A huge thank you to the teachers who have volunteered their mornings to provide this for the students. Next term, if you have a spare 30 minutes one morning and would like to assist in Breakfast club, please let me know. We would love to have you assist.

We have sourced some warm winter girls pants as part of the uniform. Next week in the middle spread of the

newsletter we will have photos of all uniform pieces available and their prices. We have been informed that the material for our Sports T-shirt has actually made it to Australia but is stuck on the docks in Sydney, however they are hopeful they will get the material soon and then our sports shirts will be available.

If your child is sick please keep them at home until their symptoms have cleared. If you have any tests done please

inform the school as to the results and remember to bring in your doctors medical certificates. Thank you for informing the school as to your child’s absences.

The teachers are busily finishing off your child’s reports for Semester 1. These will be sent home in week ten and

teachers will be available to answer any questions you may have about your child’s learning this term.
