'Seeing the world through a different lens.'

Hey Fabulous Fatima Families,

On the holidays students  were asked to pick up 3 pieces of rubbish at the beach to help our coastal environment and keep our bay clean.  We now have 5 baby dolphins swimming with Violet's pod so less rubbish will help to keep them healthy.

Lots of students reported picking up rubbish, however, to enter the competition for a Violet money box and sticker you also have to send a photo to Mrs. Heggen.  This week's winner is Chloe.  She went above and beyond three bits of rubbish.

Violet and her dolphin friends thank Chloe and all of the other students who helped to keep our bay beautiful. We are a great sustainable community.  Well done Fatima families!
