Up and coming events...

Notices have been sent home for our Tabloid Sports day on Tuesday 23rd November. The cost of this is covered by the excursion levy. Please return notices ASAP if your child is to be part of this great day! Keep the date of Wednesday 15th December free...we have our annual Prep Christmas Concert! This will be a great night with awesome entertainment by the children. Before the actual concert, we will have a BYO picnic dinner. More information to come... Hope to see you all there :)  We have swimming coming up in a couple of weeks. Notices have been sent home and deposits are required in either installments or full payment and these are now due. Please send in the permission note for this indicating whether or not your child will be participating. It is expected that all children will participate in this program. We will require a lot of parent help for this program to assist in the change rooms...if you can help with this, you must have a 'working with children's check' worn visibly around your neck. You do not need to commit to certain days, you can simply meet us at the pool to either watch your child's lesson or later to help with changing. We look forward to a great fortnight of swimming!!

 If anyone has anyone has any magazines that you no longer need, please bring them into school. We will put them to use! If you have any that you have read, please bring them in :)  I am still seeking volunteers to assist our class during literacy groups. Without your help groups simply cannot run! I am seeking help every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Helping in the classroom is a very rewarding opportunity and the kids (and myself!!) really appreciate it. If you have offered your time to be a classroom helper please make sure you have your 'Working with Children Check' visible around your neck at all times.  Below is a timetable of helpers and their allocated days; Tuesday; Mina Chiovitti, Bobby Dhiman, Jane Zhao (every 2nd week)  Wednesday; Rod Start, Karen Bennett  Thursday; Nataliya Rychkova, Rod Start  Friday; Jacqui Drinnan, Rod Start  PMP (Perceptual Motor Program) sessions will be run in the Multi Purpose Hall on Wednesdays between 2.30-3.15pm and will focus on gross motor skills, balance and coordination. If you are a PMP helper please meet in the hall at 2.30pm.

Well done to all those children who took part in the Victorian Premier's Reading Challenge! If your child read the minimum number of books, they will receive a special certificate and their name will be published in 'The Age' newspaper.
