Casual Dress Day for World Environment Day and World Oceans Day
On Thursday 6th June we will have a Casual Dress Day.
This will be a combined celebration of World Environment Day and World Oceans Day, to celebrate everything that we do at Beaumaris Primary and in our community to make our world a better place.
We ask for children to please bring along a gold coin donation. Funds raised will go towards our Sustainability and Kitchen Garden projects for the remainder of the year, including our already much loved new chickens.
Students are able to wear casual dress, or they may even like to dress up in line with the theme of the day. If students would like to dress up, they may be inspired by not only our oceans, but everything we do to look after our environment.

Scholastic Book Club Issue 4 is out now. Orders for this issue are due Friday, the 14th June.
