Thank you
Thank you to all the parents who made a time to attend the Parent teacher interviews. It was wonderful to see so many parents. I f you were unable to attend please contact your child's teacher to have a chat or make other arrangments.
A big thank you to our neighbours and members of the school community who continually ‘watch over’ the school during holiday periods. Your willingness to keep an eye on the school and report any incidents is appreciated.
Also, thank you to Glenn and Paul for preparing the courtyard for the works that was done over the holiday with Flexitec laying down rubber and making downball courts it has most certainly improved and makes the courtyard look amazing.
Kew Traffic School
On Friday 17th June the Prep and Grade 1 students caught a bus to Kew Traffic School to participate in range of road safety sessions. Students participated in an interactive education presentation followed by a guided walk around Kew Traffic School to discuss safety features and practice safety as a pedestrian. Children then got to practice safety as cyclists by riding around the track on a bike, following the direction of the road and road signs. The students loved exploring the little village and playing in the shops. The highlight of the day was definitely driving through the Eastlink Tunnel on the Eastern Freeway.
Colour Run
The Colour Run was held last term on the 20th June and the students staff and parents had a blast of a time. What a colourful day. Thank you to all the parents and staff who helped out making the event a success. A special thank you to Balloon Glamour for supplying the fantastic balloon arch.
