Parent Teacher Interviews

It's that time of year again!  Parent Teacher Interviews will be held from Tuesday 12th to Thursday 14th June.  If you haven't yet booked your time on the new online system please do so by THIS Friday as this week is the last week it is open.  (The details for this, along with the code and password, were posted a couple of weeks ago.)

Week 7

Congratulations to Two Maroon on a fantastic assembly on Friday, the children did really well!  After a busy week 6 with an excursion, St. Bernardine's Day, photos and assembly we will be focusing more on our units of work again.  On Tuesday morning the children will sit this term's Maths test.  They will also be completing assessment for Science, History and Religion so we suspect they will be quite tired by Friday!

This week is Two Maroon's turn to do prayer at daily morning assembly.

Today the Homework grid for Week's 7 and 8 went home.  You will find the basic spelling list under the Homework Page if the children have lost their list.


Hope you have a good week!

Week 6

Hi parents,

This week the children have a busy week ahead.....

On Tuesday this week all year 2 children will be walking over to the Greenbank RSL for an excursion as part of our History unit.  Please remember your child has their hat with them today.

On Wednesday our school is celebrating St Bernardines day.  FREE DRESS DAY with a gold coin donation.  This day will begin with a whole school mass in Siena hall and then a day of fun activities.  There are no formal lessons on this day.  The school will provide a sausage sizzle lunch for the children and an ice block.  Please pack a drink and any extra snacks your child may need during the day.

On Thursday we have our school photos.  Our class will be having their photos before the first break at about 10.15am.

On Friday we will be performing our assembly for the school. School assembly starts at 10.10am. Remember your child needs to wear a plain coloured tshirt for our assembly.  If your child is reading then they will have their reading with them to practise during the week.   All year 2 children will also be doing their Maths Exam today.

Please remember Parent Teacher Interviews are now to be booked online.  This eliminates all the paper used in sorting out the times etc.

Change of Assembly Date

Hi all,
Please be advised that there has been a change of date to our assembly.

 The NEW date is Friday 25th May 2012 at 10am. 

Apologises for any inconvenience, especially if you have rearranged work commitments and family life.  We still hope you can come at the amended date. 

The children are doing the story of Joseph and the Technicoloured Dreamcoat.  Please give your child a plain coloured t-shirt to wear on assembly. Please do NOT go and buy one if you don't have one...  If we know ahead of time we will provide one for your child - ( our own children have plenty! ) Some children will have other costumes but we have made them.  Keep watch for any more assembly clothes or prop notes.

Thanks for your patience.

Melissa and Felicity
