Dear Families,

Welcome to Week 10 of Term 4! This is our final newsletter for the year. Friday 15th is the last day for

students.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and an amazing vacation period with loved ones and look forward to seeing

everyone at the start of a new school year in 2018. School commences for students on Tuesday 30th

January, 2018. Best Start assessments will take place for Kindergarten between Tuesday and Thursday with

the first official Kindergarten start date being Friday 2nd February, 2018.

On the first day of school students will assemble on Quad when the bell rings. For a short time they will be in

their 2017 class until 2018 enrolment numbers are finalised.

Reports will be coming home with students on Thursday 14th December, 2017.

Stage three has thoroughly enjoyed entertaining this morning at the annual Talent Quest. We are looking

forward to Presentation day and evening

tomorrow followed by the Year 6 farewell on

Wednesday evening. Friday afternoon will

see the traditional Year 6 farewell arch

formed on Quad at 2:45pm.

Warm regards,

Melinda Williams

PBL Positive Behaviour for Learning

Each week a student or teacher is

recognised for being a respectful,

responsible learner.

When students or teachers receive a ‘PBL

Bee’ they put their Bee into the hive outside of 1L.

On Monday mornings the hive is raided and a winner is

drawn.

The winners have their photo recorded for posterity in

the PBL on display cabinet outside the Stage 2

classrooms.

This week’s winners are:

Kailo KG

Jesse 1F

Annie 3/4K

Tom 5M
