Assistant Principal Report

Hello Everyone,

Family Fun Afternoon

This Friday, the 8th March, we are having our Family Fun Afternoon. 

Looking forward to seeing you there!  Here is a map to show you where each of the activities will be:

Some activities require a gold coin donation. Money will also be needed for Zooper

Doopers and the Coffee Van (selling iced coffee, frappes, slushies, choc tops and gelati’s)

Please use the supervised crossing

When picking up or dropping off your child/ren, please use the supervised crossings. 

We have been noticing a number of adults, with children, just crossing the road directly in front of the main school gate. While you may not see this as an issue, it is demonstrating to students that this is ok. Young children can form the belief that this is safe behaviour and they try to copy. I have had to stop some children from running across the road.

Please assist by being an excellent role model and use the supervised crossing.

Pride and Integrity Raffle 

This raffle, to recognize all of the students who are attending school on time, will continue this year. This is to acknowledge the students demonstrating Pride and Integrity by being ready to learn each day.

Every student who is at school, and in their classroom, before the bell (9am) will have their name added to the class attendance box. So, if they are present every day of the week, on time, they will have 5 entries into the raffle. 

Last week’s class winners were: 

FA – Snit, FB – Riley, 1A – Iang, 1B – Adrian, 2A – Abdullah, 2C – Thahira, 3C – Audrey, 4B – Dillan, 4C – Ava, 5A – Enzo, 5B – Ryan, 5C – Gurjaap, 6B – Jacob, 6C - Reina.

The raffle winner was Adrian from 1B! Congratulations!
