5J OLC

Welcome to the final week of the term! I can't believe we are already entering into Holy Week and will soon be celebrating Easter with our families. I hope you all have a fantastic break, wherever you may be, and we shall see you all save and sound on the other side of the holidays. QUOTE OF THE WEEK IMPORTANT REMINDERS Swimming Carnival: As you may already be aware our Swimming Carnival will take place this Thursday 1st April at Margaret River Leisure Centre. The start time is 10am, please refer to school's previous email for further information. MESSAGE from MRS LEAHY -  Please help us construct Pre-primary Icebergs!!!

We are planning on finishing our unit by constructing 2 ‘icebergs’ in the pre-primary area to see how the sun effects one sitting in the sun and the other sitting in the shade.

 G'day all! What an awesome weekend we were blessed with. Hopefully you were out and about and enjoying the sunshine... QUOTE OF THE WEEK   5 J PARENT REPS 2021 A massive thank you needs to be extended to Kelly Sweet and Kim Archer who have put their hand up to be the class reps for the year. It would be great if we all offer our support as much as we can throughout the year because they are also the parent reps for one of the Pre-Primary classes. I think they both deserve a round of applause! PARENT / TEACHER INTERVIEWS I will be conducting parent interviews in Week 8 for those of you that would like to come in and have a chat. Each block is for 15 minutes, however, interviews are approximately 10 - 12 minutes long. This allows me a couple of minutes to get ready for the next interview. Please check your email for a shared 'live' document where you will be able to book your spot online. Please use your last name in the document. If you have any troubles, please let me know

Howdy folks! What an awesome day yesterday! Pumping waves all day, light winds to enjoy a drink down at Yallingup in the evening and saw the International Space Station move through the sky at about 7:05pm. I hope you all had a great weekend! QUOTE OF THE WEEK SWIMMING LESSONS Swimming lessons started today and I have to say a huge thank you to you all for being extremely organised. A couple of points to ponder: 1. Students can wear thongs to and from the beach but will need to put shoes back on before going home. 2. We will have a snack at 12:00pm before leaving school at 12:20pm (you may want to pack something extra). 3. We have our lunch when we arrive back at school at 1:40pm. ALTAR SEVERS NOTE Your child should have brought a note home last week asking for volunteers to altar serve at our Parish Masses. In volunteering, your child will display a terrific sense of community and leadership to help Father Francis in this way. ALL children must return a note to indicate if they are in
