End of Year Envelopes
Next Thursday, 25 November is the due date for the return of forms which are coming home in a large yellow envelope with your child today.
It greatly assists our preparation for 2022, if we have these forms back promptly. Thank you.
Welcome Party 2022
It's time to begin thinking about our Welcome Party for 2022! This event is run each year by a team of generous parents, and we require more people to join the team. If you would like to help out in delivering a great event for our school community, please send me an email (here).

Thanking Volunteers
Next Friday, 26 November we will hold our annual event to celebrate the generous work and support of volunteers within our community.
This year we will be holding a breakfast in the church café from 8.15am to 9.00am.
To comply with COVID regulations, please register your attendance here, stating any dietary requirements.
Class Carer News
Class Carers are always looking for ways to encourage and bless school families and the teaching staff in our school.
For quite some time, one aspect of this has been arranging a gift at the end of the year for their class teacher and LSO.
Instead of each Class Carer preparing class notes asking for donations to go toward class gifts of appreciation, a whole school Class Carer note will accompany this edition of WINGS. You can contribute either via Qkr! (Class Carer Gift Donation) or with a cash payment to Sharon in the front office. All money will be collected and then distributed evenly to our Class Carers so they can purchase a gift for our valued class teachers and LSOs.
For more information, please read your Class Carer Christmas note.

Growing Faith at Home
This week’s GFH title is ‘Jesus is the King of Kings’. What thoughts come to mind when you hear the title king or queen?
The Caring Conversation key offers some ideas to talk over with your family. ‘What would you do if you were a king of queen for a day? What sort of a king is Jesus? When and how does he reign? We focus a lot on how Jesus is our Saviour, which is very important, but he is more than just that.
Have a wonderful week everyone!

Please bring weather appropriate clothes as well as snacks and a cuppa. Once again, access will be through the oval entrance gates at the end of the car park. Look forward to seeing you there!
