🎢 Can you guess The Nits’ setlist? 🎢

Next Thursday, The Nits are hitting the stage at the Parents Battle of the Bands at The Croxton, so we thought we’d make things interesting πŸ‘€

Here are five clues for the five songs in their set. Drop your guesses in the comments ⬇️

🎀 Song 1: A 90s road-trip anthem involving "fun" and questionable life choices
🎀 Song 2: A classic singalong about being caught between two sides
🎀 Song 3: The world’s most relentlessly cheerful clap-along
🎀 Song 4: A power ballad from the era when rock bands had truly majestic hair
🎀 Song 5: An Australian heartbreak anthem that somehow still slaps in supermarket aisles

We’ll reveal the answers after the gig next Friday. Or you can take the faster route and hear them live!

πŸ“£ Fundraising update πŸ“£

The Northcote Primary School Fete raised $97K! Not bad for a Saturday πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

Great day, great result! There were packed crowds, kids owning the stage, brisket sold out early, and a community that truly showed up. From Shaun’s space buns to Name the Chicken fetching $250 (!) in the Silent Auction, it was a a whole of community spirit on display.

Huge shout-out to the amazing volunteers who made it happen. It was no small effort πŸ™πŸΌ

And another huge shout-out to the businesses and individuals who supported the fete. We appreciate you πŸ’›

The best part is, the funds raised are going straight back into the school: air con for the old building, 3D printer display/storage cases, new furniture and lockers, multimedia and STEM equipment, and a pull-out stage for the music rooms.

πŸ™ Thank you to our generous sponsors and local businesses who helped make the Northcote Primary School happen πŸ™

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who supported this year’s fete β€” all the businesses that donated to our Silent Auction, gave us discounted sausages and booze, and even loaned us clubs for mini golf (thanks What The Putt!).

A special thank you to Jellis Craig Inner North and Friendly Moving Men who proudly sponsored the fete once again. (The second pic is Matt McIntosh from Jellis Craig with Auction for an Auction winners Karen and Martin.)

Your generosity helps make community events like this possible and supports our school in a very real way πŸ’›

Well. That escalated quickly β€οΈπŸ’›πŸ’™πŸ’š

Slime the Teacher returned to the NPS Fete on Saturday, and let's just say Declan (Grade 5/6) wore it well after taking out the top votes.

But plot twist: for the first time ever, four students were slimed too β€” one for each house colour, thanks to some very committed Silent Auction bidders.

What followed? Absolute chaos. Slime everywhere. Zero survivors.

Auction for an Auction today was a nail biter! Congratulations to Martin and Karen who won with their $30k bid for their property in Thornbury. That’s $30k raised for Northcote Primary School! πŸŽ‰Huge! A big thank you to and for running the auction and again supporting our fete as a major sponsor.
