Term 2  Week 10 

Wednesday 28th June 2023

It is hard to believe that we are already at the end of Term 2!

Students mid -year reports were sent home yesterday with your child/ren.  If you would like to discuss your child/rens progress, please make an appointment to see your child’s teacher next term.

Tomorrow some of the year 5-6 children are off to the Crowley Cup competition in Stratford.  All welcome. Rugby at Page St field, netball at the courts and hockey at the turf. First games at 10am for all three teams. We wish them good luck with their games and look foward to hearing how they get on.

Friday at 9.00am there is the  “Learner of the Term” assembly and Friday afternoon is “Move your Butt” family fun starting with a Sausage and Bread for lunch (thank you to the PTA for the donation) from 12.30pm, and then from 1.30pm – 3pm, activities for the students and anyone who wants to join in.  Thank you to Peter and Maree Edgecombe who have organsied the activities for this afternoon. As this is to support the “Move your Butt” campaign, a Gold Coin donation towards this cause would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

That will conclude Term 2.  Thank you to parents who have helped with coaching, transport to and from events, or have supported the school in any other way during the past term.

We would like to wish everyone a safe and happy holiday and we look forward to seeing you back here for Term 3 which begins Monday 17th July 2023.
