CAMBA is welcoming everyone into 2024 with one of our favourite events of the year! Kew Traffic school is one of the events that really sets the club up for the year, not only in helping the cub fundraise money BUT more importantly being able to get together with friends and family after the break. We have the 4pm session, so this means we can provide dinner in the form of a sausage sizzle!!   Kew Traffic School is full of roads, roundabouts, intersections, traffic lights, street signs, railway crossings and mini trams. It is a great place for children aged between 2 and 10 years to gain confidence and develop road safety skills, away from the dangers of real traffic, BUT we also want to see those with multiples under 2 come along as well. There is plenty of grassy undercover areas to put a picnic rug out, even if it's only for one hour. Bring along grandparents to help as well. The more the merrier! The track is suitable for bikes, scooters and ride-on pedal cars. It’s important to note:- children need to bring their own bicycle or scooter and helmet. Carers or parents must stay and supervise their children. CAMBA has organised lots of fun things for the day... including a sausage sizzle which means dinner is served!, fundraising activities for the kids, plus much more....... so please bring along Gold Coins or notes are also welcome ;) RSVP HERE  or the event link below. 

We are planning a get together to celebrate all the hard work of CAMBA this past year. This invitation is open to anyone who has helped this past year, whether you are in the committee, helping at events, or just supporting the club in general!  We have booked a table at Okra restaurant. The menu sounds delicious and we can't wait to try their food. OKRA RESTAURANT MENU Pre payment is required as part of this RSVP as we will try to make it easier on the night for everyone. It's BYO wine ONLY with a $5 charge, so please feel free to bring a bottle and we can share it around. Please also bring some extra cash so we can fix up any difference with the restaurant on the night.  Can you please confirm whether you have any dietary requirements when you register. Look forward to seeing you all there.  Catherine CAMBA President  president@camba.amba.org.au

Have your kids started school this year, or will they be starting in 2024/2025? CAMBA are hosting an evening for parents to catch up and discuss all things related to starting school. It’s a big moment for kids and parents, and this is an opportunity to meet other parents, discuss any concerns, and share ideas about multiples and singletons starting school. If your children started school recently, this is a chance to discuss how things are going. Perhaps you’ve had some issues that you’re struggling to solve. Maybe you’ve got some great ideas to share with those about to start school. If your children are about to embark on their primary school journey, come along and ask those burning questions and learn from those who have experienced the high and lows!  It is an opportunity for parents to connect and talk about their concerns, share our collective knowledge, and hopefully meet other local parents whose children are going to the same school as yours. We will also have a 'parent panel' made up of CAMBA members.  All these members have a range of school years and experiences under their belt, and are excited to share their learnings!  Drinks and nibbles will be provided. Register your attendance by clicking on the 'Get Ticket' link here!  RSVP by the 8th November so we can arrange food accordingly.  *Please note that this is not a 'school readiness' seminar.
