Principal's Report
Dear Parents,
It is hard to believe that we are already in Week 8 of Term 4. The weeks are certainly flying by! Semester Two reports will come home tomorrow. Parent/Teacher Meetings will be offered in Week 9 for those parents requesting a meeting for any academic reasons or any other reason. Please remember these interviews are optional.
Last week, Year 6 had a wonderful time at camp and it was exciting to be able to be together as their final weeks of Primary School come to a close. The students will have many lasting memories of the fun they shared on this special trip away. Special thanks to Mrs Wilson and Mrs Hughes for looking after Year 6 for the 3 days of camp.
Year 3/4/5 also enjoyed a wonderful day in Canberra at the National Zoo and Aquarium as well as a stop at Cockington Green. Thank you to Mrs Flanagan and Mr Ferguson for organising such a great excursion that was enjoyed by all.
Work on our new turfed area is ramping up this week with the laying of the concrete surface this morning. The students have thoroughly enjoyed watching the activity of the machinery as the new play area takes place. Please remember First Ave is closed to all traffic today and the buses will drop off and pick up in Homer Street.
Our 2020 Award day is set to take place next Friday the 11th December commencing at 9.00am. Could parents please send back the confirmation note with the name of the two adults attending by THIS Wednesday 2nd December. At this stage only ½ of our families have indicated they will be attending. If you could please email the office to confirm your attendance if you have misplaced the original note.
Plans for 2021 are underway with decisions being made, in regard to class structures and teachers. As soon as they are finalised, we will be sharing them with our parent community.
This Friday staff will be undertaking Professional Learning involving the new RE curriculum led by Bernadette Scott from CE. The implementation of the new RE curriculum will be one of our focus areas in 2021. Please remember this is a PUPIL FREE DAY.
As we enter the Advent Season, we pray that God blessings will be with us each day as we await the birth of the baby Jesus.
