Term 1 Week 10
The end of term is very close and this will be the final newsletter for Term 1. During the week our Stage 3 students, Miss Parr and Mrs Hurney were given the opportunity to visit the high school and experience the infamous Eddi Woo. This inspirational mathematician collaborated with staff and students and shared his experiences and wisdom in the area of “Working Mathematically”. We are such a lucky community to be able to say our students have been given this opportunity. On Thursday we had a visit from our Executive Director, School Performance, Tim McCallum and Director of Educational Leadership, Mr John Millburn. Our students showcased their wonderful skills around technology. It was great to witness the emerging skills that our students will need for their chosen profession in the next fifteen to twenty years. In the last P&C meeting, I discussed the movement of our school staff development day for Term 2. Students will return to school on Monday 29th April. Our Staff development day has been moved to Tuesday 11th June. This means your family can plan an extra long weekend! Our Star Struck group are lucky to have Miss Mollie on board to help them practice and learn their dance and finale for their performance. Thank you to our parents for returning the sizing for the costumes promptly. The white shirt to go under the overalls will be supplied free of charge from the costume company. The girls will need white shoes to compliment their costume. Mrs Hurney will be relieving while I am away early next term. Mrs Datson will be on the Primary class when Mrs Hurney is off class. Enjoy your holidays and please stay safe. Have a safe holiday and fabulous Easter, Mrs Bultitude & Staff Attendance:
