Term 4 News

Dear Year 2/3 Parents/Caregivers,

This term our focus is on Advent and Christmas.

At the end of the year there will be a Christmas concert and we will begin practising for that soon. We will keep you informed about requirements for this.

The whole school will be involved in the “Footsteps” program on Thursdays, weeks 3 to 7. Students will continue formal sports lessons on Wednesdays therefore sports uniform will need to be worn on Wednesday and Thursday.

We are including a copy of this term’s daily news topics and healthy living homework. Please continue to support us with encouraging your child to complete these tasks.

Our class liturgy for this term is in week 7, November 27th.

We would also like to welcome back Jason from his trip overseas and look forward to hearing about his travels.

Some of you would not know that Kiara King has been unwell and we have missed her. We hope she is feeling better this term.
Thankyou

Mrs Pitt
