End of Year and Christmas

Fri, Dec 5th, 2025

This week Year 4 has been working tirelessly finishing off end of year tasks. The Christmas spirit has been evident all week with our Advent Candle and Jesus in a Manger Artworks. Thank you to all the incredibly generous families and children that have brought in presents for the family we have been assigned. Their Christmas morning will be incredible thanks to you. We are still running our Mini Vinnies Christmas Appeal and would love for you to continue bringing in non-perishable items. The Class that brings in the most items gets an extra 10 minutes of play. We are currently in the lead! 

We can’t believe the year is coming to an end. It has been a pleasure to witness the growth and successes of each student throughout the year. From all reports, the step-up morning in Year 5 was a hit. The children are ready to take on the challenges of Stage 3 learning and responsibility. We wish you all a safe, joyful and holy Christmas. How can I keep the educational fires burning??? Join the local library, play board games, Write a letter to a relative, play times tables rockstars, write the grocery list, plan an outing for the family, cook a meal for the family, and use a budget for Christmas shopping. Most of all, rest up and enjoy every minute spent with your family. 

Reminders: The library is now closed for borrowing. We ask for all students to have a look around the house to check for any overdue Library books that need to be returned - Thank you!

Homework: We had 15  students return their homework folders at the end of Week 8. We will continue to offer Maths revision sheets. Mr Holmes, Mrs Fitz/Mrs Faga, and Miss Sharp have Spelling revision for their groups, plus home readers are available to use.

The spelling words are located in the parent resource tab below.
