School production costumes

Our main lead parts have been organising their costumes this week. For all others in Room 6 please arrange a costume that makes you look like you're from bible times (eg tunics, cloaks,  etc).
If necessary you could visit the Musical society on Russell Street. They have their opening hours on the door but are open sometime around, Wed 11:30-1:30 and Sat 10:30-12:30

Please be getting this organised over the holidays

Mufti day

A reminder to everyone that we have mufti day this Friday Sept 23rd. Please bring a gold coin. Cheers!

Round the clock race

We are hoping to have a couple of kids teams in the Round the Clock Race on Friday night as a part of The Blossom Festival Celebrations.  This is the best race in the world if you ask me and a unique opportunity for all to take part in a world class race!

For all parents interested in helping out with managing a school team - please could you let me know! This really only involves about an hour of your time!

Alternatively why not enter the race yourselves!!!

For all interested children there will be a meeting at school and a note sent home - please return this asap to confirm your child can enter and if you can help assist with a team. Thanks!
