A MESSAGE FROM OUR DEPUTY PRINCIPAL FOR LOWER PRIMARY

The past fortnight has been incredibly busy with students now almost at the halfway mark for Term 1 (where has the time gone)! I have enjoyed visiting classrooms across Prep through to Year 3 to see the great work students are producing across all the learning areas. Students are beginning to adjust to their new year levels and Prep students have finally gotten to enjoy the nature playground with the weather easing up with less wet weather play.

Our lunch time clubs have been very popular with many students attending Dance Fit with Mrs Miller, Chess Club with Ms Glaspy, Robotics with Mrs Buttenshaw, Basketball Club with Mr Tan, and Japanese Club with Mrs Fulwood and Mrs Thimios to name a few. We also have a new club on offer this term with Mrs Davis introducing an Art Club. I look forward to sharing some artwork from this Club in the coming weeks as students have an opportunity to get creative during the breaks.

Thank you to our families who were able to attend our Meet and Greet sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. It was such a wonderful opportunity for families and carers to re-connect and meet their child’s teacher to listen to a presentation about classroom routines and curriculum expectations. It also provides an opportunity to ask questions and network with other parents.

Finally, we are very close to handing out our first set of prizes to children in Year 1 to Year 3 who have been diligently reading every night and recording their reading mileage in their reading diary. Ms Glaspy and I cannot wait to see who will attend the library first with their reading diary in hand to share they have hit the first milestone of 25 nights of reading. Check out some of the awesome books and prizes we have ready to hand out to those students. Prep students will commence this reading diary later in the semester when they begin taking home their homework folder.

Kind regards,
