Cross Country
On Monday 21st March 2016, all students in Prep to Year 6 will take part in our annual Cross Country Carnival. The main emphasis of the day is “Participation, Team Spirit and Challenging Ourselves!”
It is also an integral part of our School’s Fitness Program. We welcome you, your family and friends to come along to support the students and their team.
A few things to remember:
• Bring your hat, sunscreen, a drink and something to sit on.
• Wear team colours to show your support.
• There will be a coffee van at the side of the hall for light refreshments. For the students’ safety and the efficient running of events:
• Students are not permitted to wear spikes.
Please wear sport shoes!
• Spectators are not permitted on the ovals or near the course markers and must stay behind the barriers.
Other information:
• After your child has raced they will be expected to return to class.
• Any student who is not able to participate must bring a Parent/Guardian note to their class teacher. If they do not provide a note they will be expected to participate.
Please ensure that your child is aware of their year of birth.

Celebration of Learning - Showcase
On Wednesday 23 March, we will hold our first Celebration of Learning showcase night from 6:00 to 7:00pm. All classrooms and specialist areas will be open for your child/ren to lead you around to experience a small snapshot of the excellent work that has occurred during Term 1. I hope to see as many families attend this night as possible. You will be able to collect the Term 1 portfolio at showcase and peruse through this during the Easter holidays. The portfolio must be returned on the first day of Term 2.
A reminder to all parents that this is not a parent-teacher interview night. It would not be possible in the one-hour time frame for me to spend 5 mins with every family. It is also a very busy night and your child’s privacy would not be respected if I were speaking to you regarding your concerns, when other parents and children are present in the room.
Please make an appointment if you have any concerns or questions about your child’s portfolio or progress in Term 1.

Excursion to Ngutana Lui
A reminder that the Year 4 students will be going on an excursion to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Centre at Inala this Thursday. This is the culminating activity for our History/English unit on "The First Australians". Students will need to bring a packed lunch, school hat and a water bottle. All students are expected to follow school rules whilst on the excursion. The bus will depart school at 9:00am, and we will return to school by 2:45pm.
