This year students in Kindergarten and Stage 1, will have the opportunity to make Easter Hats in their classroom. Our Easter Hat parade will take place on Thursday, 2 April. 

K-2 students will be provided with the base of the hat at school. Stage 1 will decorate their hats during week 10 with their peers and teachers. Classroom Teachers of Stage 1 will contact the class parents about opportunities for parents to come into the classroom to help with decorations. Kindergarten students will create their hats with their buddies.

Parents are asked to provide their children with decorations and materials that can easily attach to cardboard hats with PVA glue. This includes items like foam stickers, feathers, and decorative paper. Please see the example.

Students are requested to start bringing in these items from home, in preparation for decorating in Week 10.

Students in Stage 2 & 3 are more than welcome to create a hat at home. All students will have the opportunity to show their designs to the whole school community on the day of the parade.
