Nude food
It’s been a fabulous turn around with so many healthy lunches coming to school every
day! Well done everybody who participates in Nude Food – healthy food.
Prep Transition
Today we had the new preps for 2015 come to school for their first Transition session.
It was terrific to see their eager little faces learn so much about school already. Next
week we will have the parent session where there will be an opportunity to share the
great things that we do at our school and also for parents to ask any questions that
will help prepare them too! If you know of any pre schooler who is not enrolled en-
courage them to come and see us.
New lines
We are having new colored lines painted around school very soon – how exciting! We
know that they will be well used by all of us. The tennis is going really well, new lines
will be an added bonus together with new hopscotch etc.
Blue Light Disco
Gosh it was difficult recognising some of our students today. The 5/6 students went
off to one of their favourite activities today –the Blue Light Disco which is organised by
the Police. We are most grateful to the Police who run this event each year for every
grade 5/6 student in Geelong.
Christmas Tree
As you know, once again our school has decorated one of the Christmas Trees that is
on display in the City, remember to have a look at them as they are fabulous. Also,
remember that the floating Christmas Tree is being launched tomorrow evening. Our
school Captains are guests at what will most probably be and amazing event from
8.15- 8.15pm
Fruit
Every morning our students look forward to the fresh fruit that is so beautifully pre-
sented to the classrooms. We desperately need someone who could come in and cut
it up each Wednesday until the end of the year. If you are available, please see us at
the office.
Pat, our Lollypop lady
Congratulations to Pat, our famous lollypop lady who has celebrated more than 30
years as a lollipop lady – what an achievement
Have a lovely week,
Julie Warren
