Principal’s Message A reminder that children are required to

wear full summer school uniform to school.

We understand that there are very few

school days left in the year and buying new

items may not be economical, however we

have some pre-owned clothing items availa-

ble, just ask at the office and they will try to

help you.

This week is NO DROWN TOWN WEEK.

The swim school has just finished and

teachers have commented on the great way

our students participated and the huge im-

provements they have made in their swim-

ming skills. Well done to those children who

took part and congratulations to the mums

and dads who saw it as a priority. The

swimming school causes a lot of disruption

to normal school routines, but it is well

worth it. Over 300 people lost their lives,

drowning in Australia over the past 12

months. I don’t wish for any of our children

to become one of these statistics. If your

child can’t swim, then they should be at-

tending swimming lessons as a priority.

The Fireworks committee have been busy

organising the 2017 Fireworks. They would

like to know if there are any families who

own their own businesses, or are in a posi-

tion of influence, to sponsor the Fireworks.

Every bit of help is greatly appreciated.

Last Thursday some children had the opportunity to

see the performance “Seussical The Musical”. It was a

fantastic day, the children were complemented on their

wonderful behaviour and got to meet some of the cast at

the end of the performance. Our very own Daina was in the

cast and we were extremely proud of her!

There will be another performance this week for the children

that attended the swimming scheme.

Teddy Bears Picnic

What a wonderful, yet windy, morning the children had for the Teddy Bears Picnic at school.

The children provided some delicious snacks for everyone to taste and brought their teddy bears and

favourite toys to help enjoy the morning.

Thank you to the parents who provided such a fantastic array of food for everyone to enjoy!

We are now taking bookings for term 1 2017, and have limited spots

for morning and after school lessons. The term dates are Monday,

30th January to Friday, 7th April. We also have limited spots for our

NeateAbility Club. (Swimming club for children with disabilities). If your

child has a disability don’t let them miss out on a skill for life.

There will be an intensive learn to swim program from Monday,

16th January to Friday, 20th January. The program will be run for

both school aged and pre school children aged between 3-5yrs. School

aged children $50 for the week ( 4group). Pre school children $75 for

the week (2 group).

We have recently installed an Ozone 1 pool purification system,

Which breaks down chloramines in the water, so your child will not get

red eyes or itchy skin. The system destroys irritants that cause

allergies, & eliminates odours & improves water clarity.

We are committed to provide a healthy

friendly environment for our students.
