The children will wear their sports uniform to school and change into weekend clothes (if they wish to) during lunch.

If you know your child will be absent on this date, please let me know as soon as possible so I can reallocate parts.

Shoe Box Gift

  Good afternoon parents, All the children in Year Two will soon participate in 'Operation Christmas Child' which is an initiative with the goal of packing shoeboxes full of little surprises to give to a child who may have never received a gift before. By participating in this our children will have a first-hand experience aimed at building the school value of compassion.  Your child will be grouped with three other children to contribute and pack the shoe box. The cost to send a shoe box will be  $2.50 per child .  We are asking you to encourage your child to do something extra at home to earn the money that is needed to buy the item to put into the provided shoe box. Please see below an example of the provided shoe box for Operation Christmas child: Y our child will bring home a note today which shows you what kind of items can be sent away in the shoebox. We are asking for all donations to be brought to school by  Friday 18th August (We...
