Update - Friends of Holy Cross

Wow, Term 3 is proving to be an exciting time for the Friends of Holy Cross.  We thank you all in advance for your support and involvement. Some important events coming up include:


Fathers’ Day Raffle – 31 August 2016

The Fathers’ Day raffle is closing soon so get your tickets in quick - the raffle is being drawn at the Fathers’ Day breakfast on Wednesday morning, so we are looking forward to sending some lucky dads home with a special raffle prize.  We have a golf bag as first prize and some other wonderful prizes on offer.  Spare order forms are available from the office. Closing date is 3.00pm Tuesday 30 August 2016.


Quiz Night – Friday 9 September 2016

Our Quiz Night is fast approaching – being held on Friday 9 September 6.30pm in the new Lyon Building.  Tickets are only $12 each – tables of eight.  Please get your table order forms in soon as we are limited to 20 tables.

We are urgently seeking an approved Manager for the Quiz Night and Volunteers to assist in the bar who have RSA certification.  If you can assist, please contact Susan Sorensen on 0417 967 067.

We have some wonderful donations from businesses far and wide, including a Scooter from Bike Force, Ballet and gymnastics classes, restaurant vouchers, BBQ pack from Bunnings, to mention a few.  Thank you to those who have brought in your small donations for the Quiz Night.  These will be used for the smaller raffle prizes.


Parent Camino Salvado Pilgrimage walk – Tuesday 13 September 2016

The next leg of the Parent Camino Salvado Pilgrimage walk is being held on Tuesday 13 September 2016 from East Perth to Guildford.  It is not necessary to have completed the first walk.  All parents, and even grandparents, are welcome to attend.  This is a marvellous way to experience what our children experience on their Pilgrimage walks and a great way to build your friendships within the College community.  Please return your form as soon as possible.
