Arrival of Lexi Isabella Geelhoed

We are thrilled to announce the safe arrival of Lexi Isabella Geelhoed. She was born 1.37am on 20 January at a very healthy 3.61kg and 49cm long. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to write this post, I've been trying to attach a photo, which it's just not letting me do.

I would just like to thank all of you again for the support and kind wishes. I miss all of you and hope that everyone has had a wonderful start to 2017, especially for your first week of High School.

Bowling - Thursday

Bowling 2016, Warwick Superbowl.

Hi Everyone

Just a reminder for Year 6 students. The Graduation dinner starts at 6pm sharp in our undercover area next Wednesday (14^th) and concludes at 9pm. Parents are invited to “appear” at 8.45 for a dance with your son/daughter.

Then, on Thursday 15th, ALL YEAR 6 students head for Warwick Super Bowl for 2 games of bowling! We will eat lunch AT SCHOOL and then depart for Warwick at 11.30am. 

The school canteen is closed on this day!

The canteen at bowling however, will be open for snacks and drinks – please no more than $15.00 spending money.

We will depart Warwick at 2.30 and be back for a final farewell.

Thanks

Christmas Party and last session with Buddies - MONDAY

Dear Room 17 Parents

our class have requested to have a Christmas Party next week where everyone brings in a plate of food to share and we watch a Christmas movie before swapping our Secret Santa presents. 

Due to so many teachers having to move classrooms to prepare for next year, Monday is the only day we are able to do it. We would really appreciate if you could please provide a plate of food to share on Monday around 12pm - preferably not lollies or soft drink.

We will also have our last session with our Buddies on Monday, so students please don't forget to bring your Christmas Cards for your Buddies!!!!!

Kind regards

Lee Geelhoed

Rabbit Proof Fence - please email if you wish your child to not watch!

Dear Parents,

As part of the History Curriculum this semester, the students have been learning about democracy and how certain community groups in time have experienced  limited citizenship rights. We have organised for the students to view the Rabbit Proof fence movie which focuses on the stolen generation of Indigenous Australians. This move is rated PG as it has adult themes of child abduction. Please let one of the Year 6 teachers know if you feel uncomfortable about your child watching this movie as we can organise another activity for them in the library.
