From the Principal

Path Grand Opening and Walk2School Day

Wednesday morning was a fantastic start to the day with all our students

and staff walking

along the new pathway

to school.

A big thank you to the

Bass Shire Coast for

supporting this project

and the ‘healthy com-

munities body’. The

council will require a

collection of data to

complete the project

and a small survey will

be in the next newslet-

ter. We would appreci-

ate everyone partici-

pating in this survey to ensure the support for stage 2 of the path is

passed.

Thanks to the Bass Coast Shire Council for putting on breakfast and

The Lollipop Lady for joining us for the walk.

We are hoping to continue our walk to school monthly and have

attached a permission form for parents to sign.

This form will cover your child for the remainder of the year and get us

all active!

Getting to school on time

Congratulations to everyone for working hard towards getting to school

on time. We have had a HUGE improvement with students getting to

school on time and being ready to learn.

Keep up the great work.

Have a great week everyone,

Leanne
