20.01.2022 We've turned the corner into the new year and what a great year 2021 will be! As you go about planning, setting your goals and noting those important events for 2021, please lock in this date: Saturday 20 February. It will be a great (long awaited!) evening enjoying popcorn under the stars as we welcome new and returning families to Wooloowin. Now is also a great time to think about the WSS community and how you might be able to contribute or participate to help make 2021 re...ally something special for our kids. The P&C plays such an important role, providing so much to our school and it is run by volunteers! Events like this Movie Night only happen thanks to the work of those volunteers and we will soon be seeking more of them to assist in the preparation and running of the evening. If you would like to know more information about what our amazing P&C does around the school, if you have some time you can give this year and/or would like to get involved in anyway, please get in touch. We would really love to hear from you! Happy New Year! WSS Events & Fundraising Committee [email protected]
