Values Document:Bee—Sunday 6th October 1p.m until 5 p.m

School Council has decided to have a working bee on Sunday 6th October the day before

the students return to school on Monday 7th October. Hope you can come along and help.

A list of jobs and tools required was attached to the newsletter last week.

Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden

The work is really coming along at a cracking pace, the outside of the veranda is almost completed, the old vinyl flooring has been lifted, the plaster on the inside of the new wall has been completed and the plumbing and electrical work roughed in. The painter has been organised, the colours chosen for the walls, ceiling and windows. The kitchen cabinets should be installed in a couple of weeks. The front of the old building will be cleaned up, the drinking taps placed at the side of the building, the water tanks removed and as much of the old pipes etc removed. The outside area of this historic school building will also be repainted, e.g. windows, doors, finials and eaves, The garden area of this project will see the development of an Italian feel garden,

espaliered fruit trees, olive trees, herbs, tubs with lemon and lime trees, pizza oven (with

money donated from Dr. and Mrs. Hudson). Thank goodness for the creativity of Susie

who can envisage what needs to be carried out in this area.

Newsletter No. 6

Mr C—Grade F/1 Last week at home students collected 17 sticks for Maths and used these in various ways over the week. Elliot measured the sticks he had collected and also drew fantastic pictures of them. Kiera is pictured measuring the total length of the sticks she had collected. Levi sent in some great photos of spiders that he found for our Inquiry unit and is shown here with a blue tongue lizard. Lucy is pictured using the sticks she collected to help write some subtraction equations.

Thank you to ALL the students who got involved with Jump Rope for Heart! A huge thank you for the effort skipping and fundraising for the Jump Rope for Heart program in term 1. Together we raised an incredible $4,976.67 and this money will all go towards vital heart research and education programs. We’ve loved seeing so many smiling faces skipping in the playground and during sports lessons. Keep up the skipping for your own health and wellbeing and thanks again for the hard work!
