A Message from the Principal
Welcome back to Term 4 and our final four weeks of Remote Learning before all students resume on site together on Friday 5 November, which is only a month away. I hope that you had a wondreful holiday and enjoyed many outdoor adventures. The Grand Final was certainly a great celebration for all Melbournians and especially for all the Demon's supporters. Jenny and Deirdre are very excited for their Premiership Team.
Congratulations to the Dinsdale family on the safe arrival of their baby girl, Emma Grace, a little sister to Daniel (1/2) and his brother Joshua.
Before and After School Care
Before and After School Care will relocate this Term to the new STEM room, while the Hall renovations get underway. Parents will be able to access this room from the front of the school, via the door on the left of the main entrance.
St John's Chickens
The chickens were very pampered today and enjoyed the attention from students onsite. We would love to hear your suggestions for names so please send me an email with any ideas and we will put them to a vote with the Sustainability team.

Lego Club
I had fun running the Lego Club online today.
I gave the students a challenge to create some new equipment for our school playground. They were all very creative with their ideas. Don't forget to join in next Monday at 2pm.
Have a wonderful week!
