Term 3

Welcome back to another busy term! 


This term we have several things happening.

Week 5 


Parent Information Evening 


This was held in the BER room on Tuesday 20th August at 2.45pm. The topic for the session was Reading and what we as teachers do in the school and what you as parents can be doing at home. There was a lot of really good information and handouts. If you would like a copy of the handouts please drop in to the front office and they can provide them.

Book Week 


The theme this year is Read Across the Universe. Children are allowed to come to school dressed as their favourite book character on Thursday 22nd August. There will be a parade for the children who have dressed up and parents are welcome to come and watch.

Watch this space as I will add some photos of the children all dressed up. 


Room 4 Assembly 


Our assembly will be held on Friday 23rd August from 8.40am in the undercover area. Children need to come to school dressed in joggers, shorts, a rashie and a cap. Children need to be at school by 8.15am so that we can get down to the undercover area and get organised. It would be fantastic to see you all there as the children have been working very hard to learn their items.

Week 6 


Wattle Day 


Friday 30th August is Wattle Day. We will be doing some activities in class relating to Wattle Day and having discussions about where Wattle Grove Primary got it's name.

Week 7 


Sports Carnival 


On Wednesday 4th September from 12pm the Kindergarten and Pre-Primary students will be involved in some tabloid activities to earn points for their faction. We need some parent helpers on the day, so if you are available, please let your class teacher knows. All spectators are welcome and it would be great to have lots of parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles there to cheer the children on.

The whole school sports carnival is on Friday 6th September. The Kindergarten and Pre Primary children will participate in running races on the day.

Please continue to check the blog as I will add photos and information throughout the term.
