Welcome!

 

Welcome back one and all!  I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all our new students and families. It has been a busy start to the year with all classes well underway. Unfortunately due to very poor numbers Karate lessons have been cancelled for this year, we will certainly keep looking for other opportunities to expand the Youth Club in the future.

 

Our AGM was held last Monday night with the new committee listed below. Huge Thanks to Mr Paul Foley who has served as President for the past two years, stepping into unfamiliar territory learning as he went exactly what was required of a Youth Club President. His fantastic contribution overseeing the day to day running of the Youth Club is greatly appreciated not to mention assisting with moving gym equipment, setting up barbeques,   taking groups of children for Red Shield Appeal and ensuring the rest of the Committee were on task. Paul will still be around with his usual all hands on deck approach. Thanks again!

Code of Ethics

 

Please be aware that students of the CHP RSL Youth Club are bound by a Code of Ethics.  The Code of Ethics is recited at the beginning of all Youth Club Classes and Functions. We encourage all students to learn the Code of Ethics. At functions all in attendance should stand throughout the Code and there should be NO applause at the conclusion. If you are chosen to recite the Code of Ethics at a function please keep in mind your appearance and demeanour throughout.

 

All members will receive a copy of the Code of Ethics in class sometime over the next week, for our members 5—7years  please take the time to read it with them and in class instructors will be going over one line at a time so they will become familiar with the Code of Ethics. For all other age groups the children will be expected to learn the Code of Ethics and recite at Youth Club lessons.

 

Cadbury Chocolate Fundraiser

 

In Week beginning 8th March each  family will be given a box of chocolates to sell. Boxes will be handed out  during your normal classes. You will also be provided with an envelope to collect the money raised. Each box contains 48 pieces that sell for $1.20 a piece. For each box of chocolates you receive $25 towards your  children's’ costumes / trim / accessories /sequins and other end of year expenses.

 

All  money collected is to be returned to Megan Vranjkovic or Lisa McCarthy in the envelope provided first week back  of Term 2  If you are unable to sell all the chocolates, let me know and  return the remainder with the money collected asap as there may be other families looking for more to sell.
