Just a reminder that the CFA excursion notices for the grade one and two students are due tomorrow (Friday the 22nd). If you need another notice please see the office.

Regards,

The 1/2 team.

Last week the junior grades joined Miss Ireland in Indonesian to learn about Indonesian food. Students were taught about popular dishes in Indonesia with Miss Ireland bringing in some yummy curries, snacks and Nasi goreng for students to admire. Students then joined in on making and tasting traditional Javanese banana pancakes! YUM!

Due to the inconsistency of the weather and number of students walking, the teachers will not be walking to school for the rest of Term Two. We will continue when the weather gets better in Term Three, however we still encourage parents and students to use our 3 safety drop off zones to walk to school.

Thank you

The SRC are currently running a fundraiser to raise items for children in need.  It is titled ‘Shoebox For Kids’ and each year level has been asked to bring along different items that children might require.  All items will be donated to the charity “Mums Supporting Families in Need”.

Prep: small toy car, teddy or a little book

Year 1: undies for either boy or girl; any size

Year 2: socks

Year 3: hair ties or clips

Year 4: hair brush or hair wax

Year 5: tooth brush

Year 6: tooth paste

We request all items to be new and of course, you do not need to spend a great amount, anything would be appreciated.

All items are to be delivered to Mrs Humphries room (room 29 on the oval) by June 26^th.

On the 19th of May, it is the 18th year for the National Walk Safely to School Day (WSTDS). We will be leaving from O’Neil road and heading to school approximately 8:30am. We would love to see as many students possible attending this walk.

The objectives of WSTSD are:
• To encourage parents and carers to walk to school with primary school age children and reinforce safe pedestrian behaviour.
• To promote the health benefits of walking and help create regular walking habits at an early age.
• To ensure that children up to 10 years old hold an adult’s hand when crossing the road.
• To help children develop the vital road-crossing skills they will need as they become mature pedestrians.
• To reduce the car dependency habits that are being created at an early age and which will be difficult to change as children become adults.
• To promote the use of Public Transport.
• To reduce the level of air pollution created by motor vehicles.
• To reduce the level of traffic congestion.

Thank you for your support.

Dear Parents,

Please be aware there are road works in Lyle Avenue this morning due to NBN installation. Traffic will be more congested so please consider parking away from school and walking down.

Thank you

There will be no assembly today due to house meetings.

There were no official WoW Lunchbox winners this week due to ANZAC day falling on Tuesday. However, a fantastic lunchbox was spotted in 1KF that we thought was worthy of a mention. Well done, Zaiden!

Congratulations to the WoW Lunchbox winners for week 1! It was a great start to the term with so many terrific lunchboxes.
