We are looking for new members who would like to contribute to the care and
upkeep of our wonderful school, and would like to invite interested parents to

In the past, some of our achievements include erection of additional play

to the school, annual maintenance and major works planning, and of course the organisation of working
bees.
Please come on over and see our exciting new facility and meet the team, or give me a call on the number

Hope to hear from you!
