Week 8 Term 4 2016

White Ribbon Day

Last Friday we celebrated White Ribbon Day.

We focused on ‘Respectful Relationships’.

Stage 3 students had a visit from Richmond

HS, we had a mufti day and we also

participated in some fantastic peer support

activities which incorporated activities on

child safety from the Daniel Morcombe

Foundation.

Stage 3 Camp

Next week will be the Stage 3 camp. Our stage 3 students have been

looking forward to this event all year. Thank you to all the parents for

supporting your children to go to this great experience. It will hold

life long memories.

Kurt Fearnley

We have been extremely lucky and have managed to have Kurt

Fearnley, 5 time Para Olympian attend our Years 1-6 Celebration of

Learning Assembly. We are very excited about having him at our

school and presenting some awards.

Trees

The trees in our car park are being removed the week before

Christmas. We are very aware that it will drastically change our

landscape. We are already planning to establish new gardens and

landscaping as part of our Aboriginal and Environmental programs in

2017.

Gardens

Please be mindful of our beautiful gardens and keep your little ones

out of them. Many of our blooming agapanthus plants have been

broken off. Thank you in advance for your co-operation.

Chess

Congratulations to our

amazing Chess team for

coming 6th in the NSW

Championships on the

weekend. Ryan won every

game, achieving the highest

overall score. Jasmine and

Zac played extremely well

too. Thanks again to Gary Lane for all his coaching expertise.

Not long to go now!
