REMINDERS

• Despite many reminders about students arriving early, there has been no change in the number of children who are arriving to school before supervision begins.

  We are in a bind because 1. We legally can't ask teachers to supervise children outside of their working hours. 2. We have a duty of care to make sure children are supervised.

  If we see no change in the number of children who arrive at school before 8.15am, without prior contact with the school, we will have to hire someone to supervise students and families will be charged, to cover the cost. Supervision of students begins at 8.20am in the breakfast program.

  Students can arrive at 8.15am to be directed to the breakfast program.

• Last day of Term 4 is Wednesday 17th December at 3.15pm

Thank you for all your support. It is with great pleasure to share that our Monty’s Colour&Slime Fun Run was a huge success.

It was fantastic to see the spirit and enthusiasm that was displayed in supporting our school. Seeing the smiles on the students' faces during the event and everyone coming together was truly amazing!

We raised $2540 which will go toward our Hands on Learning and Lunch program.

The incentive prizes have been ordered and are on their way. Once we receive the prize order at the school, we will sort and distribute them in a timely manner.

Again, we thank you for your support and fundraising efforts, we couldn’t have done it without you!
