P&F Wine Raffle reminder
Dear Families
Many, many thanks to all those families who donated a bottle of wine by the due date and who have also returned sold raffle tickets – really fabulous and really appreciated.
If you are doing it tough financially and just can’t see your way to donating a bottle of wine, please let it go. If you would please on-sell the tickets however, this would be really great, as every dollar helps us get closer to our goals and to supporting your child’s experience here at St Emilie’s.
If you have been too busy to buy a bottle of wine, please don’t stress – we are happy to take these donations early in Term 4.
By on-selling tickets the money is coming from pockets other than our own so please seek out replies, friends and workmates – great prizes leading up to the Chrissy holiday season!
Thanks again!

Social Justice has been the concept that has been investigated throughout the school this term.
