Thursday 1st September
Session 1: Foundation – Grade 2: 4.30pm – 5.15pm
Session 2: Grade 3 – Grade 6: 5.30pm to 6.30pm
Entry is $7 which includes 1 x glowie when entering the disco as well as a packet of chips and a bottle of water at the end of the disco.
Pre-purchase your tickets and avoid the queue! Tickets can be pre-purchased until Friday August 26. Place the tear off pre-purchase slip and payment in an envelope marked ‘Kids Disco’ and hand it to the school office. Wrist bands will then be sent home.
The disco is being held in the Performing Arts Centre (PAC) this year. At the end of the disco each child will receive a packet of chips and a bottle of water. If you think your child will get hot & thirsty please bring a labelled drink bottle to be left on a table in the disco.
Each child will receive a glowie as part of their entry but we will also be selling different glowies before the start of the disco.
Children in session 1 (Foundation to Grade 2) will need to be signed in by their parents so please allow time before the start of the disco to do this.
This is a ‘kids only’ event and each child can only attend the disco for their year level. We will have school parents as well as Gayle and Megan supervising.
This year’s theme is ‘Crazy Hair’ so go wild with your creations! Coloured hairspray, gel, glitter… anything goes!

Besen Centre in Mount Scopus
We are now in full Production mode in Performing Arts. We are so fortunate to have the very talented
choreographers from Crazy Feet, led by Trish (who has Kaylee in FS), come and teach all of our classes their
dances. I have been super impressed at how quickly everyone has picked up and remembered all their moves!
We have held auditions for the skits that will take place throughout the show and rehearsals have begun. Well
done to those students who were interested in auditioning and successful for this year’s show.
