Principal's News
Dear Parents and Friends,
It was so lovely to see the smiling faces of our Foundation students as they headed back to school on Monday! They were so very excited - there were a few tears from the mums and dads though. The children enjoyed a lovely day of getting to know each other again, a teddy bears picnic and a belated celebration of their 100 days of school.
Today, we welcome back the 1/2 children - and how excited were they (and the parents too!!) I know they are just as excited to be coming back as the Foundation children. There were streamers, bubbles, disco music and dancing as the students enthusiastically returned to their classrooms.
See "Dates for your Diary" for full return to school schedule
Please be reassured that we are following all the Government Guidelines that are occurring to make sure your children are as safe as possible while at school. We have lots of access via doors and windows to allow natural air flow through the classes. When the ventilators arrive, they will be placed in areas that have no natural air flow eg the sick bay first and then the classrooms.
Face masks must be worn INDOORS by children in Years 3-6, and it is recommended that children in Foundation - Year 2 to wear a mask indoors as well.
Thank you to all the children who are wearing masks and wearing them correctly.

Summer Uniform and Hats
Students are to wear their correct summer uniform in Term 4. All Students must have a School Hat, so please check your child's hat is in a respectable condition and that it is clearly named. From Monday 25 October if your child does not have a hat they will not be able to play outside.
Yours in partnership
