Dear Families,

As always, there is always something magical about the return to school after the holidays. Watching the children's faces light up as they see the staff and their friends is just so lovely.

Many thanks to those families who attended our Real Schools Parent night. Those who attended got a lot of helpful hints from Trish and got to hear what we are working on at school.

Keep an eye out for the following.:

Shortly I will be advertising Volunteer Information sessions. These are compulsory for all helpers around the school and form part of our Child Safe Policy. Those who completed this session last year will soon receive an email for them to complete a review.

We will also be releasing a survey to families soon, asking you what skills, talents, interests etc you have and would love to share with our school community. Do you have an interest in fundraising, organising events for the children, fixing and mending, gardening etc? How might you like to be involved in understanding your children's learning more?

Please ensure you have booked a time for a Student Led Conference. Taking the time to listen to your child talk about their learning is an incredible opportunity. We look forward to seeing you all.

Sandpit Toys:

We would love for you to check around home to see if you have anything that might be appropriate for sandpit play. The sandpit is such a popular play place and we certainly go through the toys.

Wishing everyone a wonderful term ahead.

Louise
