2020 SCHOOL LEADERS

Last week I met with all Year 5 students to begin the process of electing our 2020

Captains, Vice Captains and School Leaders. Some key dates to remember are:

Wednesday 27th November @ 9.30am—Final day for nomination forms

Wednesday 4th December @ 9.30am—Speeches in the hall

Tuesday 10th December—Presentation Night— Leaders announced

I wish all those students who are standing for election the very best and thank them for

their contribution and positivity towards our school.

K-6 TRANSITION

Next week we start our 2019/2020 transition program for all students in Kindergarten

to Year 5. Students will be placed into groups based on their academic year for 2020.

Each afternoon next week, students will rotate around teachers with different cohorts

of students.

Please note that the groups are not final classes for 2020, nor are the teachers they may

visit representative of the teacher they may have. We run this program to provide

students with the opportunity to experience being amongst different peers, to visit

different rooms within the school and to enjoy spending time with different teachers.

The overall aim of these afternoons is to demystify the new year and to help our

students to feel comfortable with the changes that will occur. Hopefully by experiencing

a range of teachers and classrooms they will feel more confident and relaxed about the

start of a new and exciting year in 2020.

It’s that time of year again, the Carols Under The COLA night is just around the

corner! Get ready to sing your heart out on Friday, December 6th. The festivities

will begin from 6.30pm with a fun evening of music, singing and Christmas cheer.

The Carols are a great way for the school community to get together and celebrate the

year that was. It gives the students an opportunity to have some fun with their friends,

and enjoy a final event with the Year 6 group, before they venture off to high school.

The night will feature:

Plenty of music, with each class singing a Christmas carol

Food for purchase from the P&C, or BYO picnic dinner (no alcohol)

Cool drinks and icy poles for purchase, to help keep cool!

Major prize raffles

There will also be a major prize available with raffle tickets being sold to help raise money for the following

school year. Our friends at Vuly Trampolines have generously donated an Ultra Medium Trampoline, valued at

$799.

Vuly Play are Australia’s leading outdoor play equipment designers and manufacturers of safe trampolines and

playsets. The heavy-duty frame and secure enclosure keeps bouncers safe. The netting (made from advanced

polyethylene) also undergoes rigorous testing for performance, in both high-UV and wet weather conditions.

For your family’s chance to win this and other incredible prizes, come along to enjoy a night of festivities.

Raffle tickets will be sent home to each family, sold at various school events prior, and on the night.

Don’t forget to BYO chair, beanbag or picnic rug and we look forward to seeing you there!
