100 days of Kinder

Yesterday Kinder celebrated their 100^th day of being at Primary school. Ms Valiulyte organised wonderful experiences for the children to celebrate this  milestone.

NAIDOC Week Mass

Last Friday Ms Tozer, Alyssa, Elodie and I went to Catholic Educations NAIDOC WEEK Mass and Awards presentation. It was a pleasure to be invited to celebrate First Nations culture and Catholic traditions. Please see information and photos of the celebration in this newsletter.

Hats On

From tomorrow children will be required to wear their green hat for outdoor play.

Dance

Our dance lessons led by Ms Shekiralea and Ms Emily from Bom Funk have begun. The children have a weekly lesson and are learning 3 dances to perform to their families and the school community. Our dance display is held Wednesday October 16^th at 6pm in the school courtyard. Please save this date. It is a highlight of our year.

Book Week- Reading is Magic

Book Week is fast approaching and our character parade is another highlight of our whole school events calendar. Please see details about the events and expectations in this newsletter.

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Classes will be commencing Protective Behaviours Units next week. Each Friday families will receive a Compass email from Mrs McPadden with information about the lessons for the following week. This is a great opportunity to talk about the concepts to be covered with your child in support of promoting child safety and protecting ourselves and each other .  If you have any questions or wish to know more please get in touch with Mrs McPadden (skye.mcpadden@cg.catholic.edu.au).

Our superheroes in Kindergarten celebrated 100 days of Kinder today! We are so proud of the way they have grown in Wisdom, Courage and Peace so far this year.

On Friday July 26^th Alyssa and Elodie represented our school at CE's NAIDOC Week Mass at St Christopher's Cathedral. We congratulate Elodie on receiving a NAIDOC Week award, recognising her achievements in sport and as a competitor who Encourages More.
