Handmade by St Catherine’s Stall

This year we plan to have a stall of items made by St Catherine’s students, families and friends.

We are planning to host some 1 hour making sessions after school on alternate Tuesdays and Wednesdays in Term 4 to make treasures to sell. Students and families are also encouraged to make treasures at home for the stall.

We would like student committee to decide what to make and will have meetings this term for interested children and families to help plan the making sessions. Some ideas we have already come up with are Tie died t-shirts and pencil cases, Christmas Decorations, Bath Bombs, Kris Kringle gifts and reusable Christmas wrapping.

If you or someone you know has a skill to share, we’d love you to help out. Students will need to be accompanied by an adult at these sessions.

So far we need people who can:

• cut fabric in to shapes
• knit, sew or crochet (we also need people to teach these skills to the children)
• iron
• help clean up
• help label and package items in jars and bags

We ask that interested students and adults put their name and family email address down on the form in the Learning Hub by the end of August so we can plan days and dates. If you have an extended family member or friend who would like to be involved or have any questions, please let Karen (Lily from FDW’s Mum) know via email. Karen.glancy@optusnet.com.au
