OSHC Update

On Tuesday night, School Council was presented to by shortlisted OHSC providers – we were really impressed with those presentations and we are now in the process of appointing a new provider. We will write to you in the coming weeks with an update. 

Working Bee

Our final Working Bee of the year is locked in for 19th November at 1pm. There will be a variety of jobs including sanding, painting, weeding, and moving mulch. All students who attend will receive a Canteen Voucher at the following assembly. Further details will follow in the coming weeks. 

2024 Volunatary Contributions

School Council and the Finance Sub-Committee is in the process of determining voluntary Parent Contributions for 2024. Contributions in 2023 have allowed us to purchase many new items for the school including new books and a defibrillator, and ensure financial pressure was not a barrier for all children who wanted to attend camp. Many thanks again to all those who contributed, we appreciate your generosity. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to any members of School Council. 

Kind regards,

Clare 

Voluntary parent payment reminder

A gentle reminder to any families that have not made their voluntary parent payments – it’s not too late to do so!! 

Within our school these voluntary contributions have allowed us to organise and coordinate the best possible programs outside of the traditional teaching and learning classroom structure. 

These financial contributions assist us with the purchasing of art, science and physical education equipment and resources, to purchase robotics resources such as the BeeBots and Spheros and invest in decodable books that support our whole school Science of Reading literacy approach. 

Cheers,

Clare
