Father's Day

What a fantastic turnout from our fabulous fathers, dads, grandads and poppys.  Thanks for making the time to come and check out the Foundation environment and what we do.  It was lovely to see smiles all around! We hope you all had an enjoyable Sunday with your loved ones.  Thanks again to the staff support, Jenny, Rhonda, Sabby and Daniel x2!

Tuesday Tech Time

Although we use digital technology throughout our learning tasks, every Tuesday we have been using the class set of laptops to work on skills and developing knowledge around how to safely log on and locate programs.  

This term we have practised logging on, locating Microsoft Word and typing words and sentences.  We have developed our formatting skills with things such as changing font size, style and colour.  Our students look forward to this every week! It's so good to see their skill development and confidence grow! Our little future tech experts!

Planning ahead

After the planning day this week, the calendar is full up already for our Term 4 activities.  We do have an excursion booked for the first week of December to Mornington Beach.  This is to tie in with our Geography unit and also a nice celebration day for the year we've had.  I welcome parent helpers  for the day.  The bus has plenty of spare seats!  Please ensure you receive the levy notice with the payment form, which will come home next week.

I am actually taking Long Service Leave in the first week of Term 4.  I will be away from the 6th October for 2 weeks and return in week 3.  Miss Shannen May will be taking the class, who the students are familar with.  

Farewell Chloe S

Sadly Chloe S is leaving to head to a new school.  We thank her for all of the lovely memories she has made with us in 2016 and wish her the very best!!  We are having a SECRET class morning tea for her on the last Friday.  I've only sent notices home to half of the class for some morning tea.  Please don't worry if you haven't got this notice as I just allocated notices to every second student.  We will be having this at 10.30am.  Good luck Chloe!!! xx

Happy Holidays!

Bring on the fine weather and let's get busy outdoors! Hope you enjoy a well earned rest!  Look forward to seeing our lovely faces in week 1 next term!
