Show Day Holiday
A reminder that this Friday is a Public Holiday. We hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!
Canteen Helpers Needed
Scotsburn are scheduled to assist Tracey in the canteen in the next few weeks. Special thanks to the wonderful volunteers below for offering their support.
Grandparents & Special Friends Morning
Thursday 7th November is Grandparents & Special Friends morning. We would like to invite all Grandparents and Special Friends along from 9am – 11am. It would be great if all families could send along a small plate of food for our guests to share from 10.30am in the Old Building. We are looking forward to what is always one of the highlights of the school year.
Bike Education
A reminder that this Friday is a Public Holiday. We hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!
Bring Your Bike to School Week
To coincide with the Bike Ed Sessions for the Gr 3-6’s, students from P-6 at Scotsburn are all encouraged to bring their bike and helmet to school from the 11th-15th November. Students will be using the bikes during PE sessions and also at break times. Bikes can be dropped off prior to the day for your convenience. All bikes will be locked away over night for their security.
New BBQ Area
Rick and Ken are doing a brilliant job building the new BBQ area. The money that was raised from the school fete is funding this project, which will most definitely get plenty of use for years to come. To celebrate the opening of this area, we will be having a BBQ for students and staff on Friday 15th November. Order forms will be coming home this week.
Awards
Icy Poles
Axel will again be selling icy poles for $1 on Thursdays.
Term 4 - Friday Rotations
Our next rotation for Term 4 will be on the (25th July). Our groups will be doing the following:
Lunch Order Roster
Lunch orders need to be collected from the Buninyong campus at 12.40 pm. Please ensure you organise a swap if necessary so that the students don’t go hungry!
School Bus Travel for 2020
Families who are eligible and wish to use one of the three country bus services next year are required to complete and return a new application form for their child/children and return it to the office by the end of Term 4.
Likewise, if your child/children attend our Scotsburn campus and would like to use our between campus service, a new application form is also required.
If your child/children are already bus travellers, we will be sending a form home with the eldest child in the family in the next few weeks. For new travellers, please call into the office to see Mel for an application form and further details.
Please note: All current bus rolls will be cleared at the end of Term 4 and only children for which we have new application forms for will be permitted to travel.
Thank you for your understanding.
