October Presidents Report

Wow…. How fast is this year passing? It seems like yesterday that I was sitting here writing the September report. Now we are 1 month into spring and the flowers in our street are in full bloom and the sun is starting to shine.

I hope you all enjoyed your school holidays and that some of you managed to attend our school holiday events at the Tessellar Tulip Festival and Caldermeade Farm.

Looking at my list of events beside me it’s an instant reminder that my twins birthday is not too far away and Christmas is fast approaching. Plenty of shopping for me still to do!

Our Fathers Day Picnic Breakfast was a great morning to celebrate all that our dads do for us day in day out. We had 37 members attend. We enjoyed some yummy egg and bacon rolls and sausages and played some fun games. Everyone seemed to have a great time. It was wonderful to see some new members in attendance.

Hop into Sports will continue next term starting Thursday 6th October at a new venue.The kids are having a lot of fun at this event and learning some new sporting skills. Keep in mind that you can turn up any week to this event for just $2 per child.

Also starting on Thursday the 6th October is an exciting new weekly event in Gippsland. CDMBA have set up a Playgroup similar to Berwick with students studying Early Childhood supporting the sessions. Gippsland Playgroup will run during school terms on Thursdays from 9:30am-11:30am.

It is a fantastic indoor and outdoor facility suiting all age groups. Thank you Meredith for offering to facilitate this wonderful event.

CDMBA is hosting another Multis In School night in October. If you have multiples starting kinder or school in 2017 then this is the event to help you make the right decisions that suit your family. Presenting on the night will be a panel of teachers and parents with valuable experience on multiples in school.

Our next Parents dinner is fast approaching and will be held at Pind Baluchi Indian Restaurant in Narre Warren.

Last but certainly not least is our biggest annual fundraiser for the year, the CDMBA Trivia Night. Held at Balla Balla in Cranbourne on Saturday 5th November. Don’t forget to reserve your table for a night of fun and games.

I hope you are all enjoying what CDMBA has to offer and I look forward to seeing you at an event in the near future. Tara xx
