100 Days of Kindergarten

We will be celebrating 100 Days of Kindergarten on Friday 28 July, Week 2, Term 3. Parents are invited to join us in our classrooms at 12:15pm for students to showcase their learning. This will be followed by the cutting of the celebratory cake and an optional picnic lunch with your child. Be aware that if you order a lunch from Pearl Perch, these usually arrive at 1:30pm.

Students can dress up as ‘what they want to be when they grow up’. Please do not go and buy costumes, we would prefer you to recycle what you have at home.

If you have any further questions please talk to your child’s class teacher.

***We would LOVE any empty and clean plastic squeezy sauce bottles to use as paint containers.***
