Help us help our girls – Fundraising for the Parents Forum Hardship Fund
 

Dear Parents and Caregivers, 

You might already know that we have been busy with fundraising for those students who are in a difficult financial situation. The result of The Style Doctors was satisfactory however we still have several great raffle prizes left over. We will be raffling two bags with fantastic beauty products, each one in the value of $ 200.00. These products were donated by Stirling Sports in Takapuna and Care Chemist in Sunnynook.

 
 
 
 
Every parent, student and staff member will be able to buy tickets from us and the Parents Forum Student Representatives. The tickets will go on sale at the end of next week. Please go to our Parents Forum page on the Westlake Girls website for all additional information. (www.westlakegirls.school.nz – scroll down to the end of the page on the right)

1 ticket for $ 2.00

3 tickets for $ 5.00

 

The raffle closes on Monday the 5th of November and the winner will be announced during lunch on Tuesday the 6th of November. We will confirm the winning numbers as well on the Parents Forum page.

In advance we would like to thank you for your support, your help is highly appreciated.

First WGHS Teachers Morning Tea

Dear Parents and Caregivers,


Term 4 has started and there is still so much to do. We can ask ourselves, where did the time go? In some stores you can already buy Christmas decorations..................

Before the school year ends, we will be organizing the first "Teachers Morning Tea" on Friday the 9th of November. This will be a yearly event and a day we'll be thanking the teachers for everything they have been doing for our daughters. The staff do many extra hours outside of their contract which enables Westlake Girls to run their activities such as sports on the weekend, music events, weekend trips, outdoor education activities just to name a few.

We would like to ask your support with baking (sweets and savouries) which can be delivered at school on the 9th of November at 9 am.  Please contact me if you are able to bake, we would like to have an equivalent amount of sweets and savouries.

In advance we would like to thank you for your help, it is very much appreciated.

Thank you and we are looking forward to hearing from you.

Warmest regards,

Parents Forum
