<div>Like many of you, my children were fortunate enough to be cared for during before and after school hours at Manly West Public School by a truly unique and incredible BASC service.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What they experienced and leant at BASC has stayed with them well into young adulthood and they still have vivid, happy memories of their BASC friends and highly respected educators.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As you may know, the Manly West P&amp;C has discontinued the BASC service and it has been outsourced to a commercial provider.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a result, all of the wonderful BASC educators and management will end their employment there this term.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As part of the community that was made richer for the commitment, kindness, dedication and professionalism of the BASC educators, a group of us are trying to ensure they enjoy an appropriate send-off on 11 September 2026 at the Balgowlah Bowls Club.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To do this we need around $5,000 to book a function area, food and drinks for their farewell.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you can spare a few dollars to help make this happen, I think it would mean a lot to the staff, some of whom have worked there for a long time - talking decades! - and are important driver's of our community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>(**If we raise more money than is required for the function, the group will buy staff a gift with the balance).</em>
</div>
<div>(***Appears there is some confusion. The banner for this page is only that, a banner, not an invitation to the event itself.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for all your support so far@
</div>
