After School Care Thank you everyone for getting the forms back to the office so quickly. Mrs Latta will now send that information to Asset Management who will put the OOSH to tender. We may have this part completed by Christmas. The successful tender then has to complete some government requirements and this could take up to three months. At this stage, we hope to have our OOSH operating from term 2. We will keep you posted.

Swimming Carnival 2019 With this newsletter are notes for the 2019 Swimming Carnival that takes place on 1st February- two days after the children start school. There is NO COST involved with this activity- it is being paid for by the school. However if notes are not returned by the due date, your child will not be permitted to swim in any events.

Regatta Day- 18th December No more clues- someone guessed what was happening so all children have been informed. For our regatta day this year we have ordered some rides. We will also have sprinklers operating on the top oval. This event is FREE and only for CURRENT students of our school. We know that some high schools will have finished their school year by then but high school students are not to be on our site during this time.

Swimming Lessons Thank you everyone who returned their notes and money in by the due date. The list of what to bring and special instructions can be found on our Facebook page. Burning extra energy will make the children hungry so please pack some extra fruit or sandwiches.

Swimming Fun

Swimming lessons have begun and the students could not be more excited. Abi, Alisa and Larni have come pre-pared with their goggles this morning.

Late to school It is a LEGAL REQUIREMENT that an adult sign children in to school when they are late in the morning, even if your child is only 2 minutes late. If you do not attend with your child, it will automatically be classified as an unex-plained absence and may result in a referral to the Home School Liaison Officer (HSLO).

Arriving before 9am We currently allow a limited number of early arrivals once parents have completed the necessary paperwork. From 2019, we cannot offer this. Chil-dren are not to be on site before 9am, when playground duty begins. Please start arranging now for your child’s before school care. If there is a one-off emergency, and you have contacted Mrs Latta, we may be able to accom-modate your needs for that day, but cannot guarantee we can meet your request.

L.S.T.T Band News Monday Rehearsals Congratulations to Larni who attend-ed her first combined band rehearsal on Monday afternoon. Larni was one of many of our young students who have started to attend rehearsals and is making a step toward to their first performance with L.S.T.T. Concert Band.

Lost property We have an abundance of jumpers and other items in our lost property area between the Year 4/5 & 5/6 classrooms. Any items left at the end of term will be cleaned and used in our sick bay. Please put your child’s name on EVERYTHING. It makes it so much easier to return property to its owner.

P & C 2019 Everyone is welcome to come to our P & C meeting on the 22nd November. Many of our P & C members are step-ping down this year so we would love to welcome some new families to the P & C. Come along this week to see how it all works.
