Buxton Primary School Fundraiser Committee

We’d love to welcome anyone interested in supporting our beautiful little school to join us tomorrow (Thursday 22nd) at 2:45pm, just before school finishes.

We’ll be gathering to brainstorm fundraising ideas for the year ahead — all to help create some incredible opportunities for our kids!

Where? Outside near the playground (plenty of space for kids to play while we chat). If it’s raining, we’ll move into the kitchen room.

Your input, ideas, and time would be so greatly appreciated — we can’t wait to see you there!

Wishing our Buxton PS families and community a happy Easter! We look forward to welcoming students back to school on Tuesday.

Here is a flashback to our Buxton PS Athletics Fun Day in the last week of Term 1. All students participated and displayed good sportsmanship.

Get ready for an exciting day on Monday, 31st March, from 12–2pm, as our students unleash their energy in a series of fun athletics events right here on the school grounds! It's the perfect opportunity for families to cheer on their athletes and even join in on a few events themselves – the more, the merrier!

After the festivities, we invite you to stay for a relaxed BYO picnic lunch, and then join us for our whole-school assembly at 2:30pm. It’s going to be a day full of energy, community spirit, and lots of fun.
