Monster Garage Sale 2016
Last year’s garage sale was a great success, not only in terms of raising funds, but also in terms of bringing our community together in the new year and showcasing our wonderful school.We are very keen to repeat this in the New Year and so ask you to mark your calendar now for Saturday 13th February 2016 and put aside any of those unwanted goods as you have a clean-up over the summer break.The success of last year’s event relied on every family getting behind the garage sale and contributing in some way. Our small community really depends on this to happen.We have a number of stalls that we will need assistance with (below) but we are really open to new ideas so feel free to get on board, make your ideas happen and run your stall on the day.More info to follow but if you are happy to help on any of the following or have a new idea of your own then please respond to the Office.Confirmed stalls:Garage SaleBooksToysBakingBoutique ClothingSausage SizzleBouncy CastleSand-pit DigGirl themed stall – Face painting, nails, hair etcBoy themed stall – Nerf, Pinball, etcThankyou!

We had a great visit at Opoho Play Centre today (Friday) where the children gave another stunning performance.
