    WELCOME BACK

    Welcome back to what has been a very wet and chilly start to the second semester of school. There will be lots happening in and around our school in Term 3 and the calendar is filling up quickly. Our grade 5-6 swimming program starts next week.

    The big-ticket item is our whole school concert at the West Gippsland Art Centre. Many details have been sent home to parents over the last month and class teachers have been sending class dojo messages of any specific needs for each grade level. Tickets for the day time matinee are still available but the night session is close to sold out. A big shout out to Mrs Kiezenberg for all her efforts in pulling this year’s school concert together. She has done an amazing job on top of a busy teaching load.

    We welcome back Ms. Hayley Roberts from her long service leave and thank Mrs Vann for covering her last term. We also welcome Mrs. Radhika Edwards to grade 3-4 team and Ms. Kristy Nicholson who will do two days Art supporting Mrs Leary who has reduced her days.

    Our new school build looks amazing and there was a lot of progress during the break. The interior plastering is now finished and the painters are onsite and working inside. Ben the Builder is very happy with progress as the interior jobs can now be done without being impacted by wet days.

    NAPLAN DATA

    Student NAPLAN test results will be sent home to parents in the next week. This document will be enveloped and addressed to parents. Please keep these documents safe as you may need to source them at a later date when your child transitions to secondary school.

    RECONCILIATION FOR SACRAMENTAL CANDIDATES

    Thanks to Mrs Lewry and the Parish sacramental team for delivering a beautiful reconciliation service for all our confirmation candidates. It was a terrific role up by families before next weekends Confirmation which will be held on Friday 26th July starting at 7.00pm in the St Ita’s Church.

    We keep all our confirmation candidates in our prayers as the take the next step in their Sacramental journey.
