Dear Parents,

ASSEMBLY: Parents and community members are invited to

attend our assembly tomorrow morning at 9.30am. We will be

announcing the Term 3 Prefects along with items from KD, Class

1S and Class 2M.

WORLD OF MATHS: Last Friday the World of Maths travelling

roadshow visited to show children from MPS and Goulburn East

PS the wonders of Mathematics. All children who attended this

fun day enjoyed the maths, origami, drawing and fitness

activities on offer. We would like to thank our P&C for providing

lunch and the band of mothers who assisted.

BUTTERFLY & MOVIE DAY: Next Friday SRC have organised a

fundraiser for the “Deafness Foundation”. We are asking for a

donation of $2 and each child will receive a butterfly badge.

Butterfly badges are being sold on consignment for the Deafness

foundation and are available @$2 each. Children can dress in

casual clothes with sensible covered shoes (joggers preferred).

We will be showing G rated movies for K-2 and Years 3-6.

CWA POSTER COMPETITION: Posters must be handed in to Mrs Darling by Monday morning 25th

June. CWA ladies will be collecting them later in the day.

STOP WORK MEETING: Teachers Federation are holding a 24hour Stop Work Meeting next

Wednesday June 27th. Our school will be operational however, there will only be minimal

supervision. There will be no library and normal class programs will not occur due to some

teachers attending the Stop Work Meeting.

MINI OLYMPICS: Next Tuesday we will be holding our Mini Olympics. Students will be taking part in

many Olympic type events during the day including: javelin, marathon, showjumping course,

shotput, rowing, long jump, high jump, soccer, volleyball, archery, lawn bowls and discus.

Parents are welcome to attend this day and assistance for some events would be greatly

appreciated. Children are required to bring their sponsor sheets in on the day for teachers to

stamp and sign. Children who do not have sponsors are still

expected to participate in this school event. Please ensure your

child/children bring plenty of water, lunch, fruit and wear warm

clothing over their sports uniform. The weather forecast is for a

clear but cold day.

HEAD LICE: The school has been notified of cases of head lice.

Please take the time to check children’s hair and treat if

necessary.

BOOK PACKS: Students have almost completed Semester One

utilising books, pencils etc for daily learning. Some book pack

payments are still outstanding and we require them to be

finalised as soon as possible. Receipts for payments made will be issued and can be claimed

when you submit your tax return.

FAREWELL: With sadness we say Goodbye to the Harris family. Mitchel and Jacob have been

valued students at MPS and will be sadly missed. We wish them all the best at their new school.

MARULAN PS MINI OLYMPIC-A-THON

Tuesday June 29th all students will take

part in a fun day of Olympic type events

in aid to raise much needed funds to

purchase Interactive Whiteboards for

our classrooms.

The photos herewith show students

utilising them in lessons and also the

technology required for Interactive

Whiteboards to be functional.

We have a goal of $20,000 to raise and with

family support, community members and

businesses alike we hope to achieve this figure.

Prizes:

$5.00 - $50 – bouncyball or skipping rope

$50 - $150 – Soccerball or football or netball or

AFL ball

$150 & over - $50 Store gift voucher

There is also a prize for the student who raises the

most funds.

Interactive Whiteboards are a vital part of our

children’s education, keeping them updated with modern technology.

We hope all families can assist with fundraising for this worthwhile cause. We do however

discourage the children from walking door to door to gain sponsors.
