SKiPPS Newsletter - Issue 20 As we reach the end of Semester One and prepare for a well-earned holiday break, I have found myself reflecting on just how much our students, staff and community have achieved together over the first half of the year.

📣 Sizzle Up Some Support for SKiPPS This Sunday! 🌭🏀

This Sunday, our SKiPPS Basketball community will be firing up the BBQ at Bunnings Port Melbourne as part of a fundraising sausage sizzle to support improvements to basketball facilities and opportunities for our students.

If you're planning a weekend DIY project, stocking up on supplies, or simply looking for a tasty lunch, we'd love to see you stop by and support the stall.

A huge thank you goes to the generous local businesses who have helped make this fundraiser possible:

🌭 Kirkpatrick's Meats at South Melbourne Market for supplying the sausages

🍞 Grain Emporium Wholesale for donating all of the bread

Your support of our school community is greatly appreciated.

We would also like to thank Matthew Barbuto and the SKiPPS Basketball teams, along with the many parent volunteers who are giving up their time on Sunday to make the day a success.

📍 Where: Bunnings Port Melbourne
📅 When: Sunday 21 June
⏰ All day

Come down, grab a sausage, say hello, and help support SKiPPS Basketball. Every sausage sold helps create more opportunities for our students.

🌭🏀💚💛
