Science Works Excursion

Just a reminder that Thursday, 24^th of July, Grade 5 students will be travelling to Science works to participate in a number of Space related activities.

As Science works is on the other side of the city, we will be leaving promptly at 9am! Therefore students will be required to be at school no later than 8.50am and will be returning by 2.30pm.

Students will need to bring a small backpack containing the following:

-         Their snack, lunch and drink bottle in a plastic bag

-         A rain jacket

 

We would love a parent to come along. If you are interested, please come and speak with me.

Thank you,

Miss Gomo

We had a special assembly, followed by a variety of activities recognising all cultures living in Australia and around the world. it was a terrific day!

Parent Helpers

Hello Parents!

We would love some parents to help out in the classroom during English and Maths sessions. Parents would be required to come and read with students, or help small groups with Maths tasks.

English blocks usually run between 9 - 11
Maths block are usually 11.30 - 1.30
(These are obviously subject to change depending on the day)

You do not have to commit to every week, or for the whole 2 hour block. Half an hour to an hour would be suitable.

If there are any days you have available and would like to help, please give me a call at the school or shoot me an email. You do not have to have the formal training in order to help, however you must have a 'Working with Children check' (which is free for parents)

Thank you in advance!

MEBOURNE MUSEUM

We had a fantastic time on our excursion to the Melbourne Museum and the IMAX yesterday!
