Athletics Carnival

The Primary Athletics Carnival will be held on Thursday 26th

of July (Term 3 Week 1). Students in years 3 to 6 will be re-quired to wear their full sports uniform. Alternatively, students may choose to wear their sports shorts with a t-shirt that rep-

resents their house colour. It is also essential that your child wears sunblock and a school hat. Students must bring a bot-

tle of water to drink throughout the day.

Book Club Online Orders.

Have you ever thought of ordering your child’s Book Club

online. The next issue of book-club will be issued early next term and online is the easiest and most secure way to place your order.

Parents and caregivers are invited to the school on Open

Day to visit classrooms, attend the Book Parades, view the fantastic Art Show and visit the Book Fair.

The annual K-4 Book Character Parades will be held on Tues-

day, 7th August. It is always a pleasure to see so many stu-

dents dressed up on the day as their favourite book character.

Many book characters are everyday people that wear

everyday clothes, such as Greg and Rowley from Diary of a

Wimpy Kid, Billie B Brown and her best friend, Jack, EJ12-

spy girl, Ruby Lee, Jack Stalwart, Ella and Olivia and many

others.

dress up as book characters on the day.

Book Fair:

The Book Fair will run over Weeks 2

and 3 and contains a wide variety of books for sale which range in price from approximately $6 to $30. Specialty items, such as book sets, may be higher. There

will also be a selection of posters and novelty stationery available for purchase.

A percentage of the sales will go towards new books for

the library. This event has been a huge success in the past thanks to the generosity of parents, students and staff. We look forward to your support again this year. A book fair

brochure and further information will be available in Week 1 Term 3.

In the lead up to our celebrations, the students will have the

opportunity to participate in the colouring-in and book- mark competitions.

Art Exhibition

This year our annual Art Exhibition will be

held on Tuesday 7th August to coincide

with our Book Week and Education Week

celebrations.

The exhibition is a wonderful event where we celebrate

art across the school. There will be artwork on display

from our Talented Art Program students as well as a

selection of art from various students in each class.

Premier’s Reading Challenge

Just a reminder that the 2018 Premier’s Reading Challenge

closes in August. All completed PRC record sheets must be

returned to Mrs Landow or Mrs Brunet by 21st August.

Congratulations to all students who have entered the

challenge this year.
