From the Principal

Welcome back to Week 7, a short week for students and staff, although school staff were still working on Tuesday. The LSO staff were here at school with myself, and the classroom teachers were in the Western Zone of MACS at a Professional Learning Day all about Evidence Based Teaching of Writing.
Last week our 3/4 students had a wonderful Camp at Sovereign Hill. Thanks to the staff for making the camp possible. A big well done to the students who did an amazing job. Some more photos of camp will be shared in the next edition of the newsletter.
It is hard to believe the end of Term 1 is only a few short weeks away. Term 1 will finish on Friday, April 4th and students will return back to school on Tuesday 22nd of April.

Just a note for students and families, Cubeez are welcome to come to school so students can show their friends. There is to be no trading or swapping at school. It is not the responsiliby of the school or teachers to monitor this at school. Parents need to have a conversation with their child/ren if they are bringing these items to school.
