Scotch Parents Family Welcome BBQ - 30 January 2017
A very successful Family Welcome BBQ was held in MacKellar Hall on the evening of Monday 30 January to welcome back current and new families to the new school year. The weather didn't dampen the evening (no pun intended)…… Our team of volunteers led by Melissa Harkins and Scotch Catering served over 1500 sausages with salad and refreshments. Feedback was very positive.

Middle School Morning Tea
Steph Debnam and I welcomed the Middle School parents at a morning tea on behalf of Scotch Parents. It was a chance to introduce ourselves and to seek parent interest in being a class reps for the year. A Middle School Sundowner will be held shortly and a notice will go out this week.

2017 Scotch Parents Biennial Ball - Saturday 1 April 2017
The theme for the Ball is "Fools Gold" in a marquee on the Scotch grounds. Save the date and plan a table. Ticket price set at $250 per person.
This event is a not-for-profit event and a great opportunity to socialise with other Scotch parents, dancing the night away under a balmy starlit night.
