Parents and Friends Update
Thank you to the Kingsavanh Family for supplying Friday’s cake raffle and the Taubert family for harvesting produce from the garden. We raised $42.70 from ticket sales. Raffle tickets are available for purchase in the courtyard each Friday before assembly.
Our school and kinder disco is coming up on Friday August 2nd. Please see the calendar in this newsletter for timing. The theme for this year will be ‘Rainbow’ for Kindergarten & Junior School. And for Senior School there will be no theme, so senior students are welcome to dress up however they choose.
This Friday July 26th we have our Term 3 Head Lice Checks which will take place after assembly. Our Head Lice Program is very beneficial and its continued success is down to the support of parent volunteers. If you are able to help out with conducting these checks please inform the school office. You will need to have a valid WWCC.
