What a cracking afternoon! 70 Burraneer Bay Dads enjoyed an afternoon of barefoot bowls at Club Cronulla on a beautiful spring Friday afternoon.

The event was a chance for dads across the school to connect, meet other Dads and parents, and have some fun. Dads from every year group were mixed into teams of four for a friendly competition, very well organised by Jamie Carson. With some fun prizes on offer, the competition was taken seriously by many, proving that our kids’ competitive spirit clearly comes, at least in part, from their Fathers!

Club Cronulla gave us really positive feedback on the exemplary behaviour of our Dads, and we’re pleased to report that most were home at a very reasonable hour. A big thank you to Parso and the guys for organising the event. It’s building great momentum in Dads’ engagement with the school community, and we look forward to the next one.

Prize selections have been reopened until 12 pm on Wednesday 28 October!

We still have a number of children who raised funds for our Colour Run but have not successfully submitted their prize selections.

If you haven't selected your child's prizes, please log in to myprofilepage.com.au and complete your selections before the deadline. A few important things to check:

• ✅ Confirm your submission: Your selected prizes should appear under 'Prizes Submitted', with images displaying a watermark. If this section is blank, your selections have not been recorded.

• 👧 Multiple children? Please check each child's profile individually, as some families have successfully submitted prizes for one child but not another.

• 💻 Technical difficulties? Try accessing the portal on a laptop or desktop computer rather than your phone.

• 📧 Still having trouble? As a last resort, please contact the P&C (president.bbpspandc@gmail.com) with your child's name and a clear list of their preferred prizes, and we can submit them manually. You should have received an email from us yesterday if your prize selection did not go through, and you can reply directly to that email. 

No time to make your selections? Don't worry! We will choose prizes on your child's behalf so they don't miss out. If you would prefer your child not to receive a prize, please let us know.

A huge thank you to all our families for your incredible fundraising efforts! We can't wait to distribute the prizes and celebrate the children's amazing contribution to our school community! 💚

All parents, carers and members of the Burraneer Bay school community are welcome at the P&C’s Term 4 General Meeting.

• When: Tuesday 17 November 2026, 7.00pm

• Where: Staffroom, Burraneer Bay Public School 

This is an important meeting. Members will be asked to adopt a new set of Rules for the P&C, replacing our current By-laws, along with a suite of updated policies. Together these set out how the P&C makes decisions, manages its funds and looks after the people involved in it. You’ll also hear the latest on P&C events, fundraising and projects.

Want a say? Anyone can attend, but only P&C Members can vote. Membership is $5 a year and is open to all parents and carers of BBPS students, and to community members living in the school’s enrolment area. You can join at the meeting, but new memberships take effect at its close, so you won’t be able to vote on the night. To vote on the 17th, you’ll need to have joined at an earlier meeting.

IMPORTANT: If you plan to nominate for an Executive role at the March 2027 AGM, your membership must be approved at this November meeting. So, get joining! 

If you’d like a copy of the agenda or have any questions, please email the Secretary at secretary.bbpspandc@gmail.com.
