If you are interested in joining us, please email the PTA office at [email protected] with your details. Alternatively you can also approach the PTA administrators in person. Helper Appreciation Afternoon It seems there was a confusion with this event which was held last Thursday. In order to facilitate the inflow of people coming into school during school hours, parents were required to sign their helpers up on a form that had been provided in the newsletter of 23 May 2018. Signing up also helps us when it comes to catering for and managing an event. Unfortunately, there were a lot of walk-ins and some could not be accommodated for security reasons. We always appreciate your feedback. Please do email us if you have any concerns, questions or suggestions. Thank you.
