At assembly this morning group 2 and Lucy performed a terrific song about

Life Education - Monday
All the students will be working with the Life Education teacher on
Monday. The life education program works on developing students'
management of their own health and well-being. The Life Ed Van will be
parked in the school grounds on Monday and all the students are looking
forward to the day.
New School Planning meeting
On Wednesday we will be holding our next meeting on the design of the
new school. We will be talking about how technology should be built in to
the design and discussing the needs of the school. This will be an important
discussion because so many of our programs rely on reliable and efficient
technology.

LOOSE ENDS Jens Altheimer
A story about friendship, loyalty and inventiveness
Dive into a theatrical adventure that feels like the magic box of a bygone trickster – perfect for makers, creators and story lovers. Journey to an eccentric place where gadgets are poetic, puppets are naughty, machines are untamed, and circus tricks pop up when you’re least expecting them. This is a world where music appears from lemons, carrots and a bunny’s bum, monsters go crazy, and birthday parties are ferociously celebrated. Loose Ends is the story of a man who thinks he can organise his life in boxes, and has a knack for getting into mischief. Can this tinkerer learn enough about real friendship to keep him out of trouble? This show makes inventions and machines fun and adds a quirky edge to puppetry.
