Welcome back I’d like to wish everyone a warm welcome back after
a restful mid-year break. I hope that all families had the
opportunity to relax a little in preparation for a final term. Many
activities and items are already planned on the calendar and this
term looks to equal the previous terms for opportunities and events
for all children. Staffing News Mrs Karen Barry will be on leave
from the beginning of the term and it is anticipated she will be
back on deck by Monday November 13. Mrs Barry will be receiving
treatment for her condition and I know the community will join me
in wishing Mrs Barry and her family their best wishes during this
time. Mr Henry George joins our staff once again as he was
successful in obtaining the vacant Assistant Principal position. Mr
George is a very familiar face to our school and we are extremely
grateful that he has returned in this capacity. Mr George will be
taking the ‘Platypus’ class during Mrs Barry’s leave. Special
Photos / Sports Photos
On Friday October 13, our school will have ‘The School
Photographer’ back in the school to take the photos of special
groups and the sporting teams.
Children will need to have both sets of uniforms available for
this date if they are in these photos. This day will run exactly
the same way that school photos are conducted.
Parents will have an opportunity to purchase the school’s
booklet or individual photos.
Please see the front office if you have any questions.

Special Swimming Scheme Just a reminder, our two week swim
school program will start on Monday October 16. This program is an
excellent program teaching children water safety and building
children’s confidence and self-esteem. Hopefully, all children
remember their costume, towel and other essential items. 100%

Children’s Artwork Orders
The P&C have had a great response to the Calendar Artwork
Fundraiser. However, a number of people have indicated that the
timing of excursions last term prevented them from ordering by the
cut-off date. To accommodate any parents who missed out on ordering
for any reason, the P&C have kindly offered to run a second
round of orders.
All order forms and money will need to be received by the school
by this Friday 13 October. An order form is included with this
newsletter.

MUSIC In Music this term, students will be learning how to play
chords on the guitar. We are hoping that anyone who has a spare
acoustic guitar they are not using could donate it to the school.
This will allow students enjoy playing guitar together as a
class.
Please see Music Teacher Michelle Garcia, thank you.
