Community Update # 4.8

 

Welcome Back !!

It is wonderful to have all of the children and staff back at school now. On Wednesday, we celebrated this special occasion with an ice cream to say thank you. 

Thank you to the children and staff for all of their efforts during the lockdowns, isolation and Flexible Learning !!

Thanks to all of our parents for your support during the past few months. We enjoy seeing you at drop off and pick up times.

Next week, we will continue with the COVID safe entry and exit arrangements we currently have in place:

Prep, Year 5 & 6 BACK GATES

Years 1, 2, 3 & 4 FRONT GATES

Crossing Safety Reminder

Please ensure that the children cross at the crossing with the supervisor, especially when they enter and exit through the backyard gates.


Congratulations !!
Congratulations to two of our wonderful Year 6 leaders, Gianluca and Talia, who were recognised at the Higgins Award Ceremony by Dr Katie Allen this week. You can hear all about their leadership skills in the virtual assembly video on Monday.

2022 P&F Class Reps - Volunteers needed
We are currently looking for volunteers to be the P&F representatives in each class or year level for 2022. Being a class rep is a wonderful way to meet other parents, and is a huge support to the P&F Committee and the school. Thankyou to those parents who have already volunteered.
The main role of the Class Reps is to foster a sense of community within the year level by:
  • Welcoming new families who may join the school mid year
  • Being a conduit from the P&F to the families in your class / year in relation to P&F social events or fundraising efforts
  • Organising social events for your year level in conjunction with your other year level reps
