THE PTA MONSTER FAIR

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

We are in need of some goodies for our Fair Stall, ‘SSEUG’.

It would be appreciated if everyone could bring something that could be donated as part of our stall’s grand prize, a beautiful hamper. Non-perishable such as chocolate, nuts etc. would be amazing.

We will be in charge of the hamper and decorating the hamper too.

Thank you

Joseph Vangioni, Jesse Holmes and Sammi Young

Hello Everyone...

I am stunned to realise that we are in Term 4 already.

As you can imagine, this will be a VERY busy term. We have athletics, the Fair, summer sport, camp, ERO, Heaton Intermediate testing and visits, PAL, Leavers Assembly .... and this is on top of our normal programme. Because of this please make sure the homework book is signed each day and that you expect the same high standards from the fine students of Room 27.

HATS: Please make sure that there is a named hat at school from day 1. The sun is getting higher in the sky now.

I hope to see you all as the term unwinds.

Hello Everyone

What a busy last few weeks it has been - inside and outside of the classroom. We've started our new mathematics unit, Measurement and we will be continuing this next Term as there's so much happening! The students have written some fab-tastic narratives over the last few weeks. We'll be sharing these on our Blog once everyone has finished publishing.

On another note, It is great to see how 'animated' the teaching profession and general public is over the Government's plans, and I remain hopeful that common sense will prevail. In the meantime, I hope that every student enjoys a well earned rest. I am looking forward to camp, plays, reciprocal reading, cricket, athletics and a whole lot of other fun learning activities in Term 4!

On Monday, the school Talent Quest took place. Keziah placed 3rd in the Senior Competition - a massive effort. Keziah sang, unaccompanied, 'Ordinary People' by John Legend. It was an absolutely incredible performance! Also, congratulations to Finn, Anna and Katie for making the Talent Quest Final. They performed John Lennon's song 'Imagine'. I truly stirring rendition of one of my all time favourite songs.

Today for our Big Day Out, the syndicate went bowling! Check out the cool videos and photos!
