WEEK 9 TERM 4 Commencing Monday 10th December 2018
Welcome to what will be another huge week at Parkview Public School. It is quite incredible to think that as most of you are reading the newsletter this week there are only 7 school days left in the year. Last week was another wonderfully exciting and varied week for our children highlighted by some very exciting days for our Kindergarten-Year 2 students who enjoyed their Excursion Days at the Willans Hill Railway and Flip Out in Wagga Wagga. The week was also provided great experiences with the conclusion of the Years 2-6 Swim School, attendance for Years 3-6 students to the Leeton High School Performing Arts Showcase event MADD and the hosting of the keenly contested Farrell Cup Ball Games competition for all children in the school. It was also a week of significant pride for our students with 37 Parkview PS students being honoured with awards last Wednesday evening at the Leeton AECG Proud and Deadly Awards hosted in the Parkview PS Hall. Congratulations is extended to all award recipients and thanks is extended to the community members who contributed to the hosting of a successful event. After an enjoyable Term 4 Reward Experience at the Roxy Theatre today, we turn our attention to a jam packed two weeks to complete the school year. Please consider the following as you work through a jam-packed calendar: School Banking Today was the last day for school banking for the year. Banking will be processed over the next few days with bank books returned to all students on Tuesday, 18th December.
