Footsteps Dance Presentation

It was great to see so many people in attendance at our dance presentation last Friday afternoon.

You could tell that the children really enjoyed the program and the opportunity to perform by the smiles on their faces.

Thank you to Hannah from Footsteps for the work she did with the children across the term. We hope to see her back next year.

Holy Week Celebrations: The Passion Story

Thank you to our Year 5/6 students for leading us all through the Passion Story... Events of Holy Week in a most reverent reenactment yesterday.

It was also nice to see some parents join with their child to follow the Holy Week story.

Easter Raffle

Our Easter Raffle will be drawn on Thursday! Thank you to all families for your donations and to those parents who attended to wrap the prizes. They look amazing!

Learning Conferences and Student Portfolios

We trust that you found the Learning Conferences informative and beneficial. At the Learning Conference, your child presented their Student Portfolio. The Portfolio is a snapshot of the work completed in Term 1.

Please take the time to celebrate with your child their achievements so far. View and discuss the wonderful pieces of work your child has produced and let them do the talking of what was involved with each piece and how they addressed the success criteria of the learning. You will need to pull pieces out of the plastic pockets to see the complete work and teacher feedback.

End of Term

A reminder that all students will finish at 1:00 pm on Thursday 1st April... the last day of Term 1.

School Closure Day

Please note in your diaries our next School Closure Day: Staff Professional Development Day is scheduled for Friday 28th May.

Have a wonderful week

God bless
