Holiday Learning Plans

If you are planning a holiday within the school term, your child's teacher will provide an Absent Learning Plan, so they can continue with their learning, and not fall behind. Please contact your child's teacher and the school office with any holiday dates so that plans can be organised before you head off.

Should you have any questions please contact your class teacher

Hot Chocolate Lucky Dip Spinner

Keep an eye out for a compass notification for our next hot chocolate date. Bring along $1 to enjoy a warm chocolaty drink. If you purchase a hot chocolate your name goes into the Lucky Dip Spinner, if your name is drawn out at assembly you will win a prize like these two happy recipients.

Breakfast Club

What another fantastic few weeks in Breakfast Club this term!

We have had so many students visit us in the mornings for delicious toasties, cereals and milos to help kick start their learning day! It’s also been wonderful to be inundated with so many students eager to volunteer their time to help make Breakfast Club an amazing experience for all!

If your child is keen to be a Breakfast Club helper, they are welcome to see Mrs Burns or Mrs Marslen to join our growing roster of amazing volunteers.

Helper of the Week awards!

This week’s Helper of the Week award has been presented to Finn Beagley and Charlotte Lancaster.

They have been wonderful helpers many mornings during our busy week, assisting with bringing in the dirty dishes tub, learning how to stack the dishwasher and even serving toast to our school community! It’s been wonderful watching them grow in confidence when attending our Breakfast Club program each morning!

Congratulations !

Last week our helper of the week went to Maddie Beagley, Jondy Keay & Kellie Jennings.

Due to our generous donations, Breakfast Club has been able to support many families this term through the provision of Care Packages. Our Traf Pantry (found in the Gym Foyer), continues to be stocked with many excellent products, available to anyone - and they’re free!
