Last night we had our second last fete meeting. The fete committee has been gathering for months on a Tuesday evening organising what will be a wonderful celebration of community here at SCA to celebrate 30 years.

Call out for the Fete :

  • VOLUNTEERS STILL NEEDED for the food and other stalls - please pop your name down via the QR code or call our office on 6294 1860 to let us know what time - even an hour would be fabulous and lighten the load!
  • Books, Clothing and Toys still needed these can be dropped to the front office.

Fete reminders: 

  • Pre-sales are available online before school and outside the front office. The Gingerbread people will be sent out next week to families that have pre-purchased tickets.
  • There will be NO parking on Thursday or Friday in the SCA Carpark as the trucks will be rolling in to set up all the rides. 
  • Let OSHC know if you are not going to use their service on Friday.
  • Please remember to send along your baking or drop your goodies off in the afternoon when you arrive at the Fete. The cake stall is in the hall.
  • Please come along on Friday any time and help us set up.
