We are selling all of the following before our move back to Australia on 21 December. (FYI, the reason we have so much to sell is that we moved here fro 10 months temporary stay, leaving all our chattels in Australia, and then decided to stay, so we had to buy everything for the house we moved to! As a result most of the items listed below are under 3 years old). We would prefer to hold most of these things till 15 December if possible , though some of them we can do without prior to this...)

Attended by: Westminster PTA: Executive board, parent class representatives and committee members, Westminster staff: Terry Hedger, Ed Sterling

Westminster staff includes Terry Hedger principal, Ed Sterling, Dean of Students, and other Westminster staff as needed. Susan thanked everyone for their participation and noted that this group forms the framework for parent support of the school and has tremendous benefits for our children’s education. The PTA REC contact list was passed around to check for accuracy. A number of committees could still use additional members.
