Week 9 Term 3, 10th September 2014 Dear Parents, Sue Mackay Principal
Quote for the Week:
Week 8 Term 4, 30th November 2016 Dear Parents, The start of December will mark the beginning of Christmas festivities and the end of year activities in the school. It will also be the start of students handing out Christmas cards. We love that children get so much pleasure in the giving and in the receiving of a simple card. We do ask that candy canes or sweets are not included in the envelopes. The rubbish aside that this creates, we end up with very unsettled sugar laden students and an army of ants marching in and out of school bags with big grins on their faces. Please keep it simple – cards only, and from Monday 5
th December.
Whilst we are not having a major library stocktake this year, there are large numbers of outstanding loans which need to be returned as soon as possible. Parents are unfortunately billed for lost school resources as the cost of replacing is prohibit ive for the school. Please check under beds and in cupboards for any resources which need to be returned. With lots of calendar dates jumping out at everyone during the next couple of weeks, please check our online calendar and the noticeboard out the front of the school for current information. Dates of the next seven school days: Friday 2
nd December: Year 6 Mufti Day – Gold Coin donation. Each gold coin will go towards hiring a Yr 6
personal helper for a period of time. All money raised by the senior students will go towards their farewell gift to the school. Christmas colour most welcome for Mufti! Tuesday 6
th December: Yr 6 - 7 High School Orientation. Students make their own way to the high school for the start of the

Deputy Report
Busy End of Year
As is the case every year, there
are many activities planned for all
stages for the last few weeks of school. A couple of hints
to ensure your child/children don’t miss out on
upcoming events.
Hint number 1: Keep an eye out in the school newsletter
for upcoming events as well as on the front gate
noticeboard.
Hint number 2: Check your child’s school bag everyday,
to make sure notes are not lost.
Hint number 3: Return notes signed and with correct
money as soon as possible.
Hint number 4: Mark events on your family calendar or
planner, so your child will be suitably attired/equipped
for that particular event.
Hint number 5: If you are unsure of any arrangements,
dates, events contact the school prior to the event so you
and your child can be adequately prepared.
Being proactive at this time of the year will hopefully
make what can be a stressful time of the year, an
enjoyable time of the year. Which is the intent for the
end of year frivolities.
Kindergarten Orientation
Here are some photos of the happy faces from
Kindergarten orientation that I mentioned in last week’s
newsletter.
