EASTER HARMONY DAY

What a fantastic afternoon we had yesterday at our Easter Harmony Day. Thank you to all of our families for your genenous donations and taking the time to enjoy the festivities. A massive thank you to the EPS staff and School Council members that contributed to organising the day and to the parents/carers that helped out at stalls and with setup/pack up. It was an excellent community event and it was lovely to see everyone enjoying the lovely weather and catching up with each other in a more social atmosphere. A secondary part of the event was the opportunity to raise funds for our school. The event raised a $474 donatation for Down Sydnrome Victoria from our free dress day and our afternoon stalls raised $4406.05. This money will go towards works to improve our outside school environment. Stayed tuned to news from Buildings & Grounds. Have a lovely weekend!
