School Highlight

SCIENCE ON THE MOVE Our K-1-2 class were invited to

Upper Macleay Pre School last

Tuesday to join in with Science on

the Move. The children watched

demonstrations and joined in

activities around floating and

sinking, magnets, gears and optical

illusion. Thanks UMPS for inviting

us. We had lots of fun!

From the Principal

Congratulations to our Year 3 and 5 students for their application to the

NAPLAN literacy, writing, reading and numeracy tests last week. Results of

the tests will be available in August.

The cooler weather has arrived and all of us would like to remind you to please

put names in jumpers so we can make sure they are returned if misplaced.

Another reminder as well to provide a note or let the school know if your child

is going to be away from school, or sick, as soon as you can. If your child is off

sick for longer than two days they will need a medical certificate as well. This

is a Department of Education requirement.

This week we have our school athletics carnival. Thank you to Mrs Scanlon

and Kerry for their organisation. It should be a wonderful day, especially if the

weather holds, and a good opportunity for all of our community to get involved

with the school celebrating our student’s achievements. If you can help with

events on the day it would be appreciated. Our P & C canteen will be operating

a BBQ on the day. Please sign and return the attached permission note.

My door is always open to parents. If you would like to discuss anything about

our school please feel free to drop in. I am always available on Thursday or

Friday unless I am called away and I am generally here from 7:30am until

4:30pm.

The White Cross Mobile Dental Care

will be at school to perform dental

examinations. The attached information

needs to be completed and returned to

school this week if you want your child

to take part in these examinations.

School photos are scheduled for

Wednesday 20th June. Children need to

be in full school uniform. Payment

envelopes will be sent home in the next

few weeks.

Regards, Stephen de Roos

Miss B’s gymnastics lessons look like lots of fun.
