Oh deer, it's that time of year! 🎶 During Week 9, we are sleigh-ing our way into the festive spirit as we prepare for our Christmas Carols! This week in class, we’ll be wrapping up our rehearsals to ensure our performance is nothing short of a yule-tide delight! 🎄 We’ll be working hard to hit all the right notes – because no one wants to be on Santa’s falala-la-la-lame list! We can’t wait to see you there for a festive good time filled with music, joy, and plenty of ho-ho-harmony!

This tree-mendous event will take place on Thursday, the 12th of December, at 6pm on the basketball courts. We encourage the year 5 students to come dressed in attire inspired by the Irwins to pay tribute to our chosen carol - 12 days of Aussie Christmas. Other outfits, such as green and gold, festive shirts and santa hats are also welcomed!

We would like to thank all the families who have graciously donated to our Mini Vinnies Christmas Appeal. We will have a basket in the Year 5 classroom for the remainder of term 4 and are asking the students to bring in any non-perishable food items and personal hygiene products to add to our donation. 

Join us for Waste-Free Wednesday! 🌱 Every Wednesday, we challenge you to make a difference by creating as little waste as possible in your lunchbox! Please see the flyer in the parent resources section for more information.

We encourage children to exchange Christmas cards at this joyful time of the year.  Please refrain from including candy canes, chocolates, lollies or other treats with cards.  We thank you for your assistance.
