District Basketball
A big well done to all students involved in last week’s District Basketball Competition. All students played wonderfully and represented the school proudly.
Thank you to all those who were able to come along to support the students and a particular mention goes out to Dean, Brooke and Jess for helping to coach the teams.
Results for the day can be found here. Congratulations to the Girls A team who will be progressing through to the next round at Division Basketball. We wish them all the very best.

Orienteering Program
We had our very first lunchtime orienteering session last Thursday and it was a wonderful opportunity for our students to learn navigational skills and explore some of our school surroundings using these skills. Well done to those who came along.
The program is set to continue for a further three sessions and new participants are welcome. Please contact Claire Morris if you have any further questions.
Lunchtime Lawn Bowls
What a great turn out we had at our Lunchtime Bowls session last Wednesday. We had 32 students from all year levels learn and practice their skills with our wonderful Buninyong Bowls Club members – Rob (Ocky), Bob and Bill. The program will run on Wednesday lunchtimes (excluding 21/8) until the end of term and any student from Prep to Grade 6 is invited along. Please meet Ms Morris in the gym at lunchtime on Wednesdays and we will walk across to the bowling club together.
Blast Cricket:
Once again, we will be taking part in the Blast Cricket at Victoria Park on 21 October (Grade 3+4’s) and 22 October (Grade 5+6). Tryouts will take place at lunchtime in the gym on 28 August (girls) and 30 August (boys). Please encourage your child to attend if they are interested.
We are also very keen to hear from any parent interested in helping us out with a team (or more). Please contact Claire Morris if you are interested in helping out.
P.E. Shoes
A reminder that students need to have clean, dry sports shoes for P.E. We recommend bringing a spare pair to school to ensure maximum participation in class, particularly in Term 2+3 when the weather is a bit wetter. To find out when your child has P.E., please check your Compass portal.
