Week 7 Term 3 2020

Dear parents, I hope you all enjoyed the extra long OLC weekend - it was a lovely break and gave us all time to recuperate after a big week including the sports carnival and open classrooms afternoon. Assembly This Friday is the big one! Our grand performance!  The assembly will start at 2.10pm but if any parents could pop in just before at about 1.45 straight after lunch to help us get dressed that would be wonderful.  Please send your child's costume to school in a clearly marked plastic bag/swimming bag so we can get changed into it straight after lunch.  Students will need to wear their normal sports uniform for the first part of the day.  I can't wait to see them all dressed up as their dads.  It was interesting to hear what clothes they wanted to wear and many were very keen to adorn some facial hair.  A few were a bit worried what they would do if their dad was bald or thinning - obviously really keen to play the full role!   There will be some students also with a micro

Dear Parents,  Just a few bits of information for tomorrow and next week:  Athletics Carnival Tomorrow is our annual athletics carnival, kicking off around 9.15. You will have received an email from admin with the schedule for the day.  Please also read below other information sent from admin earlier this morning in regards to the day.  I also asked the students to have a bit of a clean out of their school bags this evening as we take them down to the oval for the day to hold their jumpers, lunchboxes and water bottles - and clearly name everything especially food containers, jumpers and hats! Students can bring teddies decorated in team colours but they will be responsible for looking after them for the day.  Students can also have coloured hair/zinc but I ask if you could do this before school at home rather than outside the class.  I'm very excited to join in the fun and looking forward to a great day tomorrow!  Open Evening Tomorrow will also be our open evening.  The students

  Dear Parents,  Well here we are halfway through Term Three - time flies when you are having fun!  SEESAW  - This is a form of formal reporting that we are implementing over this semester to give you insight to your child's achievement more regularly rather than only the formal report that you will receive at the end of the year.   We now have nearly all families sign up and access their child's journal. Don't forget you can have both parents access your child's Seesaw account and that you can access directly with the Seesaw Family app on your phone, device or computer.  Please let me know  if you need assistance or would like to be emailed the direct link if there is any problems accessing your child's learning journal using the QR code. 1K Assembly -  our performance assembly will be on 3rd September in a fortnight's time and we will be celebrating our dads, grandfathers and special men in our lives as it lands just before Fathers Day and will be in lieu of a

Dear Parents,  Well here we go into Week 4! I hope you all had a relaxing weekend and managed to get out and about between the clouds and showers or just enjoyed some time at home with friends or family.  In 1K, we have a tradition to give each weekend a rating from 1-10 each Monday in class to and it is always so interesting to hear the individuality of each child's rating and their reasoning why! SEESAW - As per the information sent home a couple of weeks ago in an email from administration, we are now using the Seesaw platform school-wide to use to show you some of the activities that we are completing in class as well as providing insight and feedback to your child and yourselves about how they are going. This is a form of formal reporting that we are implementing over this semester to give you insight to your child's achievement more regularly rather than only the formal report that you will receive at the end of the year.   Over the past two weeks, y our child has brough
