Dear Parents/Guardians,
Congratulations Riley!
A huge well done to Riley who was our only representative at the Regional swimming carnival last week. Riley finished 3rd. What an amazing effort.
Harmony Week - dress up day
Harmony week is about celebrating inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for all Australians, from the traditional custodians of the land to those who have come from many countries around the world.
We will be recognizing Harmony week next Friday 21st, by asking students to wear 'a touch of orange' (Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect), orwear traditional dress from their home country. We will also run activities in the classroom and all come together as a whole school at 1pm for food tasting and minor games. Please let your child's teacher or the office know if you do not want your child to take part in the food tastings.
