PARENTS & FRIENDS CLUB NEWS

THIS SUNDAY ~ 6th December

We are running a Cake and Craft stall at this

Sunday’s Farmers Market. If you are able to

assist, please let Nicole know as soon as

possible.

We ask families to make a contribution to the

cake stall or to the Christmas raffle instead of

both.

If you are donating to the Christmas raffle we

ask if those items could please be dropped at

school as soon as possible, as we plan on selling

raffle tickets at the market and we’d love to

have at least one prize on “show”.

Plates to place baked items onto are included

with this newsletter. Please list ingredients

used in baked items on sticker included with

plate. No cream or perishable ingredients,

please. Items for the cake stall are to be

brought to school on Friday or dropped at the

market on Sunday morning from 9:00am.

From the desk of the Acting Principal.... Hai Semua! (Hi everyone)

Canberra Camp: The students who went on camp have all come back with lots of great stories and learning. They represented the school amazingly well displaying all the school values. The students will be doing some follow up activities and will be sharing their experiences with us at Assembly on Friday. Thank you to Emma and Lindy for taking the students on camp.

Skipping: The students have voted on the physical activity they will participate in before school, recess and lunchtime. They have decided on skipping. Could all families please check that your child/ren have their rope ready to begin skipping tomorrow. Water bottles: Summer is upon us and the weather is certainly heating up. Could you please make sure that you are sending a drink bottle to school each day so that the students can be encouraged to be sipping water throughout the day. School Policies: The Homework and Assembly Policies are available for review from the office. Please see

Nicole.

End of Year Concert & Awards Night: A reminder that this night is being held next Thursday, 10th December at

the Seymour Performing Arts Centre starting at 6:30pm.

2016 Booklists: Booklists for 2016 are attached to this newsletter for each family. If you have any queries, please

see Nicole.

Have a great week…… Catherine Hurst

What a fantastic time our Grade 4/5/6 students had in Canberra last week along with Tooborac PS and Willowmavin PS. The weary campers arrived back on Friday just before 4:00pm full of stories of their week’s adventures. Here are a few phots from the week. A huge thank you to Emma Vandenhoven and Lindy Plenty who accompanied the students.
