Welcome to Olivia, our new student in year 3. I am sure she will make friends and settle in quickly.

The P&C is the main community association that works in partnership with the school, including: staff merit selection; school planning and budgeting; joint projects (Mud Cubby, Kitchen Garden etc); operation of the school canteen and uniform shops; fund-raising and school evaluation/improvement com-mittee. It is vital therefore we have an active and strong ex-ecutive/meeting to ensure its operation and partner-ship into the future. Executive positions for the P&C will be declared vacant at the next meeting on Tues-day 19 March at 7pm (AGM). Please consider whether you can be a part of this great organisation. More parent help needed: Two other areas where parents can be involved at the moment is in assisting with the Variety Bash visit on 20 May and with the School Musical team. The Variety Bash visit has a catering meeting on Tuesday (tomorrow) 12 March at 12:20pm in the office with the committee to discuss “lunch” menu. The School Musical (performance on term 3 Septem-ber) team needs help with costuming, make-up and prop design. Please advise office ladies if you can assist.

Early Arrivals - There have been a number of stu-dents arriving very early - before 8:30am - there is no formal supervision or legal right for students to ar-rive before 8:30am. The odd bus is occasionally early but many students have been dropped-off by par-ents/carers before 8:30. I ask parents to abide by DoE regulations.

Parent Parking/Drop-off - The only place for par-ents to park or drop-off in the zone out the front in Evans St or general parking spaces in Murray and Evans St. No parent cars are permitted in staff car parking at anytime.

Student Crossings - Students and parents are re-minded the crossing blisters are the safest places to use to cross Murray, Evans and Campbell Streets. The P&C has been working with the Traffic Com-mittee to upgrade the safety along Campbell Street but there are still high risks, especially when stu-dents do not look before crossing.

Scripture Changed today – 11 March Today is the annual visit from the “Quizworks” team which will present their show in the hall as combined Scripture for that day. Years K-6 will have the pro-gram from 11:45am. The program goes for ½ hour and Ethics will continue as normal. School Voluntary Contributions and Library Fund. This week we should have the invoices ready to go for the 2019 Voluntary contributions. As in previous years the contributions will remain the same— $45 per year for each individual child or $70 per family. Along with this voluntary contribution is a $20 donation for the Kitchen Garden and also $20 for the Library fund—which is tax deduc-

table. Which, if each family chose to pay, would be $85 for an individual child or $110 per family for the 2019 school year. This money is used to purchase education needs for the students; ie: exercise books, pencils, glue, paint, craft goods, sporting equipment, library books and kitchen garden requirements, along with much more. Please consider paying these contributions.

Sports Update - Regional Swimming this Wednes-day - Good luck to our swim team: Georgia, Tamika and Axel who will swim in their age 50m freestyle. Meagan and Abbee will also join Georgia and Tami-

ka in the Junior Girls Relay. Good luck to you all.

Staff Training In the next two weeks staff will be attending sessions on accessing and analysing student assessments.

From the front office…. SCHOOL BANKING CO-ORDINATOR REQUIRED - If anyone is interested in being our school banking co-ordinator please contact the school office. Banking is collected on Wednesdays here at the office. The co-ordinator just needs to count the money, process on a computer here at school and take the money to the bank. It should only take about an hour of your time. If you are interested please contact us asap and Jamie (who is our current co-ordinator) will run you through the ropes.

CANBERRA THEATRE PAYMENTS Keep the payments rolling in for Stages 2 and 3 to attend the Canberra Theatre on 24th May to see ‘The Billionaire Boy’ based on the book by David Walliams. The cost of the excursion is $38 and must be paid in full by Wednesday 10th April—week 11—this term. Students who have not paid by this date will not be able to attend as tickets need to be pre purchased. Please note: we will only be taking the first 150 students who pay. Notes are available at the front office. SCHOOL VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS This week we will have the invoices ready to go for the 2019 Voluntary contributions. As in previous years the contributions will remain the same: $45 per year for each individual child or $70 per family. along with this voluntary contribution is a $20 family donation for the Kitchen Garden and also $20 family donation for the Library fund—which is tax deductable. Which, if each family chose to pay in full, would be $85 for an individual child or $110 per family for the 2019 school year. This money is used to purchase educational needs for the students; ie: exercise books, pencils, glue, paint, craft goods, sporting equipment, library books and kitchen garden requirements, along with much more. Please consider paying these contributions. CHANGE OF AFTERNOON ARRANGEMENTS Please ensure that your child knows of their afternoon school arrangements before they leave home in the morning and only in the case of emergencies ring in with any changes please. We cannot guarantee that your child will receive the changes if late phone calls are made to the office as your child may not be in their allocated classroom at that time.
