Tuckshop News - Help Needed Help needed until recess this Friday 31st

Tuckshop Roster Coordinator Position Vacant 2019

Dear Coffee Camp parents,

It is time to start considering a replacement for the role of tuckshop roster co-ordinator, as sadly my youngest son will be finishing Year 6 at the end of the year and I will no longer be a Coffee Camp parent. As a parent who works on Fridays, co-ordinating the tuckshop roster has enabled me to contribute to the running of the tuckshop without having to actually be there in person. It has been a great way to remain engaged with the school community and still make a valuable contribution to the school, which can be difficult to juggle when working. The role itself does not require very much time, only an hour or so at the start of each school term collating the roster and communicating with Ros, plus a few tweaks of the roster here and there throughout the term. If you would like to find out some more about the role or if you have any questions, then you are most welcome to contact me via phone/text 0416 110 438 or linnie.de@bigpond.com. I have really enjoyed being the roster co-ordinator for the past 5 years and I would like to thank Ros, Susie G, Magali and the P & C committee for supporting me in this role. Many thanks, Linda.
