Footy Colours Day
On Tuesday we celebrated Footy Colours Day. Children came to school dressed in their favourite team's colours and the SAC arranged a special Footy-Themed Hot Dog Lunch. A huge thank you to Karen Inguanti, Narelle Diamandis and Grace Salice for all of their help on the day.
Festival Planting Afternoon
Last Wednesday, we had a fun festival planting afternoon! Parishioners came along and worked with the children to plant pots and seeds for the festival.
Parent Helpers Needed for Lunch Order Pickups
Thank you to all the parents who have been helping with lunch order pick-ups this term on a Tuesday and Friday.
If you are able to help next term we would be very grateful!
Please advise if you can assist with Subway or Baker's Delight Lunch order pickups on a Tuesday or Friday Morning.
Both stores are located at the Vermont South shops and all that's required is to collect the orders from the stores and drop them off to the school anytime before lunch (1.30pm).
If we have enough families volunteering then a roster can be devised and it will only be a commitment of couple of dates per term.
Please indicate your availability on the Audiri app form or email the office.
Lunch Time Clubs
This term children can participate in the following clubs during half of their lunch breaks:
Monday - Gardening Club with Mrs Congerton
Tuesday - Art Club with Mrs Turner
Wednesday - Fun & Games in the Library with Mrs Corcoran
Thursday - Cross stich Club with Ms. Congerton
Mobile Phones
Just a Reminder to students and parents of our rules and regulations regarding the use of mobile phones and other personal devices. In our Holy Saviour Acceptable Use of ICT Agreement, it states that students will, “give my teacher a written ‘BYOD consent form’ from my parents/guardians before bringing my own devices to school. Otherwise I will leave my equipment at home.” If you have an urgent message to get to your child, this is to be done via the office, even if your child is offsite at an excursion or interschool sport event. If you cannot get through on the phone, an email to office@hsvs.catholic.edu.auis always promptly responded to. This is important for the care and safety of all children at Holy Saviour.

Sun Smart!
As the weather continues to warm up it is timely to revisit ourSunSmart Policy. All students need to wear a hat at school for outside activities and come to school with sunscreen applied on exposed parts of the body. If your child has a skin sensitivity to sunscreen then please send an appropriate sunscreen product.
