Reminders

Just a few reminders about all of the excursions and events coming up in the next few weeks of term…

This Thursday we have our annual Cross Country event for all students and on Friday our Year 6s will head to Waratah Technology Campus to participate in taster lessons – art, cooking, and metalwork (BBQ lunch included). Orders for our Yr 6 Graduation shirts need to be in by the end of the week.

Good luck to our Yr6 students sitting the Selective High School test in Week 7. We will be receiving a visit from our MiS Mathematician Dr Jarad on Wednesday 11th.

Week 8 is going to be very busy. We have a visiting performance on Wednesday 18th from Brainstorm Productions called the Protectors. On Thursday 19th the OC head off to the Newcastle Writers Festival to work with authors Kaz Delaney and Matt Ottley. The SRC are organising a Fun Day on Friday 20th to support and raise money for Camp Quality. Students can dress in mufti for a gold coin, purchase a pizza lunch and be a part of the Talent Show at recess.

In Week 9 we will be celebrating Harmony Day on Thursday 26th with a combined art project, shared lunch and class performances. Zone Cross Country, for qualifying students, will take place on Friday 27th.

Week 10, the final week of the term, will also be action-packed. We will have our Hall of Fame assembly on the Monday afternoon, with many students on track to achieving 5 mastery ribbons. Our Stage 3 excursion to State Parliament and the Australian Museum will be on Wednesday 1/4, departing at 8am. Thanks to the parents who have volunteered to come along. Our last day of the term, Thursday 2nd will be the Easter Hat Parade. After all this I’m sure we’ll all be ready for the Easter break!
