ANZAC DAY INFORMATION

Mungindi Central School students from Preschool

to Year 12 who wish to march at the ANZAC Day

commemorations are asked to meet Ms Blaker at

the front of the RSL club on Thursday 25 April from

10:15 am. Students are to be in full school

uniform including hats. It would be wonderful to

see as many students in school uniform and in

attendance as possible.

From the Principal, Staff and Students at Mungindi Central

School, we wish you all a Happy Easter. Please remember

to stay safe during the school holidays, especially if you are

travelling the roads. We are looking forward to seeing you

all again on Tuesday 30 April, 2019.


PRESCHOOL CAPERS

We have been continuing to reinforce having a healthy lifestyle with obstacle courses each morning,

reminders to drink water and looking at everyday and sometimes foods in our lunch boxes and

eating healthy snacks. We taste tested healthy dairy drinks of banana and strawberry smoothies – as

next term the children can purchase these smoothies for 50c or just a cup of milk for 20c. I have

provided information about drinking water which we have been explaining to the children.

Easter was our general undercurrent this week, with Easter songs, stories and craft available for the

children to participate in. Yesterday we had a big Easter Celebration Day. We went to the Town

Library to read Easter books and sing Easter songs with other members of the community. Then all the

community were invited back to preschool to join in play, craft, songs, Easter hat parade and egg

hunt. In the afternoon we were lucky to have another Easter Hat parade when Mungindi Central

School Primary students and parents visited us.

REMINDER THAT TODAY IS PRESCHOOLERS LAST DAY. Friday 12 April is a pupil free day for Preschool

students. Preschool students can return to school on Wednesday 1 May.

CentreCare:- Each Wednesday we are learning from the CentreCare staff. We will continue the

sessions from Wednesday 1 May from 10:30 am - 11:00 am.

Friday 10 May:- Mother’s Day High Tea.

STAGE 4 STUDENT LAPTOP PROGRAM

Stage 4 students will have access to new Chromebooks (a type of

laptop) for their school studies. Students and their families will

need to sign an agreement with the school before a

Chromebook will be assigned. A deposit of $50 is required for

each laptop. $30 of this is refunded to families at the end of the

contract agreement, and $20 is to be used by the school for

ongoing maintenance of the device.

Contracts will be sent out for parents and students to sign by the

end of term, and Chromebooks will be used from Term 2 onwards.

PRESCHOOL & PRIMARY ASSEMBLY

Primary assembly took place on Tuesday. We handed out Pearl Awards to

students who have earned 100 DOJOS this term. We also handed out

Classroom Awards for students that have excelled over the last fortnight. Preschool students also

YEAR 6 EASTER RAFFLE

The Year 6 Easter Raffle fundraiser was drawn yesterday afternoon.

Congratulations to K Holten for winning our Easter Raffle and B Prince and Mrs

Smith for winning the 2nd prize. Thank you to everyone for supporting our Year

6 fundraiser Easter Raffle. We raised $120.00 which will go towards the

purchase of Year 6 Graduation Shirts.

STUDENT LUNCHES

If your child forgets their lunch, or you are running late, their lunches must

be dropped at the Administration Office for delivery to the student. Under

no circumstances are parents to deliver the lunches to the classrooms. This

is to ensure that there is no disruptions to the classrooms so students can

have the best possible learning experience.
