The Penultimate Week

Kindergarten students enjoying a parent talk about Aboriginal background

Presentation Day

As we lead up to the end of year, our annual presentation day will be held from 9:15am on Tuesday 18 December in our school hall. Apart from the presentation of awards, we will be having some performances to break up the presenting of awards. Families are cordially invited to attend but we ask you to let us know if you are bringing a large contingent to the awards. After the event, volunteers who have helped at the school are invited to a volunteers morning tea. The volunteers morning tea will be held this year in the Aora Meeting Room close to the school oval and gate. All volunteers who help this year are welcome to attend. An EGM for P&C will be held after this to discuss the Canteen and other issues held over from the last P&C meeting.

Semester 2 Reports

Our teachers are putting the final touches to the Semester 2 reports. These reports are based on work completed in terms 3 and 4 of this year and report across the Key Learning Areas as well as Chinese. This semester we will be reporting about Geography rather than History. Teachers have attempted to provide for English and Mathematics an area of strength and an area for development as well as encouragement for how to help develop this area. The reports will be sent home in school bags on Thursday. They will also be emailed to parents and made available via the parent portal. The school follows closely the NSW Department of Education’s Policy standards detailed at:

Summer Sizzler

Many of the teachers on Friday night attended and enjoyed the fabulous Summer Sizzler event put on by the P&C. It was very enjoyable with lots of community engagement, great food, games and dance moves. Then there was the fun dunk which was well simply... Thank you to the P&C for such a great event. A letter from The P&C is included at the end of this newsletter.

Envirobank Collection

This Tuesday the school will be collecting its final Envirobank Collection for the week. Please ensure that you have your bags at the school by Tuesday morning.
