Pink Shirt Day - Friday 15 May
8 May 2026

PINK SHIRT DAY

On Friday the 15th of May it is Pink Shirt Day!! We will be raising money for the Mental Health Foundation by dressing up in PINK and bringing a gold coin donation - which will be donated to the Mental Health Foundation.

There will be a tasty prize for the 'Pinkest Panther' and this will be awarded at assembly. We hope to see everyone dressed in some pink.

We will also have a sausage sizzle at lunchtime (order and pay to Sarah as normal). 

Kind regards

Fat Lamb Distribution Postponement
23 Apr 2026

Urgent Notice: Fat Lamb Distribution Postponement
Due to the wet and challenging season, the farmer who we purchase our lambs off has
been unable to shear and process his lambs. This is necessary for the competition to
provide all graziers with an even line of lambs. To provide the farmer time to shear and
sort stock without compromising his infrastructure, we unfortunately have to postpone
the weigh and distribution day by one week.
The new date will be Sunday 3 rd May. Ideally, we would like to keep all the
arrangements already made for the day in place. So that means sticking with the same
start time, distributions lists, and jobs already allocated for the day. However, if there
are issues arising from the new date, please be in touch with me as soon as possible.
We will need drivers to please contact their grazier lists to inform them of the date
change and discuss any necessary changes to plans.
I appreciate that this may require people to change plans at a busy time of the year and
I do acknowledge that it is opening weekend of duck shooting, so it’s not ideal, but I can
only ask for your support in helping this fundraiser that is critical for supporting our
school.
Thank you for your understanding, any questions or problems please be in touch.
