PRE-ORDERING ITEMS, SPECIAL ORDERS, EXCURSION NOTES etc. Whilst we understand that children sometimes misplace notes, or even with-hold them from
their parents, we want to be sure that it is understood that we do our best to get information
out there. We share information with families in a range of ways (ie. Newsletter, See-Saw &
Dojo APPS, Facebook Posts, Skoolbag APP, emails, diary notes and paper copies of
information). We can’t however make sure that you get it and read it!
We encourage children from an early age to take responsibility for sharing information with
you and rely on you to follow up with your child based on the other communication you
receive/notice. Our own processes require that the timelines for the returns of notes, money,
consent forms etc must be strictly adhered to. We need to place orders, confirm travel
arrangements and costs, ensure we have consent etc. Late returns or non-replies impact on
other arrangements and personnel – very much a domino effect.
We do not want to disappoint students either, but missing out is sometimes a natural
consequence. Please support us in this and if something is refused because it is late, we are
not being difficult, we just have to manage our own timelines with efficiency.
SAFETY FIRST
We remind students about staying safe on their journey to and from school, whether
they are riding, walking or coming by car. We have noticed that a number of students
are CROSSING THROUGH THE CARPARK often running or riding when there are cars
entering and exiting. There was a near miss the other day when some students
emerged on their bikes from behind the church hall building, riding at speed. We are
fortunate to have footpaths for the students to use so there is no need for them to
access the crossing via the carpark if they are walking or riding independently. We would appreciate you reiterating this message with your children.
HAPPY HAVEN – SURVEY
We hope you haven’t missed your opportunity to let us know your thoughts about
having Vacation Care and Pupil Free Days provided at Freeling by Happy Haven.
We are reviewing the responses provided to the survey which you can find at
https://surveymonkey.com/r/KWC9KXZ
We will communicate the survey data to Happy Haven administrators to see if these
are viable options for future care at Freeling.
JAPANESE CULTURAL DAY
Across the day next Wednesday 14th August, the students from Preschool to Year 7
will participate in a number of different activities and events to support and further
their learning of Japanese. Toward the end of the school day (2:40pm) you are
welcome to attend a performance by the Senior Choir, and a demonstration by GK
Karate in the COLA.

SAPSASA Basketball
Students from the year 6 and 7 classes trialled
and were selected to participate in SAPSASA
Basketball.
The girls team coached by Nicole Smart and
Neroska Perez were mostly successful, winning
4 of their 5 games.
The boys were coached by Jon Wilson. They won 2 games, lost 2 and had a draw.
The students showed great sportsmanship,
supporting each other on and off the court.
A special thanks to Mr Wilson, Nicole, Neroska
and Nisa for taking the time to run trainings
and taking the students and coaching them for the day.
