Boys & Girls Softball

Our boys and girls softball teams went to Tamworth

today to play against Manilla.

A hard fought battle was had with both games.

Congratulations to the girls who have advanced to

the next round after defeating Manilla 21-5. The

boys played very well but lost their game 22-8.

All children displayed great sportsmanship and

represented their school with pride.

Years 4-6 went to the Science & Engineering Chal-

lenge in Tamworth . We all got arm bands to tell

you what groups you were in. For the making of the

bridge challenge, you could only use 4m of tape, 6

paddle pop sticks, 2 A3 pieces of paper and a small

piece of cardboard. There were 4 of us in my group

and we made the strongest bridge on the day.

We all had fun and learnt a lot doing the challenges.

Photography with Mrs Filby

In the lead up to the Currabubula Art Show Mrs Filby

has kindly offered to teach our students basic

photography technique in lessons on Tuesday the

3rd at 12 - 1:00pm and Monday the 9th of April,

from 12:45pm onwards. In the second session

students will be walking out of the school grounds to

take photographs. Please ensure you have returned

a general permission (local excursions note) so your

child is able to participate in this activity. Students

are welcome to bring their own camera to school to

take photographs, or use school iPads.

High School Expressions of Interest

Please return to the school as soon as possible,

indicating which High School year 6 students will be

attending in 2019.

Mini Maker Market Stall

Our students will be running a 'Mini Makers' stall at

the Currabubula Boutique Markets on the 6th of

May. Students are welcome to collect, make and sell

their own handicrafts to raise money for the school

P&C (and possibly some profit for themselves). If

you wish to discuss any ideas for our 'Mini Makers'

stall, please contact the school.
