Information Book

We are currently reviewing and updating the school's information book which is given to new families when they are enrolling at our school.
It would be great to hear from any of the newer parents about what was useful and what was missing.

If you have any suggestions on information we need to add to help new families understand our school please let us know.

Read and Feed / Campbell Live

Students enjoyed the read and feed today where they listened to Fantastic Mr Fox, munched carrots from the school garden and juicy apples! $50 was raised to contribute towards the KidsCan Trust's efforts to help provide lunches to hungry children.

Campbell Live's cameras couldn't make it out, but our photo should be shown as we should be on the list of supporters. 

Thanks for supporting this cause and all your help with school events this term.  Enjoy the break and have lots of fun with your children.

Beauty is a Beast

Thanks to Ross School for inviting us to your dress rehearsal.  Our students really enjoyed the story.  We were really impressed with all the work you put into your show.  We hope you had fun presenting it to your parents and community. J

Art work

Check out some of the art we have been doing in the Hoiho Class :)

Mahoe Prize day

The Hoiho House enjoyed a creative morning today.  Thanks to Andrew Nolan, Katrina Simpson and Danielle Elcock for coming in and helping out! The kids have made some wonderful creations.  Once they are dry they'll be fired and ready for painting :)

Check out our future Olympians

 Here are just a few of the great Olympic outfits worn on Friday.  A great effort given such short notice!

Over $90 was raised, all going towards new library books.

Thanks for all your support (again).

Thanks for all the hard work

Thanks everyone for making the time to come in for our Parent/Teacher interviews.  I hope you found them helpful in understanding how your children are going at school. 

Remember if you have any worries, concerns, or questions at any point in the year, you are more than welcome to call in and make a time to discuss these with your child's teacher.

The students have been making a great effort in their learning and should be proud of their achievements.  Learning isn't always easy but hard work always pays off in the end.

Stunning Ski Trip!

Well done to all our great skiers!  We received an email from the staff at Porters to let us know..."the kids behaved impeccably " - Great feed back :)
If you have some good pictures from the day, please email them in so we can share them with the children.

A HUGE thanks to all the parents who drove the children to the slopes.
