Moonlit Sanctuary Excursion: Next Thursday 1st August, the Year 3 students will be going on an excursion to Moonlit Sanctuary. Please make sure to consent and pay on compass as soon as possible.

Drink bottles: Please remember to bring a drink bottle to school every day. It saves disruption to your child's learning when this is accessible within the room. They are able to fill up their bottles in a nearby classroom.
