THE GREAT WYVERN BAKE OFF

The end of year is nearly here and we all need the time to gather ourselves and organise summer play days and birthday parties. As the Great Garden party was such a HUGE success we thought to continue the theme of baking and have a BAKE OFF. That’s right – year group against year group to provide the best cake they can make to be judged and eaten by the whole of Wyvern. The afternoon will be a catch up in Mary Andrews Garden with pizza slices and lemonade for sale.

We need 6 “bakers” from each year group to volunteer to be the YEAR GROUP BAKER (YGB).

If you would like to enter yourself into the WYVERN BAKE OFF please send an email to James Fairbank –

thefairbankfamily@gmail.com

with

  • Name
  • Year group
  • Phone
  • Sons name

More information will come out via your Class Parent. Thank you to the parents of Year 4 for bringing together this fun afternoon.

ORIENTATION FOR NEW STUDENTS

On Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd October orientation for the 2014 incoming students will be taking place. Don’t forget how exciting and scary this was as a new parent so please if you see a new face in the hall smile and say hi, everything will be just fine. We are looking for assistance in the Uniform Shop to help the new families. If you are available on either of those mornings please email Marie Martin mmartin01@optusnet.com
