Dear Parents,

                     A BIG thank you to all the parents and students that brought along the delicious food on Friday. We had a great day where we learnt a lot and ate even more! A recipe book will need to be collected! Here's hoping that all future events are this well supported.
Thanks Carina and Leighton

Dear Parents,

Parents can you please remind students that going off premises at anytime without signing out is a very dangerous idea. In case of a fire alarm or any other emergency it is crucial we know where students are at all times. There have been a number of students leaving the school at lunch time which can cause a risk for many people.

Dear Parents,

Just a heads up! The MYP3's are keen to get some fundraising going in the next few months. This money will be going towards a class trip of some sort. The help we could use from parents will vary from donating items, cooking, selling or just helping set things up. None of this is mandatory by any means but all help would be greatly appreciated. 

Students were given a hard copy yesterday (Mon 24th) about a potential fundraiser on Sunday the 30th from 0800-1400. The students are running a loppis so any donation of clothes or time on the day would be greatly appreciated. All money raised will go towards the class. This is a student lead  initiative so support for this would be great!

ISA Testing letter to parents

Week 39

Dear Parents,

Just a heads up! The MYP3's are keen to get some fundraising going in the next few months. This money will be going towards a class trip of some sort. The help we could use from parents will vary from donating items, cooking, selling or just helping set things up. None of this is mandatory by any means but all help would be greatly appreciated. Keep an eye out for any way in which you could help! All ideas are welcome!

        On another sad note, it would be great if you could follow up with students any late attendances for lesson. We are finding that students are coming a few minutes late and unprepared. If you could check and encourage them to manage their time this would be a great help for us, the students and the other children in the class.
