Hello, from Carolyn.

Hello everyone, 

The winter season of coughs and colds is well and truly upon us. A reminder to please keep unwell children at home where they can rest and get better. We have had to make a number of phone calls this week for children to be collected as they are not well.

We are doing our best to minimise the spread of colds by reminding our students to wash and sanitise their hands often, and we have the air purifiers on and windows/doors open to let fresh air in when possible. 

Pack healthy food for school!

We encourage all our students and families to pack healthy foods to bring to school. This term there have been increasing numbers of students bringing lollies, chewing gun and chocolate in their lunchboxes- keep these items for after school and/or weekend treats, they shouldn't be coming to school as everyday lunch items.

A big focus of our gardening program is helping our students connect with healthy foods by growing and then eating the foods. Our Parents and Friends page always has a delicious recipe to try, that is also healthy, and you can find lots of great lunchbox ideas here. 

Reminder-Student free day next Wednesday 4 June.

A reminder that we have a Student free day next Wednesday 4th June.

Add this date to your calendars!

In Term 3, we have a student free day on Thursday 21 August.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

warm regards,

Carolyn.
