Dear Parents and Carers,

The children thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to shop and then re-shop for their special Mum or person in their life. A huge thankyou to the following parents for giving of their time to assist our savvy shoppers; Orlaith Grace, Katie Reid, Linda Ragonesi Jessop, Martha Rand and Narelle Hollway. Some of our mums had every child in the family buy chocolate so we trust you will enjoy your chocolate feast – assuming it made its way home. We hope you enjoy a special day on Sunday.
