  • What an amazing ‘Welcome back to school Movie Night and BBQ’ on Saturday 3rd We had so many families attend this free event. Thank you to Bart Mellish, Lions Club of Aspley, GF Sistas and our Craigslea Leadership team for making this night possible. Also, a special thank you to our student leaders for putting together a little welcome information video that was played prior to the movie. We sure loved seeing you on the big screen!

  • We had a large turn out to our first P&C meeting of the year. Thank you to those parents that joined us in person or online and our staff Leadership Team for also attending. Our 3 key messages from the meeting: 1) The P&C will purchase our wonderful groundsman, Jay, an industrial mower to make his large mowing job a lot easier; 2) P&C will donate $200 to kick start the ‘Pay it Forward’ account on Munch Monitors; 3) There is outstanding support for fundraising activities (such as our Summer Free Dress, Bunnings BBQ in December, and Movie Night), and we’re quickly approaching the target for our new water coolers.
  • Swim club – we are still waiting to hear from Craigslea High School about the pool maintenance. Updates will be provided on the CSAC facebook page when available.
  • Can you help? Volunteering opportunities available

  1. Five cent February
  • Five cent February has started! Each class is challenged to collect as many five cent pieces as they can.
  • This year we are excited to announce donations can be made in two ways: either place 5c coins into the classroom container (this will be collected and counted every Wednesday) or donate through Munch Monitors. When you place your lunch order, simply select your donation option (5c, $1, $10) under either big lunch or second break.
  • The current top 3 classes (in no particular order) are: 3DM, 5/6K, 1C.
  • Don’t forget - the classroom who raises the largest amount will win a special prize.

  1. OSHC afternoon programs for term 1 and 2
  • Kylie and her amazing OSHC team have been busy organising some extra circular activities for after school during term 1 and 2.
  • For term 1 we have InRhythm Drumming sessions on Monday afternoon hitting the beat. Then Thursday afternoons are filled with creative flare from RawART.
  • Term 2 has Young Engineers getting our young Einstein’s engaged in building projects and Hip Hop Lessons to get them busting a move.
  • Please contact OSHC to find out more about these amazing sessions. 
  1. Rockaoke – Saturday 11th May
  • Ok, so this event isn’t on until May but you just might want some time to rehearse your performance. What is Rockaoke you ask? It is karaoke but instead of just recorded music playing will get to sing on stage with a live rock band backing you. You can sing solo or with a group of your friends.
  • This will be an adult only fundraiser event with tickets available for purchase. More information to come but in the meantime click on this link to listen the Rockaoke playlist
