Dear Parents and Caregivers,
We need your help, please!
Our highly anticipated Country Show Day is this Saturday, 18 October, and we’re still short on volunteers for several key stalls.
These stalls are run by our wider school community, including parents, guardians, grandparents, and other family members. They also provide a great opportunity for teenagers seeking community service experience to enhance their CVs.
Unfortunately, if we can’t fill the remaining time slots, we’ll have to close them. That means lost opportunities to raise much needed funds for our children.
We’re only asking for one hour of your time and every bit of help makes a big difference!
Here are the stalls and the time slots that still need support:
**Quick Fire Raffle**

Your support is essential to making this event a success. Volunteering just one hour of your time will make a huge impact and it’s a fun way to be involved in the school community.
