ANZAC Ceremony
/in School NewsThis Friday, 7th April, the Years Three to Six will attend an ANZAC Ceremony from 11:05am. This very special event will be held in the courtyard, in front of the undercover area and all members of the Aubin Grove school community are welcome to attend.
As this is a formal event in the school calendar, students in these year groups are required to wear their purple uniforms on this day, rather than the usual Friday faction shirts. Those students who attend external Scouts and Guides groups are also welcome to wear their club uniforms for the ceremony.
Kind regards

P&C NEWS
STEMS (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
Each year the fundraising team receives vouchers from Parent Direct and Chalk. These are companies the school uses for fundraising. When parents purchase toys from their catalogues the school receives a percentage of that purchase in the form of vouchers. The P&C Executive Committee has voted to donate the vouchers from 2016 to the STEMS program. These vouchers will be used to purchase robotics and coding resources that every child in the school will eventually have access to.
Hand Sanitiser
The P&C has recently purchased hand sanitiser for every classroom in the school.
