Good Morning Parents/Carers
Quirindi Zone PSSA Swimming Carnival
Congratulations to all the students who represented Werris Creek Public School at the Zone swimming carnival on Friday and thank you Mr Wilcox for your support and assistance on the day. It was a great day for everyone and all students did their best and exhibited great sportsmanship.
Congratulations to Arabella who will represent the Zone in Armidale in early March for the 50m freestyle event.
Asthma Plans
Asthma plans. If your son or daughter has been diagnosed by a medical practitioner with asthma they require an updated ASCIA plan with the appropriate medications available at school. Could you please attend to this as a matter of urgency. We have a number of students with Asthma listed on their enrolment forms however we don't have a plan or any medications for them.
Colour Run
Our colour run is fast approaching. White is the colour of the day! A rainbow of colour will be the end result. The P&C have kindly offered to cook a sausage sizzle for us before the colour run. I'm sure it will be a great day.
