22.01.2022 The beginning of the 2021 school year is not far away. Here are some helpful tips to make starting school more comfortable for our new students.

19.01.2022 If you have not already, please see the School Closure letter that is on SkoolBag and was also sent home with the eldest child in each family this afternoon. We are aware that at this time, the following school events are impacted by the state-wide lockdown and will not occur on November 24th: - First Preschool/Pre-entry transition day - Preschool/Pre-entry Info session... - 2021 Preschool/JP Integration session - SRC Tuckday We will endeavour to provide further information regarding these events when it is possible. This week’s addition of the newsletter will now be delivered next Thursday. We hope everyone stays safe and well!

19.01.2022 Year 4-7 Camp starts on Monday. The bus will be leaving school at 8:30am so please arrive by 8:15am to ensure everything can be packed and the group is ready to leave on time. Please remember that children will need packed recess and lunch for Monday only as well as their water bottle and a bucket hat.

18.01.2022 Thank you to those who were able to attend our Term 3 Assembly. It was a unique experience as we hosted it outside. Being underneath the new basketball shade structure gave us enough room so that we could have some parents join us once again to celebrate learning. The Preschool children shared a lovely rendition of ‘A Sailor Went To Sea’ before the R/1 Class presented their History posters about special places. Our 2/3 students taught us about how water travels to homes and different parts of the cycle. We listened to a brilliant thunderstorm created by the 4/5 Class using body percussion and then the Year 6/7s shared their learning about poetic devices. A fantastic effort by all!

17.01.2022 What a brilliant day we’ve had at the School Fair! Thank you to everyone who was able to share the day with us, helped out with preparations at home and pre-ordered. The students did a fantastic job of setting up, running their stalls and putting all their plans into action. We are so grateful for the outstanding effort our students put into the School Fair today and for all the support shown by our wonderful community.

16.01.2022 Tuckday tomorrow is hot dogs. Helper is Bec Weller and muffins are Kylie Pethybridge. Thanks ladies.

12.01.2022 Apologies - The previous post said that there would be no further Milo Cricket sessions due to the next two weeks of cancellations. At this time there WILL still be the final session for the year in Week 8 (3rd Dec).

11.01.2022 The Pre-Entry and Preschool children had their first transition visit this morning. They had a tour of the school, met the staff and learnt about who can help them in our site. They enjoyed their time playing games, familiarising themselves with the JP students, space and equipment as well as getting to know their teacher for next year. What a great morning! We look forward to their next visit!

A skeleton staff will provide supervision but not a learning program for the remainder of this week. Thank you to those who have contacted the school if your child needs to attend today as it important we know who we will be expecting and providing a safe place for other than when they are at home.

08.01.2022 With today's total fire ban we'd like to say a massive thank you to all the firies out there protecting our community We'd also like to give a shout out to ...the Padthaway Primary School who received a One Forty One Capacity Building Grant following last summer's bushfires and purchased fire protection equipment for their community. Not only did the students learn about fire safety, protection and planning, many of the Upper Primary students also joined the @Padthaway CFS cadets as a result! Well done and thank you #standlikestone #onefortyone #communityfoundation #localdonations #localgrants #protectingcommunities #workingtogether #limestonecoast

07.01.2022 Year 4-7 Camp has been a blast so far! With tomorrow being the last day of camp, the students are excited to take on one last challenge by trying their hand at ice skating. Enjoy some photos of our adventures from Monday and Tuesday when we went to Latitude, the Art Gallery, Botanic Gardens and Zoo. More photos in this week’s newsletter!

05.01.2022 Milo Cricket will be going ahead for the final session this Thursday but will only be running until 4:15pm.

03.01.2022 The Preschool - Year 3 Wellbeing Disco was a hit! We had some excellent little groovers and they enjoyed some games of Statues and Limbo before having a dance competition. Thanks to our Wellbeing Ambassadors for their wonderful efforts to organise and run today’s disco.

02.01.2022 Due to Covid there will not be any Milo sessions for the next two weeks. Unfortunately they were the last two sessions so there will not be anymore Milo cricket for the year. Thanks to Miss Duell for taking the sessions.
