School Community Council News
Hello St Matthew's Primary School Parents & Carers,
On Saturday, we greeted huge numbers of people from the community with our Election BBQ, cake stall and raffle fundraiser. A massive thank you to Michael Shelton, who led this event, supported by the School Community Council. I also wanted to say a big thank you to all the families who assisted with the day, either by volunteering on the day, providing baked goods for the cake stall or donating to the raffle. Thank you to Sarah Lowe and the front office staff for supporting so much of the admin and access. We could not have pulled this off without every one of you, so thank you. We expect we will have raised a good amount of funding for the school on Saturday, and I will provide you with an update on the amount of money we raised in the next couple of weeks.
