News from the Chicken Coop
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Thanks to the Mitchell and Loborec families for taking such great care of our school chickens over the last few weekends. We hope you got lots of eggs and baked lots of delicious goodies with them, yum!
Weekend Chicken Duty Roster
Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who have offered to do weekend chicken duty during term 3. The roster is now full right up until the September school holidays. We’ll put a call out for school holiday volunteers in the next newsletter.
Egg Lotto
For your chance to win 1 dozen eggs just buy an egg lotto ticket. Tickets are only $1 each! The next Egg Lotto draw will be Monday 2nd September.
We usually sell tickets in front of the school on Wednesday afternoons from 3:10-3:20pm, selling tickets to students, parents, grandparents and carers. If not, tickets are available to buy at any time, just bring your money into school and the Environment Leaders will help you out.
All the money we make is put back into buying food and other necessities for our chickens. There will be a few dozen eggs available to win so get your winning $1 raffle ticket soon!
Soft Plastic Reduction Initiative
Each day the Future Leaders are keeping a tally of how many wrapper free lunch boxes are in their classrooms. At the end of every 2 weeks we work out which classes have the highest percentages of wrapper free lunch boxes and the winners will be announced at assembly.
The two winning classes will receive one of the Environment Mascots to keep in their room for 2 weeks and they will also receive 15 class Dojo points!
The winners for weeks 4-5 are…
Prep and 3/4B
Several classes were again very close and just missed out. Keep up the great work everyone, just do your best and remember that every day is a new day.
