On behalf of everyone at Mason Road Junior Public School, we would like to extend a huge thank you to the Mason Road community for their incredible support during our Book Fair last week. We would also like to thank the family and student volunteers for their invaluable help to make sure the book fair was a resounding success. As a community, we raised $4447 in total sales!! Approximately $2600 of that money will be used to purchase more resources for the school and library. None of this would be possible without the amazing Mason Road community. Thank you again and we hope everyone had a wonderful time at the Book Fair!

Hi Mason Rd community.

Just a point of clarification in case you may have received a paper note on Thursday stating that the return date to school is Jan. 29th. 

To be clear, the paper note should have stated Jan. 22nd (tomorrow). We had thought we caught all the errors in time, but it seems we missed some.

Thanks for understanding.

Reminder - Holiday Concert tomorrow (Thursday) at 6pm
