Blog is back up!

Hi everyone,

The blog is back up again and you can email me (jaq.s@internode.on.net) or darlo.parents@hotmail.com if you would like any notices put up.

Some recent events:

Trivia Fundraiser
Congratulations and thank you to everyone who organised and participated in the Trivia Fundraising night in August.

The S&C raised over $4,400, which is fantastic, and we all had a great night as well.

October Fete
We are working on holding a fete in October, and we are looking for volunteers. If you can help in any capacity please email darlo.parents@hotmail.com.

New S&C Office Bearers
The S&C Committee AGM was held on 14 September and some positions changed hands. Although I am new I am sure the rest of the committee would want me to pass on their thanks to the outgoing President Nick Vanos for all his hard work over the last few years and I am sure he will still be around to help organise events.

I am still checking contact details to post but the current positions are:
President: Pete Wilson
Treasurer: Jen Burn
Secretaries: Anna Butler, Liz Potter and Suzy Pickles

New School Website
The website has had a major revamp and looks amazing. Check it out at www.darlington-p.schools.nsw.edu.au

Dates and Reminders

• School starts back Monday 10th October
• Next S&C Meeting is Wednesday 12th October
• Darlington Aftercare AGM is on Tuesday 11th October at Aftercare at 6:15
• Don't forget the form and $40 to participate in the 'Sport Schools in Australia' program this term.

Enjoy the rest of the holidays!

Welcome back

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to Darlington and another exciting school year. I hope you all had a good break, with plenty of rest and sunshine.

Hopefully you are all ready to get back into the rhythm of supporting your kids and working with the S&C to fund the many projects that the school require to assist in the development of the school. I look forward to working with as many parents as possible to make it a successful year for both the S&C and school.

With that in mind our first S&C meeting will be held on Wednesday 9th February @ 6pm in the teachers staff room. look forward to seeing you there. If you have any agenda item please forward them to the Darlo email ID.

Note that S&C meeting will now be held on the 2nd Wednesday of each month ( a schedule will be put up on the notice board ).

Also, on Monday morning at 8:45am the S&C will be holding a Tea and Tissues's for the new kindergarden parents in the teachers staff room. If parents of 'old' student would like to attend and provide their 'moral' support that would be much appreciated. There will be light refreshments provided ( if you can bring a plate that would be great ).
