3-6 Urban Camp

A reminder that all medications are to be handed in to Andrew by tomorrow, Tuesday the 4^th in a clearly labelled ziplock bag. All medications must come to school in the original packaging, with pharmacy instructions outlining your child's name and dosage required. We can not administer (prescribed) medication that does not have those specific aspects on the packaging. Any over the counter medications must be outlined on the medical form that was sent back to school. If this needs to be updated, please see Andrew asap.

 With Nina Mazz being away, we have been forced to make a change in terms of the staff attending. This means the staff going away on camp are Andrew, Chris and Kellie Flavell. We will meet with the students about this to ensure that they are feeling comfortable.

Student Support Group (SSG) Meetings

If you child is normally involved in SSG meetings and you have not received your time for the meeting next Tuesday, please contact the school as soon as possible.

Parent Teacher Interviews for Reports

Term Two reports are going home on Friday the 14^th of June. This term we are having parent teacher interviews on the 19^th of June in order to allow parents time to meet with classroom teachers to discuss their child’s academic progress. Interviews can be booked through UEducateUs from Monday the 3^rd of June after 5PM.

3-6 Hockey Tournament

Our Grade Three to Six students had a great time at the hockey tournament. By all accounts, many smiles and lots of laughs were had with the students walking away with a a couple of wins under their belts. A big thanks to Chris for taking the team and to Brett who volunteered to umpire.

Covid, Colds and Flu

We are well and truly into that time of year when people are getting sick. We are experiencing an increase in reported Covid-19 cases throughout Victoria and our school community. Please keep your child home if they have any cold and flu like symptoms, even if your child is testing negative, they are required to stay at home until symptom free. If your child tests positive, please ensure they stay home for at least 5 days and they are no longer symptomatic. We appreciate your support as these steps will help us all stay well.
