Pyjama's For Playground Fundraiser
On Thursday 10/9 students and adults can wear their PJs/Onsies to raise funds towards the upgrade for our Oval playground area which will be an ongoing fundraiser over the next 12 months.
A group of Year 3/ 4 students have taken the lead to let students and staff know of this fundraiser by creating flyers for our Pyjama’s for Playground Fundraiser.
This will be a Gold Coin Donation to participate on the day.
Look forward to seeing many students and adults in their comfy Pjs/Onesies – but hopefully awake and ready for learning.
Sally Slattery, Principal

Class Placement Request Form
If you have things you would like the school to consider regarding your child’s class placement for 2021 please complete the form that was sent home last week. If you have misplaced your copy, copies are available from Lee in the front office.
Requests are due back by Wednesday 9/9 – send to Lee in the front office or via your child’s class teacher.
We request that you do not make specific teacher requests as we will not consider them as part of our school placement considerations in placing your child.
