TERM 4- NO HAT NO PLAY As a Sunsmart school we must protect our students from harsh UV rays. Just a reminder to parents that during Term 4 all students need to wear a broad brimmed hat during recesses and lunchtimes. Unfortunately any student who does not have a broad brimmed hat will need to be supervised inside during recess and lunchtimes. Please ensure your child’s hat is clearly labelled. Many thanks to all parents for their support with this school policy.

iPads FOR STUDENTS IN GRADE 3 FOR 2019 In 2019 the Rollins iPad Program will continue to operate. Students who are currently in Grade 2 in 2018 will be asked to purchase an Apple iPad device.

We encourage parents to purchase an iPad independently from Target, Big W or PCD in Mercer St. Please ensure the following specifications are met when purchasing an iPad:

Apple iPad 6th Generation Wi-Fi 32(GB). Parents may choose to purchase a device with greater specifications if they wish.

2019 PARENT PAYMENTS School Council has set Parent Payments for 2019 at the following: $150 per child or $100 with a valid Health Card which must be presented at the office. We would appreciate full payment by Friday 14th December 2018. All pre-paid book packs will be delivered to the children in their classrooms on the first day of Term 1.

This week is Assembly Week 3/4D Music Performance

REGIONAL ATHLETIC RESULTS Seth McCleish: Phoenix McCleish: 1st Triple Jump 8th Triple Jump 3rd Long Jump Congratulations to both these students on their achievements. CUSTODY ARRANGEMENTS It is not unusual for families to have custody arrangements that take into account a wide variety of family circumstances. As a school we believe that we manage these arrangements well and the children are always our first consideration. It is vitally important when custody arrangements are in place that we are provided with copies of any relevant documents such as Court Orders. We are obliged to comply with these legal requirements. Should your personal circumstances change we urge you to contact us promptly so that we are well placed to support your child.

CAMP QAULITY PERFORMANCE Our students were extremely fortunate to experience the Camp Quality puppet show recently. This fun activity was a great way for children to gain knowledge and understanding of this disease.

ROLLINS BOOK FAIR 2018 This is a great opportunity to encourage a love of reading. There will be a wide range of books, pens and posters to purchase. The book store will open before school and after school only.
