family! Try your luck scooping at Lucky Ducks, test your aim at the Football Shootout, or giggle your way through the Laughing Clowns. For something a little cheeky, don’t miss the hilarious Poo Toss!

Of course, we’ll also have our classic favourites like Ring Toss and Lob-a-choc, plus a range of exciting wooden games for all ages.

FATHER’S DAY STALL – Seeking Volunteers

We’re excited to announce our Father’s Day Stall will be held on Thursday 28th and Friday 29th August in Robbie’s Room! There will be lots of fun and thoughtful gifts for the kids to choose from to celebrate the amazing dads and father figures in their lives.

.

We’re also seeking volunteers to help with the stall on both days, as well as for set-up on Wednesday 27th August. Kids absolutely love seeing their parents involved – and it’s such a fun and rewarding way to help out our little shoppers! The P&C will supply a light lunch for all volunteers at 11am.

.

If you can spare some time, please sign up here: volunteersignup.org/AFT8P

Reminders for shopping day at the Fathers Day Stall:

• Bring cash in a labelled zip lock bag
• Don’t forget a bag from home for your child to carry their special purchases

Let’s make this a memorable celebration for all the wonderful dads in our community!

SAVE THE DATES – Exciting Events Ahead!

Mark your calendars – we’ve got two fantastic community events coming up that you won’t want to miss:

Inflatable Obstacle Course Fundraiser - Tuesday 28th October
Get ready for an afternoon of laughter, challenges, and bouncing fun! This year the kids will enjoy a Water and Bubble themed event (not cornflour)!

Outdoor Cinema & End-of-Year Party - Friday 21st November
Bring your picnic rugs and settle in under the stars for a magical night of movies, food, and celebrations to wrap up the school year.

So much fun is ahead for our Robertson community – we can’t wait to share more details closer to time!

Tuckshop Helpers Needed!

Our Tuckshop simply can't run without the help of amazing volunteers – and we’re always looking for more! Come and lend a hand to help feed our hungry kids and keep this much-loved service going strong.

Parents, grandparents, aunties, uncles – everyone’s welcome! It’s a great way to meet new people, or perhaps grab some friends for a fun morning? Your kids will LOVE seeing you ‘working’ at school. Plus, each volunteer (and their child) receives a free ice block or hot chocolate as a thank you.
