Canberra Excursion News

Parents,

Yesterday we finalised parent helpers for our Canberra excursion. There were many volunteers but after we counted staff, Father Robert and parents that needed to come for either medical or supervision needs, we only had 2 seats left on the bus. All volunteers were placed in a hat and drawn out in front of the children, one dad and one mum. We realise that this is a disappointment for some, however, we were limited by seats available in the bus.

It was wonderful to see so many parents wanting to come and if we had a bigger bus we could have taken more. The parents that will be attending are:

Mr DePaoli, Mr Apap, Mr Silva, Mr Scarsbrook, Mrs Muffet and Mrs Macedo.
