In this busy world, we sometimes forget to

say what's in our hearts. But this Sunday seems the perfect time to let

our fathers and grand-fathers know how much

they mean to us.

To all our Dads, we wish you a happy

Fathers Day.

GRANDPARENTS DAY 2016

On Wednesday 24th August our MPC was overflowing with grandparents, parents, extended family, staff and students as we celebrated Grandparents Day. Our students entertained us with music, song and drama, whilst our special guests, “Endless Praise” had the audience captivated with their rendition of Waltzing Matilda and our national anthem. Many thanks to the Mums who donated cakes, biscuits and slices for morning tea and to those who worked tirelessly in the kitchen preparing lunch. A huge thankyou to Thurgoona Bakery for donating the bread rolls for the event. We were able to raise $1280, which will go towards the purchase of new library books – Mrs Jacob
