Term 4, Week 8
KAYA, Welcome to Week Eight!
Well, summer has officially arrived and so have the flies! My gosh, they are a sticky bunch... Hopefully, the dung beetles start getting busy. Even though we are winding down, the classroom is still busy with six seasons explanations, novel study booklets, student CV's for 2024 leadership teams positions, and a number of mathematics concepts such as coordinates, scale and compass points to name a few.
Almost there, two weeks to go!
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
- Wednesday 29th November - OLC Christmas Concert
- Friday 8th December - OLC Colour Run and Last day of School
To coincide with the Christmas Concert on Wednesday, both classes will be open from 3:30pm - 5:15pm for you to come and check out the fantastic portraits that the students have created.
VINNIES HAMPER APPEAL
Each year at OLC we take time to be thankful for our blessings and to assist those local people in need by contributing to Christmas Hampers distributed by the St Vincent De Paul Society.
This year boxes will be in the shared work areas of the school and families are invited to contribute specified items.
Please look out for the labelled boxes in the following areas in the next few weeks and give generously to support others in what can be a difficult time of the year.
- K & PP: Christmas goodies, chocolates, bonbons, puddings, decorations, small children's gifts, and stocking stuffers etc. No lollies or candy canes please!
- Years 1, 2 & 3: Pasta sauces, meal kits, rice, biscuits, crackers, sauces, jams, condiments, (basically any non-perishable good food, which can be used beyond Christmas. No baked beans or tinned vegetables please 🙂).
- Year 4, 5 & 6: Toiletries, chocolates, tinned fruit, non-perishable fruit juices, nuts, small gifts, pampering items, gift vouchers (Kmart, coffee, etc).
Thank you to those families that have already sent in some donations.
CHRISTMAS CONCERT PREPARATIONS
As you would have read in the newsletter, preparations are well underway for our
end of year concert which will be held this Wednesday beginning at 5.30pm.
Year 5J students are being asked to dress as donkeys - Grey T shirt with headband with donkey ears. Mrs King included some images in the newsletter for those needing some inspiration!
