Best Start Kindergarten During the past two weeks all children in kindergarten have been participating in a range of literacy and numeracy assessments with their class teachers. The assessments measure the children’s knowledge of literacy and numeracy concepts. The assessments are done on an individual basis. The children may come home to tell you that they had a new teacher on particular days. This is because Mrs Lack and Mrs King will be working individually with the students while another teacher teaches the class. At the conclusion of these assessments parents will receive a report detailing their child’s results. This is a very useful diagnostic assessment which allows the teachers to tailor their class programs to suit the learning needs of the children.
Queensland Flood Relief Fundraiser We would like to hold a fundraising day on Thursday 17 February for all the victims of the floods in Brisbane and further north in Queensland after this terrible cyclone. All children can wear maroon coloured clothes or can choose their favourite sports team colour
and enjoy a special day out of uniform. We ask all the children to bring a gold coin or more if possible to help the flood and cyclone affected victims. Recorder and Music Folder All students in Years 1 to 6 require a recorder and display book for their weekly music lessons. These can be purchased from the front office as a set for $12. We have purchased the proper Yamaha recorders so that all students will have a quality sounding recorder. Please don’t buy an inexpensive sparkly recorder for your child because the sound will not be pleasant. School Hats We have a new supply of hats in the office. They are available in two sizes - medium and large. The price is $12. Dollarmite Banking If your child has a Dollarmite account and you would like to bank through the school please ask your child to bring the bank book to the office on a Monday. The money will be recorded and banked during the week. The bank book will be returned via the class teacher by the end of the week. The CBA pays a commission to the school for every deposit made.
EFTPOS is available for payments of $20.00 or more for school activities at the office.(excludes
P&C payments).
News From Stage Two Mr Bush and students in 3/4B were very fortunate to have a visit from Ms Turnbull last week. Ms Turnbull is a science teacher from Murwillumbah High school and is mum to Alyssa and Cooper. The children in 3/4B enjoyed a session of science experiments and looked at bones in our skeleton. The children learned lots of interesting facts.
