Filming Last week we had the film crew and Department of Education representatives at school to film our Live Life Well at School segment. Special thanks to all students and parents involved in the production and to Miss Simcoe for coordinating the days. Although the weather wasn’t favourable at the start of Thursday we did manage to get through the schedule. Gold Morning tea Our Gold Morning tea will be held on December 6. Please make sure that all RSVPs are in as soon as possible. To support our Live Life Well at School ethos we are asking that candy canes not be given out at school. Please save this for the weekend and after school when catching up with friends.

Office News… COOKING FEES & WORKBOOK FEES:

Thank you to those families who have paid the subject and voluntary school contributions for 2018. At the start of the year all students were issued with a Soundwaves Spelling Book or, in Kindergarten, a Handwriting workbook, and all students have participated in cooking, and eaten what they have cooked once a term. If you have not paid these fees could you please do so by the end of the year so we can run these worthwhile programs again next year.
