Northern Region Cross Country Carnival
I would like to thank carnival coordinator Sally-Anne Croker and our Year One families, led by Reane Strode and Rechelle Naughton, for their outstanding organisation of the Northern Region Cross Country Carnival held last Friday.
Even though the day was cool and drizzly, the event went off without a hitch. I was extremely impressed with all our representative runners and our Year Six helpers.
Congratulations to Sethan Grove (2nd), William Millet (3rd), Chloe Bensley (4th), Sienna Gann (5th), Charlie Tarlinton (5th), Sophia Galland (5th), George Skelly (5th), Sommer-Lee Gann (6th), Archie Foran (6th) and Charlie Cramp (6th) for being selected to represent the Northern Region at the Archdiocesan Carnival on 25 May at Stromlo, Canberra.
Congratulations also to Henry Galland (7th- Reserve) and Bridie Croker (7th Reserve), who are first reserves for their age groups.

Administration
- Change of details: please let the School Office know if you have recently moved, changed your mailing or postal address or contact details. This will ensure we have the correct information for your family.
- Absence: please notify the school if your child is away from school as close to the absence as possible. This can be done through the Schoolzine or SZAPP eform, email or phone call. This will help us to keep our attendance records up to date.
NAPLAN
This week our Year Five and Three students have been participating in NAPLAN testing. It has been great to see the students try their hardest to complete these assessments to the best of their ability.
If your child has been away this week or will be away over the next few days we can reschedule their missed tests for when they return. We have up until Friday 21 May to have submitted all the assessments, apart from Writing which could only be completed on the first two days.
Following is a timetable for our remaining tests.
