22.01.2022 Every child in every school deserves fair funding. It is vitally important that we reverse the Morrison Liberal Government cuts to funding for students with disability so that every student gets the fully funded support they need. www.FairFundingNow.org.au

22.01.2022 Tomorrow morning, BIG W start giving away books! That's right! Just head to the greeter at the door and ask for your free book. There's a new book every week. 1 per child! We think this is kinda awesome! https://www.bigw.com.au/free-books-for-kids

22.01.2022 Please note as we have had no responses with assistance for postcard campaign this morning at school drop off, we have to cancel. Happy to reschedule for tomorrow morning but please confirm on this page if you can spare 30 minutes tomorrow. Sorry for any inconvenience.

17.01.2022 Did you know that there is a difference between biodegradable and compostable? Compostable items are made entirely of plant materials and will break down natura...lly. If they are eaten by marine life, or other animals, they are harmless. Biodegradable items have limitations in how they can break down and many break into smaller pieces of plastic, still contributing to plastic pollution. More food for thought! See more

09.01.2022 Hi CPS parents....we need your help. The west protest group have put together a postcard campaign. The idea is to get members of the community to put their questions on a card as to why they oppose to governments decision to retract shared school zones to western suburbs and we will post them to govt. By doing this puts a lot of pressure for govt to respond to all postcards received. I will be at front of school this Thursday handing out postcards. However I can't do this alone. Please let me know if you can spare 45 mins on thursday morning at school drop off 8.15am to 9.00am or afternoon 3.00pm to 3.30pm. Kind regards Kathy Laube Heres a pic of our postcard collection bag and cards.
