A note from Kirrily
Can't believe term 1 is already coming to an end! It's been so jam packed with fun, hard to believe swimming week was only 8 weeks ago!
I wanted to let everyone know about The Hutt Community Centre in Aldgate and the ways they can support anyone in need and the ways they have already supported us and our families. The Hutt community Centre offers a range of services. Some I think could be especially helpful are the homework clubs, food pantry, dance/fitness classes, financial wellbeing support, computer training, the Book Shed, plus so many additional activities throughout the week for individuals or families. There are also many ways you can volunteer if you're looking at getting involved. We want to thank them for the financial assistance they have given us to assist some families in our school, it has been a load off for many!
Please access their website for more information or contact me! https://www.thehut.org.au/about-us/
I hope you all have an amazing last week to the term and school holiday period!

School drop-offs and pick-ups
It’s great to see lots of people using the road with care with the growing school and kindy community.
Please be careful entering from Swamp Road, only enter on the left-hand side of the ticket entry box, and travel in an anticlockwise direction around the oval.
In the next few weeks, temporary bollards will be put in place on the right hand side at school drop off time as a reminder.
Please also remember that access to the school and kindergarten for drop off and pick up is one way from Swamp Rd, with exit onto Greenhill Rd or continuing anticlockwise and exiting again onto Swamp Rd.
Please don’t access the school or kindy from Greenhill Rd.
It is much safer for everyone to have traffic flowing one way, so while we know it might be inconvenient for some families, it’s important to the community.
We are also pleased to advise we are also working with the Council and the Department on an upgrade of the road, so hopefully it won’t be so bumpy for much longer.
