OH WHAT A NIGHT! – A WHITE CHRISTMAS IN JULY DELIGHT

It is true to say that when Wyvern Parents get together they KNOW HOW TO PARTY and the White Christmas in July event was no exception. The venue, food and people were all fabulous and everyone had a fantastic time. Thank you to the Kindy 2013 parents that assisted in organising the night with special thanks to Yamila and Mira. In addition, thank you to everyone that came along and helped Phil Argy and myself celebrate our last Wyvern function. It was a truly special occasion as my eldest son started in Kindy at Wyvern where I assisted with that Christmas function, so I feel I have gone full circle. All the wonderful comments about my time at Wyvern that Philip Argy presented were quite touching and I was truly surprised by all the love in the room. Thank you to all. It was a great night all round.

Congratulations to Rebecca Turnbull who won the lucky door prize of a TABLE of 10 at the Black & White Ball. You will have 8 new best friends. In addition, congratulations to Adam Hicks (Edward KL) who won the raffle prize of a table of 10 to the Black and White Ball.

Father’s Day gifts are now available to purchase through the flyer. Chocolates, Sesquicentenary cuff links and movie tickets are all available to look after dad’s needs. Please have the orders returned to the front office by 14th August.

FATHER’S DAY BREAKFAST

The annual Wyvern Father’s Day Breakfast will be held on Friday 30th August at 7:30am in the Wyvern Hall. The breakfast is open to all fathers and grandfathers of the Wyvern boys and is always fun.
