I hope everyone who went to Woorabinda had a great time (and we are all glad Luke got to join us for the excursion on Friday!). We are looking forward to having you back this week, alongside those on holiday who are returning. It was a very quiet week in the classroom without you!
The highlight of last week was, of course, the excursion to IMAX and Melbourne Museum. All three galleries were great - if only we had had more time in them! We could have spent hours more exploring - we got through 600 Million Years in Victoria, the Human Body and Mind, and First Peoples exhibitions, as well as our viewing of Unseen Worlds at IMAX - which was definitely the highlight of the day for many in Cycle Three! We had several compliments from the public about how courteous our students were, which was really pleasing to see and hear. I was really proud of 46A and the way they conducted themselves, while also having a really good time.
Now for the reminders for this week:
Monday - Book Parade. Come as your favourite book character. There will be a parade in the morning for those in costume.
Wednesday - Year 5 have production rehearsal, so be prepared with your words and choreography in your mind, ready to go.
Non-day-specific reminders:
The Path - There is a path outside our building which runs along the end of Wendy's portable. There is a gap of about a metre that is not paved. We have been asked to ensure students and parents are not using this path as it is a) a trip hazard, and b) that metre of unpaved space gets quite muddy in the wet weather.
School shoes - Friday proved that students do own black school shoes! Please make sure your child wears them to and from school. They are allowed to change their shoes for break time and PE once they get here, but it is really important that they are in full school uniform when arriving and departing.
Notes and Money - Year 5 has Summer Sport money due this week. One or two people also have district athletics money still to come in.
Absences and Lateness - We've had a few weeks where many in 46A have not been feeling 100% - if they have been away, please make sure there is a note in the diary or one on paper for me to file to explain their absence. Same goes for lateness - please make sure you have taken your child to the office and then down to the classroom with their late pass signed by you.
On a bright and happy note, I am in the process of updating our flickr photostream! Lots of new work going up this weekend, as well as some photos from the excursion. If you are interested, click here to see what we've been up to! Lots more to upload, so keep checking back!
Enjoy this beautiful weather, and I'm looking forward to a brand new week with you all on Monday!
Ciao for now,
Ang.
