CLUBS start this week - tell your class!
Mini Vinnies write applications (for Year 4 students)
Family Welcome Night on Thursday 5.30-7.30
Specialist classes- remember your Sports uniform and runners
FITCLUB starts on Thursday before school- 7.45
Friday Assembly 2.45 in the MPR

What can we improve on this week:	Class	Actions
Lining up in line order when the bell rings	all	Listen for the music Stop playing and get a drink, use the bathroom and go to your line
When we move around the school, we ALWAYS walk safely - especially up and down the stairs	all	Safety is important for everyone and we all need to keep safe - the big stairs are tricky for little Preps so they need to be extra careful and go slow
Rubbish in the yard	all	We all want a clean quiet area and playground. Put your rubbish in the big bins outside- the bins with the RED lid

Suggestions from the SRC -

Icy poles everyday!

We need new Sand pit toys

Sport activities - borrow sports equipment from the sports shed and start up a game with your friends!

Safety issues from the SRC

The old bike racks near the bin area are not for playing - use the adventure playground because they are too low to use as gymnastics bar

Wet floor in the toilets - tell someone in the office or the teacher on yard duty

If at any time you would like to chat about Student Wellbeing at Trinity, or you have any questions or concerns about your child, please do not hesitate to see your child's teacher or myself.
