The District Summer interschool sports event that our Year 5 & 6 will participate in is fast approaching … Day 1 on 19th August, and Day 2 on 27th August. In the event that the teacher strike goes ahead on the 19th August, or if one of the days is cancelled due to the weather, we will utilise the reserve day of September 14th. If any parents would like to assist with supervising and/or coaching your child’s sports team, can you please email Mr. Warren.
The District Athletics event is coming up on 14th August and it has been wonderful to see so many students attend the optional before school training sessions. We wish everyone involved the best of luck for this event!
I’m exciting to announce that our school has been invited to attend a VERY SPECIAL event at Government House of September 1st. Some very lucky Year 6 students will get to meet the Governor of Victoria, be taken on a tour of Government House, participate in a cricket match on the lawns of Government House, before enjoying a BBQ there. I can’t wait to hear about your day!
Lastly, the days in which our Year 5 & 6 students and grades will attend their surfing and water safety excursion have now been finalised:
5B & 6B: Thursday 19th November.
5C & 6A: Wednesday 25th November.
5A & 6C: Tuesday 1st December.
