Report Cards and Portfolio Conferences--It was great to see everyone at the conferences. Please make sure to return the report card envelopes signed as soon as possible.
Shoe Box Donations--Thank-you for your donations. The school put together 20 Shoeboxes and they were picked up by the Paramedics on Tuesday last week.
Shops--Please ensure that your child is dressed appropriately to walk to Shops. The weather is changing and they will be expected to walk to shops no matter what the weather is.
Christmas Hamper Program will be running from Dec 14-17 this year. We will be providing more information as we get closer about how you can be involved. We are definitely looking for families to participate in delivering the hampers, especially on the Saturday.
