BOOK FAIR

We are very excited in the library as next week is our annual Book Fair. The Book Fair allows children and parents/caregivers to purchase the types of items available through the Scholastic book club and take them home on the day! On Monday 6 November, children will preview the Book Fair and write a wish list. The Book Fair will then be open from Tuesday 7th – Friday 10th November. Parents and Caregivers can book a time to visit the Book Fair before and after school through TryBooking https://www.trybooking.com/CMUYJ. Children will be able to visit the Fair throughout the school day. This is a great fundraiser for our library and we look forward to seeing you there!

PE Week

In Week 5, we are celebrating PE week, which is a whole week dedicated to being happy, healthy and active! Select children will be heading out to compete for the Endeavour Cup (information to follow), we are running a whole school scavenger hunt, a PE/Sport Quiz, as well as some staff vs student games and health hustles throughout the week.

 

Each year, we reach out to families and businesses and ask for donations towards our prize packs for our winners throughout the week. Suggestions include: Sports equipment, fidgets, vouchers, fun stationery pencils/erasers.

 

Please get in touch with Miss Karly Bartlett at kbartlett@stpaulba.sa.edu.au if you would like to donate! Any donations will be most appreciated!

Plastic Bread Tag Collection

Please collect your plastic bread tags and deposit them in the jar in the front office.

1079 Life sells the bread tags to a company that transforms them into useful items. (Transmutation in Robe) 

The proceeds are used to make wheelchairs for disabled people in South Africa.  

So far 85 wheelchairs have been given to those in need.

St Paul Lutheran School App

The St Paul Lutheran SA app has all the contact information you need as a parent of St Paul. This app is different to the QKR! and Seesaw apps. This is what you will use to access the St Paul parent portal.  You can contact the school office to obtain your login and password.
