RPFA

From the President

I wanted to bring your attention to something that is very important for our community – the Annual General Meeting for the RPFA on 4 November at 6.30pm. We would love you to come along to see what we have done this year, what we are planning for next year (which is just around the corner) and have a look at the opportunities to get involved. The meeting is open to every parent in the school and anyone is welcome to join the committee. There are a number of positions open from members to officer bearers. We will be also be talking about the opportunities to get involved in the Spring Fair next year. Small and large roles are available, so if you have a small amount of time or would like to get involved in something to make your brain really work please put your hand up. Our community is strong and we would love you to get involved in whatever way you can to make it even stronger!

This is a great opportunity to spend an afternoon with your friends with the event open to the wider community and attended by both mums and dads. There is a shuttle bus service organised to bring you back to the Buena Vista (Mosman Junction). Main formalities finish straight after 3.00pm so you can leave earlier if you need to collect your children.
