A fete is scheduled
to be held on
Saturday 2 May 2015.
The fete will be organised and
run by our school community
through the P&C.
Our school has not held a fete
in many years, so I am sure
that we will all want to make
this one a huge success.
In order for this to happen it
will require the support of a
band of willing helpers.
Community members who
are interested in being
involved can contact
Ka)e Jones,
Jane McIntyre
or the school office.
School Phone App
The P&C, on behalf of Dalmain Primary School, has now
purchased the Tiqbiz phone app to further enhance
communica)on between home and school.
The phone app is designed and organised through the
company Tiqbiz. The app has a number of features which I
am sure that parents will find very useful and informa)ve.
The app is free to download and there are no charges.
You will find below instruc)ons about how to install this app
on to your smart phone, tablet or computer.
Enjoy the new app and please contact the school with any
feedback that you have regarding this innova)on.
