It's time for Term 4!

I hope your child/ren have had a restful and fun holiday break and are ready for another action-packed term of learning as we head into Term 4 on Monday.

🛝 Playground opening

We are excited our new playground is ready and we will have our official opening at 9:05 am - we will cut a ribbon, have some speeches, take official photos and then the most exciting part - play! As you know, this playground has been a long time in the making, and each and every one of you have contributed towards its development through participating in fundraising opportunities. I cannot thank you enough. We would love to see you at the opening on Monday morning.

🧢Hats

It's hat season. Your child/ren must wear a school hat when they are outside. Please ensure this is sorted and ready to go for Monday. A top tip: write their name in very large writing under the brim, and it is less likely to go astray that way.

👕Term 3 Lost property

This will be donated to the charity store at the end of week 1; this is your final opportunity to have a look through. All clothing (4 black bags full) is unnamed.

📅Important Term 4 dates - please take special note of our teacher only day (and school closed) Friday 15th November.
