Primary News and Key Dates

Welcome back to term two. I hope that you all had a wonderful break as we celebrated the death and resurrection of our wonderful Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. It has been a joy to hear that the children have come back settled and ready to learn.

As we move forward into this new term, I hope the following points are helpful reminders for you.

IMPORTANT DATES

• Monday 9 May – Years 5 and 6 Cyber Safety presentation
• Tuesday 10 May to Friday 20 May – NAPLAN for Years 3 and 5
• Monday 16 May to Friday 20 May – Year 6 Alternate Program and Camp
• Monday 23 May – Year 6 Primary Leadership Christian Conference
• Wednesday 1 June – Year 3 Excursion
• Tuesday 14 June – Report Writing Day – no students onsite
• Friday 24 June – Last day of Term two

UNIFORM

• Full winter uniform to be worn from the start of week three – Monday, 9 May
• School jackets may be worn, but are in addition to the jumper – a jacket without a jumper is not acceptable
• Dress warmly as ventilation is still required in classrooms

CHAPEL

• Parents will be issued with an invitation to attend Chapel on the day that their child’s class is presenting the message – your child’s homeroom teacher will notify you of this
• This allows people to begin attending Chapel again in a safely monitored way

SAFETY

• When crossing the road in the carpark it is important that your child knows they are to use the zebra crossing – parents, please model this for our children
• If your child crosses a road outside of the school grounds on their way to or from school, remind them that they must use a zebra crossing to cross safely
• Parents are not to stop their cars on the zebra crossing in the car park as children need constant access to these so that they can enter the school safely

I hope that you and your children have a positive and successful term.

If you have any questions at all, never hesitate to contact us as we are here to work with you.
