The latest FOSP news.......Meeting dates, uniform info, lost property, fundraising opportunities........

NEXT MEETING: Our next meeting is on Tuesday 8th September at 7pm in the staff room. Everyone is welcome to join us as we plan our events and fundraising for the rest of the year.

UPCOMING MEETING DATES: Please add these dates to your diary for our next meetings... Tuesday 8th September, Tuesday 20th October, Tuesday 24th November and a date TBA for Christmas drinks in December.

GALA 2021- SAVE THE DATE: We have set the date for next years Gala so please mark Saturday 15th May in your diaries now! Planning has begun so keep an eye out for further information to follow.

PARENT LIAISONS: Each year we ask for one or two parents from each class to take on the role of Parent Liaison. Please get in touch with your child's class teacher if you are able to take on this important role in our school. Sharing the role with another parent may be an option you wish to consider. Please see the attached poster for further information.

UNIFORM: Most of our uniform stock (polo tops, skirts, skorts and shorts) are now being sold through the NZ Uniforms shop at Nayland College. They are open Monday and Wednesday 8 - 9.30am, Tuesday and Thursday 2.30 - 4.30pm and Saturday 10am - 1pm. Please check the Nayland College website for a map of how to find the shop. Polar fleeces and PE tops are able to be purchased by contacting Maree Jenkinson - 021 261 4671

LOST PROPERTY: There is still a large number of unclaimed polar fleeces and a huge box of shoes/other clothing items in the lost property. Please come and have a look (in the senior roost) to see if any belongs to your child. Some are not named and some have unrecognisable names or initials. Any non-uniform items unclaimed by the end of this term will be donated to St Vincent de Paul.

Now would be a great time to purchase some clothing labels! See details below.

STUCK ON YOU - clothing labels and other items: Are your children always losing their clothes, hats and shoes? Well we have the answer. Personalised name labels save time and money.

Spend less time recovering lost property and more time getting on with the fun things in life. These are great quality name labels that can be used on all clothing and even school hats and shoes.

It's easy.....you place your order online, https://www.stuckonyou.nz/affiliate/fundraiser/FOSPS

Enter our fundraising code (FOSPS) at the checkout and the items will be shipped straight to you. We receive 20% of every full priced order.

This will be an ongoing fundraiser so you can purchase items at any time, especially handy for those new uniform items this year.

Please share this offer with friends and family who might like to support our fundraising efforts. All funds raised will be used to support learning resources and opportunities for all our students.
