Cultural Evening Term 4: Monday 21st October
As has been our tradition, we will celebrate our wonderful, diverse community by holding a cultural evening on October 21st in Term 4, Week 3.
We would love it if families would be willing to run a traditional game with a small group and are calling for any families that would like to bring along a traditional dish to share.
Please find attached a Google Form to complete both to volunteer for a game and food as well as an RSVP so that we know how many to cater for.
Hats
The sun is finally starting to shine brightly... time to start packing hats in school bags.
St Therese's is a SunSmart School and has a 'no hat, no play' policy. We will be lenient for the next few weeks but come Term 4 we expect to see hats on heads.
Smile Patrol - Dentist Visit
CLOSES THIS THURSDAY 5/9/24
Say goodbye to the hassle of making dental appointments, taking time off work, and disrupting your schedule just to ensure your child receives dental care. Smile Patrol is coming to St Therese's Primary School at the beginning of Term 4 so your child will benefit from dental care during school hours, so easy!
Smile Patrol provides free dental health education to all students. If your child is eligible under the Childcare Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) treatments can be done for free depending on the remaining benefits. If your child is not eligible we will send you an email with an option for a private checkup. But to do this we need your consent. To sign up you can visit : https://smilepatrol.com.au/consent-form/ It’s very easy and takes less than 5 mins to complete or use the QR code below.
