High Praise!
This week, I received three emails from people congratulating me on our students' behaviour, manners and capabilities. I expressed to the students today how proud I am of them. They have had a settled start to the term and are working industriously.
Yesterday, we had two teachers from Trinity Primary School, Harden-Murrumburrah visit St Mary's. The visitors watched Spelling Mastery, Connecting Math Concepts and Reading Mastery lessons. They were amazed by the level our students are working at. Mrs Rebecca Cooper commented,
Northern Region Public Speaking Competition
Congratulations to all of our students who participated in the Northern Region Public Speaking competition last Friday, 14 October.
The results were as follows:
We wish Chloe and Toby the best of luck at the Archdiocesan Competition hosted virtually by St Anne's Temora, next Wednesday, 26 October.
Fun Run
Unfortunately, our Term 4 P&F Fundraiser, the Crookwell Community Fun Run, was cancelled due to insufficient numbers. The decision was made on Thursday evening after it became evident that it was mostly only the coordinating committee's children who were registered to participate, along with two other families - a total of fifteen children.
I would like to thank the organising committee and their helpers for the time and effort they put into preparing, advertising and organising this event. I would also like to thank the families that made a donation or offered to sponsor the event - Great Divide Landscapes, Heli Ag Aviation and B Hewitt Constructions.
Next week on Tuesday 25 October at 7 pm in the staffroom, we will hold our Term Four Parents and Friends Meeting. All parents and carers are invited and encouraged to attend this meeting.
Uniform
Next week we ask all children to begin wearing into their Summer Uniform. A hat will be required for the next two terms. If you would like to order one, please order via QKR or contact Belinda. There will be no spare hats available for students to use. If students do not have a hat they will be asked to sit or play in a shady place.
If we get a stretch of cold weather, your child may still wear their full winter uniform.
Kindergarten 2023
It has been lovely to commence the formal Kindergarten 2023 interviews this week. I really enjoy this opportunity to get to know our new students and their families. These interviews allow us to put in place everything that is required to best support our students.
If you have not made an appointment yet, please follow the link in the email or contact Belinda on 48321 592.
The Kindergarten Orientation Day will be held on Monday 28 November, 9.15am - 3.00pm.
