Hello Team,

I would like to thank all of the students that assisted with the Music Night event. This includes those that donated food, or drink, or their time to assist serve on the night. A lot of fun was had by all and we raised approximately $300 +. Yet to be confirmed. So thank you!

I would also like to thank Aidan Johnstone for leading the troops and assisting in organising this worthy fundraising event.

A big shout out to the Music Department for always offering us the opportunity to raise funds.

Have a great weekend.

Hi all,

Next Wednesday we have the senior music concert as a fundraising opportunity. The concert will start at 6:45pm and we will be able to sell some sweet/savory baked goods and drinks (water and soft drink) during the interval.

The fundraising will go towards the group and be used for donations to Bali Life and AK.

• Each student will need to provide an item (you may leave this at school on the day)
• We will need at least 4 volunteers for the evening and I will be there to assist.

Please email myself (Mr Johnstone) should you be available next Wednesday to help out.

Kind regards,

Mr Johnstone
