Dear Families,

The end of the year is fast approaching, lots of activities are happening here at the school. We are enjoying our swimming program this week, we have Bethlehem Bazaar coming up next week and then our grade 3/4s are off to camp.

Please remember that our whole school end of year movie trip is happening soon also – please remember to give consent on PAM or let the office know if you are not using PAM so that all children get to go to the movie. I would hate to have to disappoint a child on the day.

Grade 6 have their graduation ceremony coming up too as well as their Year 7 transition sessions and their lunch – again this needs permission ticked on PAM and each child needs to be picked up at Café Qu Bah. Remember to send the note in so teachers know who each child is going home with.

We also have our Nativity play and Advent Mass coming up also – this is a very special and important part of our school tradition and in the life of the Catholic Church. Christmas is often the highlight of the year for many children and families and the Christmas story is a joyful one with the birth of baby Jesus.

I have a HUGE thank you to say to Shane Wilson, who removed the crate of aluminium cans form the
school last week. We are so lucky at this school to have such a fantastic parent community. Thank you to Shane for your hard work last week and thank you to all of our parents who help and support the school in any way, big or small.

Have a wonderful week ahead,
Sally
