ANZAC Day March

There is no organised ANZAC Day March this year. Families are encouraged to attend the services if they wish. Our school Captains will accompany Mrs Rainger to lay a wreath on behalf of the school. 

Mother’s Day Breakfast

Please put in your diaries our Annual Mother’s Day Breakfast on Friday 7 May. It would be great to see as many of our Mother’s, Grandmother’s and Care givers at the, breakfast as possible. It will begin at approximately 8:30am. There will also be a Mother’s Day stall following for students to purchase Mother’s Day gifts. Invitations will go home this week to get approximate numbers.

NAPLAN

NAPLAN testing will take place in Week 4 & 5 of this term. Students in Year 3 & 5 will sit tests for both Literacy and Numeracy. Please refrain from making appointments during school time while these tests are on. It is important that your child is available on the day unless they are unwell. In the case of illness students will re-sit the test at the most convenient time by the end of the week. 

Epi Pens and Ventolin 

Could you please remind your child that students need to bring Epi Pens and Ventolin sprays with them to Sport and other activities when we leave school. We always have emergency supplies with us in the First Aid Kits, but it is essential for your child’s safety that they are encouraged and regularly reminded to bring their own if a practioner has identified they require one. If you have not notified the school about changes in your child’s medical needs, please do so as soon as possible.

Winter Uniform

Students should be in full school winter uniform as of 1 June. If you have any issues with this or your child is out of uniform for a particular reason, could you please send in a note to their classroom teacher or speak to Mrs Dal Santo. This includes ties. At the start of Term 2 they may wear their winter uniform, however, they must be in full uniform – not a mix of Summer and Winter.
