LIVING VALUE FOR MAY: TOLERANCE

Dear Parents / Caregivers

I trust everyone had a relaxing time over the extended holiday period. Thank you to those parents who supported our "holiday homework", it has given the children the ability to move forward at a slightly quicker pace.Those children who did not complete the tasks, will have to do them in the afternoon at school.

Our Club Family focus is on the BIG WALK. If we put all our energy into this event we can make our budgeted target which could let you off the hook for the rest of the year. I encourage you to support your class reps by bringing in what's required.

Winter uniform needs to be correctly worn, please don't mix 'n match. Part of being proud of your school is shown in how you wear the uniform. We do have a large stock of jerseys, gyms and skirts in our swop shop.

Our Winter sports are on the go, so please come and support our teams in the afternoons.We have soccer matches on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, with netball matches on Thursdays.

Congratulations to Kamogelo Malise who was selected for the Inter-District soccer team. We wish him and his team success in next week's tournament.
