Welcome Back

Welcome back to term 3.
We have lots of things on this term with year 5/6 camp, Life Ed (Harold) coming to visit, the dental van will be here, and of course lots of learning.
We will be starting afternoon activities later in the term.  This term we will be focusing on arts as part of our prep for the end of year concert.
It will be a fun and exciting term, and will fly past with only 9 weeks until the next holiday.

End of term and Farewell Miss A

What a busy term it has been.  The kids (as usual) have done a great amount of work.  It is always a busy time at the end of term as teachers check up on how the students have gone with their learning, and great to see how many have made great progress!  Keep up the great work!

A big thanks to all the parents who have helped make this term awesome!  We've had great support with coaches for winter sport and parent helps and fundraising etc etc.  We are a very lucky school to have so many parents who are able to help our students out.

Farewell to Miss A.  We all appreciate your wonderful work with the students.  Best wishes for your future adventures. I'm sure we will see you again!

I hope all the children and their families have a wonderful winter break.
See you all on Monday July 29th!
