A donation to a worthy cause...

Today, Friday June 19th, we found out what JSC is really all about. 

Three Junior School Councillors proudly presented cheques* to two families within our school community who have gratefully received the wonderful services provided by the doctors, nurses, surgeons and specialists from the Royal Children's Hospital. 

Thanks for your support, everybody! A fun day, for a fabulous cause, with an awesome result!





* The cheques were just pretend - the real donation of $844 was made online. :)

Junior Councillors Meet Senior Councillors

School Council has never been so youthful as the evening when two Junior School Councillors popped in. The brother and sister duo informed the School Council of the success of PJ Day and also requested their approval for our two remaining fundraisers - a disco in August and Crazy Hair Day in October. They spoke clearly, confidently and made us (and their watching Mum) very proud!

PJ Day

Our first fundraiser for the year was PJ Day on Thursday, June 4th. Year after year, our Junior School Councillors elect to conduct this day. And why not? It's the cosiest day of the year! This year, again, there were jim-jams, PJs and onesies everywhere you looked. Children gave a gold coin donation and Ann offered a special deal for the day - iced or jam donut, and strawberry or chocolate Big M. And the wet weather gave us the perfect excuse for a lazy day inside. We raised $844 which we will be donating to the Royal Children's Hospital Foundation. Thanks for your support, everyone!
