The SkoolBag app has changed. The old app will cease in January 2019. You can now access the new one which is much user friendly. You can add additional schools to the app (handy for siblings in high school). The SkoolBag app is an easy way to stay up-to-date with school events, last minute notices, newsletters and other school communications. The link below takes you to installation instructions. https://moqproducts.com.au/skoolbag/installation-instructions/
Tomorrow is the last opportunity to purchase tickets for our band fundraiser. Come along and see the movie Grinch this Saturday at the Tower Cinemas. Doors open at 2.00pm with cakes and lollies for sale. Movie commences at 3.00 pm. Tickets are $12 each and must be purchased by tomorrow at 10.00am.
Presentation Day is on Wednesday, 12 December. The ceremony will be held under the COLA and commence at 10.00 am. We look forward to seeing you there.
If your child has collected 10 Dollarmites tokens and would like to redeem them for a School Banking reward item this term, please fill in your child’s redemption slip and bring it along to one of our School Banking days by 28th November 2018. This will ensure the reward item will arrive before the school holidays. Any Dollarmites tokens that are not redeemed this year can be used in 2019. The school is in need of a volunteer for 2019 Student Banking. Our current volunteer, Marianne Allen, is able to train someone this year. If you can assist with this position, please contact the school. The last day for student banking is Wednesday 5 December.
The last day for Library borrowing is Thursday 6 December. Please send in any overdue books. We now have stocktaking in progress.
Stage 2 students and teachers had a fabulous time at Great Aussie Bush Camp last week. Some of the favourite activities they participated in were giant swing, high ropes, bushcraft, archery and canoeing. They also enjoyed a heart racing game of Commando and competently organised their very own County Fair. The behaviour of all students was exemplary and all teachers were very pleased with the ‘can do’ attitude of all campers.
