Hi Parents,

We welcome Taylia Iriks to the classroom for the next 3 weeks. Miss Iriks is currently in her second year of studies at ECU, Bunbury. The children are already familiar with Miss Iriks after 5 distributed days last term. We wish her all the best during her stay at OLC and please make her feel welcome if you pop in to the classroom.

SCIENCE

We are beginning a new science unit this week and to complete a couple of experiments we will need some of the children to bring in a torch. We only need 1 torch between 2 students, so not everyone needs to bring one in but if you have a torch handy, could you please send it in with your child tomorrow.




Congratulations to Imogen Phipps for being awarded a Merit Award last week. Well done Immy!




Enjoy the rest of the week!

Until next time,







Mr Jones

Leadership Teams 2024 Please take the time to go through the different roles below and have a discussion with your child about what would be a great fit for them.  We will begin to create a one page CV tomorrow. This will include some background information such as their name, birthday, faction, years at OLC, special achievements / milestones (First Holy Communion) as well as their 3 top preferences. With each preference, your child might like to write a sentence as to why they are interested or would be a great fit to that particular team. Please note that next year there will be a mid-year swap of teams so that each child will be apart of two teams over the year. Your child may also like to have an appropriate photo of themselves to insert into the CV to jazz it up.     Team: Spirit Spies and Wellbeing   Staff: Mrs. Meyer, Mrs Delane & Fr.
