A Special Christmas Surprise

I had the most wonderful Christmas luncheon as a guest of

Special Education yesterday. The staff and students played

host to all the people who have supported them throughout

the year. It was great to share a meal with the students and

witness their beautiful manners and hear their Christmas

wishes.

Troy Grant Visit

Yesterday our local state member, Troy Grant

visited our school to check out our great

programs and witness first hand the quality

teaching happening in our classrooms. Mr Grant

was impressed with the way our students were

focussed, on task and enjoying learning.

Reward Parties

Next week, those students who have displayed

outstanding behaviour and attendance in Term 4

will be rewarded with special activities.

Infants - Elston Park Excursion

Thursday 13th December

Primary - Water Games

Friday 14th December

Separate notes will be sent home to these lucky students.

I am also very pleased to report that there is an unbelievable

number of students who have reached Principal’s Level on

the RIPPAA system. I will be hosting a movie and snacks

next Wednesday. I look forward to sharing an afternoon with

these hardworking students

Buninyong Bucks

Just a reminder that it is an expectation that all

students continue to come to school right up until

the last day on Wednesday 19th December.

Buninyong Bucks will continue to be given out until this day.

Let’s see everyone continue to wear their school uniform as

well!

Reports/Classes 2013

Next Tuesday reports will be sent home with

students along with their class and teacher for

2013. This is a very exciting time for both
