If you, or somebody that you know would be interested in lending a hand with any of the clubs (particularly any keen gardeners, artists, writers, coders or legoists) please reach out. Also we would welcome any equipment that can be donated to the clubs.

Colour Run:

Colour run fundraiser to be held on 1 November (term 4 week 3). Sponsorship booklets and parent information letters to be sent home with students this week.

A big thankyou to our student leaders who have put their hands up to organise the fundraiser.

We’ll be looking for some volunteers on the day, so if you’re interested in helping out reach out and let us know.

Secondhand School Uniform Shop

The Secondhand Uniform shop is open every Wednesday from 9am - 10am. Pop by the canteen and ask for Kat or Jason. Items are $1 - $5 and card or cash payments are accepted. 

Follow us on Facebook for regular updates. 

We happily accept donations of secondhand uniforms in good condition. We cannot accept clothing that is marked, discoloured, broken buttons/zips, or items that are not Ngunnawal colours. 

Please contact Kat directly if you have any questions - 0417 393 887

We will be holding a pop-up shop in week 10 (next week). All non logo items will be available for $1.

Similar to last term we will hold one stall in the morning from 8.30 to 10 and in the afternoon from 2.30 to 4. We are open to being flexible with these times- so please contact us if you would like us to have the stall open outside of these times (particularly the afternoon stall).

Lost Property

Has your child lost a uniform item or personal property at school? Please check the lost property to see if it is there. There are 2 lost property tubs located outside the library (these tubs are emptied and the property sorted every Wednesday). Sorted lost property is located on a rack just inside the entrance to the school gym.

It is a timely reminder for parents to label/name your child’s jumpers, jackets, hats, water bottles etc to ensure that it can be returned to your child when the lost property is sorted.

School Canteen
