PTG NEWS

Alana Curry —

The Parent Teacher Group (PTG) is a group of parents and teachers that work to create fun events for the kids and fundraise for the school. We always welcome new members - we’d love to see some new faces at our meetings. If you can’t commit to meetings but would like to help out at events, please let us know. We especially need parents that can help out during the day occasionally.


  • AGM Results: We would like to congratulate our Officers on re-election. A huge thanks to them for volunteering their time once again.

    • Katherine Don, Chairperson

    • Renee McKellar, Vice Chair

    • Jennie Cox, Secretary

    • Natasha Lipsey, Treasurer

Our report on PTG actions over the last year is attached. 

Take a look and see the amazing job they have done this year!!! We are always so appreciative of the work and contributions the PTG make to Silverdale Normal School.

  • School Disco: This Friday, 6th November, 5-7pm. Come along for a fun night with music, dancing, food, face painting etc. Weather permitting, we will have model train rides. Due to the on-going effect of the pandemic, we have reduced our entry fee this year: Gold coin donation per school age child. Parents/pre-schoolers free entry.

    • Parent help wanted: Each class will ‘own’ a stall; please sign up with your child’s class to help out for a short time on the night.

    • International Food Wanted: If you would like to contribute some international food for us to sell at the disco, eg dumplings, curry, samosas, fried rice, sweets etc please get in touch with Vicky wai_k1982@yahoo.co.nz

  • Friday Iceblocks: We will be selling iceblocks ($1.00) and Juicies ($1.50) every Friday after school, under the big tree by the office.

  • NZ Nature Serum: We have a new fundraiser this term. Each purchase of a pot of NZ Nature serum: Nourishing Ointment gives the school $7. More information coming soon! 

  • Next Meeting: Thursday 12 November. 7pm in the school staffroom. All welcome.
