As you know, our school has been participating

in the Woolworths Earn & Learn program. The

program has now finished for this year, so a big

thanks to everyone who supported our school.

We're now at the important stage of the program

where the Sticker Sheets are collected and

lodged as our Earn & Learn claim. We will then

be able to get new educational equipment for our

school. The more we collect, the more we can

redeem. So this week, please send in your

Woolworths Earn & Learn Sticker Sheets and

any loose Earn & Learn stickers you may have.

Remember to check your handbag, the car glove

box or they may be stuck on the fridge. Every

little bit helps. Thanks again for all your support!

We are running the Dance to Be Fit program next

term for K-6. We realise that there have been

many requests for payments for camps and

excursions recently, however, if you need to

make instalments to pay for the program, please

see the staff in the office and arrangements can

be made. At this stage we need to know who is

participating in the program to make finalise

timetables.

A reminder to all parents that children should be

in full school uniform, every day. Canterbury

track pants and shorts are not part of the school

uniform.

This is the last week of the term. Classes resume

on Tuesday, 6th October.
