Ms Kerrie Neophytou
A Special Thank You
Well done to all! It has been a very busy and hectic term and we all deserve a wonderful break. We have all battled a long and cold winter and are looking forward to spring weather and the time to rest.
Fairview Concert
The Fairview Concert was an engaging opportunity for Fairview to showcase their creativity and love of the Performing Arts. The concert was colourful, creative and very exciting. Each class worked as a team to share their talents and interest in forming a delightful story to share. The Performing Arts is a wonderful medium of expression and the opportunity to communicate without boundaries. The children’s view of their world is perfect, full of fun and very innocent. Their excitement in sharing their story was evident with beaming faces and joy to perform on stage.
We thank Ms Beth Thomson for her amazing organisation, assistance and inspiration, the Fairview Homeroom teachers for their wonderful work and commitment; and the children for their enthusiasm and excitement. Also we appreciate the support and guidance received from Ms Stephanie Pace, Mr Tom Thorneycroft, Mr Michael Cooper and the secondary school student band.
Wellbeing Week
The first week of next term is Wellbeing Week with lots of activities planned right across the College to highlight the many ways we can assist both our mental and physical health and look after each other. In celebration of Wellbeing Week the following activities have been organised for Fairview.
- Wednesday 10 October, the children will be having a Wellbeing Picnic from 11.00am to 11.20am on the area in front of the Administration building (juicy juicy green grass). The children are encouraged to bring along a teddy bear. We do not permit sharing of food with other children, due to allergies and anaphylactic reactions.
- Thursday 11 October, we are inviting grandparents and special friends to visit the classroom for some joint activities from 9.00am to 10.00am. To be respectful and inclusive if a child’s grandparent or special friend cannot attend, an aunt or uncle are very welcome.
Please note all guests during this week must sign in and out at College Reception, before participating in any activities.
