INFO SHEET AND HOW YOU CAN HELP

Our 7th annual Welcome to School Beach Event is a major P&C Fundraiser and will be held Friday March 20th at Austinmer Beach and Pools from 12.30pm to approximately 5pm. Everyone is welcome so please spread the word and bring family and friends.

In conjunction with the Beach Circuit and Activities, Paul Empson and his crew obtain sponsors for laps of the pools. Can we beat last year's laps? In addition to the swim challenge, we will hold some fundraising stalls during the event.

For this event to be a success we need your help in a number of ways.....
