Week 6, Term 2



Good afternoon everyone,

Today we experienced a little of what life might be like in a refugee camp.  What if? Remember to ask your child about their day.  We are so grateful for the place where are and the time we have.

There is no spelling list this week. Every week we love to see each student reach 1000 points in Mathletics and at least 15 minutes of reading each night. This week students have an assignment due Friday that can be worked on for UOI if they would like to.

Gardening and Kitchen this week is back to normal! Gardening Tuesday, 9am 6E and 10am 6S.
We would love one or two helpers for each class in the Kitchen this week if possible. 



Whole school reminders/updates:

Thanks for supporting the many events held last week. 
(Reconciliation Day, Scholastic Book Fair, Disco, Zion Preschool 40th Birthday).
It was a busy week! 
Thanks for dressing students in the correct winter uniform and for getting them to school on time (8.50am is start of day).
