P&C EVENTS
SUBIACO PRIMARY SCHOOL
Most of the organised events are at pre-set times of the year to fit in with the school’s busy schedule. If you want to organise an event outside of these times, please email the events coordinator and school principal to see if the timing is suitable.
An Events Instruction Manual has been prepared to assist those people running events on behalf of the P&C.

Kindy - Book Fair
Each year Subiaco Primary School P&C runs a Book Fair to raise funds. The Book Fair service is provided by a global organisation called Scholastic. Scholastic provides the books and other associated products such as kids pens/erasers/sharpeners and sometimes small toys. Scholastic also provides most of the sales and marketing tools. Scholastic allocates a percentage of the sales revenue to the P&C as a sales “commission”. The actual percentage depends on whether the P&C chooses to take the commission as books, cash or a mix.
Pre-Primary - Movie Night
A very popular all-of-family event on the school calendar is the Movie Night. Held late in the year, outside on the school oval, it is a wonderful opportunity for all school families to watch a family movie together, enjoy each others company and celebrate another great school year.
Year 1 - Big Night Out
The Big Night Out is the major social event and fundraiser for the Subiaco Primary School year. In recent years there has been a Cocktail Night, an Art Exhibition, a Quiz Night, a Dinner Dance and a Bollywood Evening. The idea is that there is a “big” big night out every second year, with the in-between years being of a smaller scale.

Parents donate plates of Healthy sausage/vege rolls, Sushi, Rice paper rolls, Somosa’s, Banana Bread / Fruit bread, Fruit/savoury scone, Mini yoghurts, Pancakes, Crepes, Mini quiche, Vege sticks with dip, Popcorn, Fruit kebabs, Healthy muffins, biscuits, slices, cakes for children to purchase at recess.
