Monday 28th August 2017 Term 3 Week 7

Welcome to week 7.

Thank you to those parents/

grandparents etc who assisted the students with their Book Week costumes- we are regularly promoting the joy of books and the value of reading and the parade was a great way to celebrate Book Week.

Our new garden area is nearly

completed- a huge thank you to Mr Neil Pokoney for managing the project, the students who assisted him, the staff and families who donated hay, pallets and manure and a VERY big thank you to AgNVet for their donations towards the construction.

When you are next at the school you are welcome to visit the vegetable garden area - it will soon become a very valuable outside learning area for our students.

Enjoy your week.

All of our students celebrated reading

last week with plenty of fun activities.

Everyone visited the town library to

enjoy the Book Week activities organised

by Cathy as well as to see the fantastic

competition entries.

We had great fun on the Wednesday

dressing as some of our favourite book

characters and shared some special

stories with our buddies.

Many children were racing the clock

trying to finish off the 20 books

required for the Reading Challenge

(which finished on Friday) and, of

course, all of our students were reading

every day as part of their normal school

routine. Happy reading, everyone!
