Thank you to Finley High School staff who dropped in to discuss transition to high school. Mr Webb (Year 7 Year Advisor 2022), Jodi Brown (Student Support Officer) and Mrs Bird (Support Teacher) made the whole adventure sound fantastic. The Year 6 students were even joined by some members of the agricultural department!
Principal’s Report Dear Parents and Carers,
Good luck to the students in Years 3 and 5 with NAPLAN this week. They have Language Conventions and Writing today, Reading tomorrow and finish off with Numeracy on Thursday.
Parent/Teacher Interviews were held last week. We were very pleased so many parents took the opportunity to catch up with their child’s class teacher. If you were not able to arrange an interview at a suitable time, please contact your class teacher, as some parents have done, so one can be arranged.
Congratulations to the P&C on a successful Mothers’ Day stall last Friday morning. We hope all the Mums had a very special day on Sunday.
Our School Cross Country is on this Friday 14th May, with an altered timetable to accommodate this whole school event. Thank you to all of the parents who have volunteered to assist on the day. Parents are also welcome to attend as spectators, however they will be separate from the students, asked to remain seated and maintain social distancing. It would be a good idea to BYO rug or chair. All parents and carers are required to scan the QR Code, for contact tracing purposes, and sign in for our school records. The Zone Cross Country is now on Friday 21st May in Mulwala.
Some of the restrictions around COVID-19 continue to be relaxed but we must remember this can change very quickly. All parents who come into the school grounds are asked to please come in through the front office, sign in and scan the QR Code. We are all reminded to:
• Wash Hands often • Bring a drink bottle • Stay Away when sick and get tested if you have flu like symptoms • Encourage good hand hygiene practices and remind your children to cough and sneeze into
their elbow. • Keep up-to-date with the latest health information by monitoring the NSW Government
