Prep/1 SLEEPOVER & 2/3 CAMP Next week is the Prep/1 sleep over at school and then our grade 2/3 students head to Port Fairy on December 7 th and 8 th . The sleepover and camps are an important part of our extra curricula programs here at school and as a result students learn many life skills. The activities students take part in challenge them and build their resilience, teach them independence while having a lot of fun with their classmates in a supportive environment. A lot of planning and work goes into organising camps by staff and many extra hours are volunteered, away from their own families outside school hours during the overnight stays. If you get a chance, please say thank you to our staff. A reminder payment for all school camps must be paid before students go on camp please.

Mrs C will do the specialist role the first 3 weeks of term 1 next year, with the specialist position then filled after that in 2018. Mr Miller is taking leave without pay for another 12 months next year to help and support at home with Charlotte’s recovery. Mr Miller is hoping to do some part time work in Warrnambool.

♣ Tuesday, January 30th and Wednesday, January 31st are student assessment days. Students do not attend school as normal on these 2 days. All students will be allotted a 30 minute assessment time. This will be sent home before the end of the year. Parents will need to bring their child/ren along to their allotted assessment sessions please.
♣ All students will start normal school days on Thursday, February 1st 2018
NEW FAMILIES ALWAYS WELCOME We welcome new families anytime to our school. If you know of new families to the area or families wanting to attend our school please encourage them to visit and discuss enrolment.

Roses Gap Camp
We were so pleased to have some amazing helpers for Mrs C’s Grade 3/4 this morning. Many thanks to Paul, Chris, Andrew, Josh and Helen who kindly gave their time to share kitchen garden with their child/grandchild/sibling. We really appreciate people coming in and giving a hand in guiding the kids through their recipes and gardening tasks. The smiles on the kids faces also show they really enjoy having you there too. Yesterday the grade prepared pasta dough and today rolled it out into a herb fettuccini which was served with a garlic butter and orange & fennel salad. The kids absolutely love making and eating pasta and this was a big hit with many requesting seconds. This was followed by festive shortbreads served with balsamic strawberries and ice-cream, a very special treat. The balsamic strawberries definitely challenged their taste perceptions and a lot pleasantly found they really enjoyed them.Instead of gardening today due to the heat, everyone started work on designing a laser cut metal artwork for the shed wall. Some great ideas and designs were shared!
PANCAKES Pancake roster ready to fill - please have a look at the roster on the next page - many hands make light work - contact Melissa or

Thank you.
End of year class raffles

our class raffles. Items can be toys, games, stationery, lollies,
Christmas bits n pieces etc. At our end of year concert all children will be entered into their class raffle and the winner will receive a hamper of goodies!
Items can be left at the front office.
