School Swimming Carnival

Monday 26 February

Aquanation

Ringwood

The swimming carnival is compulsory for all Year 7 students to attend.

Students in Year 8, only competitors will attend, all other Year 8 students are required at school to attend normal timetabled classes.

Students must wear their school PE uniform or house colours to the carnival (avoid application of coloured zinc until arriving at the venue).

Students should ensure that if they are competing they bring appropriate clothing to compete in.

A canteen will likely be available on the day, however we cannot guarantee that these services will be available. Students should bring recess and lunch as well as a water bottle.

Parents are encouraged to attend the event from 10 am to 1.30 pm.

Important information that will help students Monday morning;

Year 7 and 8 students need to attend Home Group as per usual
Home Group teachers will then send students to meet at the Junior School Deck

We want your news!

If there is anything that happens in your life outside of school, please let us know, as we would like to celebrate your achievements with you.

For example, sporting achievements, musical successes… anything!

Year 7 Immunisations

A reminder to parents and guardians, completed immunisation forms must be returned to the Junior School Office TODAY, Friday 23 February.

Getting It Right

The Year 8s participated in the Getting it Right program in Week 4, which served to remind students of the Lilydale High School Code of Conduct.

Students so far in 2018 have proved to have started really well and with the right attitude to learn. Uniforms look lovely and the correct resources are being taken to class.

Thank you to the parents who attended the Year 8 morning tea. We look forward to a year of collaborative, supportive and positive relationships with both students and families.
