Easter Break
I hope everyone enjoyed the Easter break and that the Easter bunny came to visit you all. On Thursday before the break, Room 5 went on an Easter egg hunt. The children had made their own Easter baskets earlier in the week. Once all the Easter eggs had been found, we did some Mathematics with the Easter eggs. We sorted them into colours and predicted which colour had the most and which had the least. We counted how many Easter eggs were in each colour group. Then we shared the Easter eggs so that everyone got the same amount. Here are some photos of us hunting for eggs.

Harmony Day
On Wednesday 23rd March we celebrated Harmony Day by having a parade. It was wonderful to see so many students, teachers and parents dressed up. Harmony Day celebrates Australia’s cultural diversity.
It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone. It is a day for all Australians to embrace cultural diversity and to share what we have in common. The central message for Harmony Day is that ‘everyone belongs’, reinforcing the importance of inclusiveness to all Australians.
Term 1 / Term 2
We are almost at the end of Term 1! It has been a very busy term. School finishes on Friday 8th April. Term 2 commences on Tuesday 26th April. I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing holidays and I look forward to seeing you all next term.
ANZAC Day
Wattle Grove Primary School will have an ANZAC Day service on Friday 8th April commencing at 9am. Parents are invited to attend. We need some flowers to make wreaths to lay on the day. If you could donate some flowers, please bring them to school on Thursday 7th April.
Parent Interviews
Just a reminder that Parent Interviews will be held on Wednesday 6th April. The interviews will be an opportunity for me to discuss your child's progress. As I have so many parents to meet with, I have allocated a maximum of 10 minutes per interview. Please be on time to your interview. A letter confirming your interview time will be sent home with your child. Students are not encouraged to attend the interview. Please be aware that school closes at 12pm on this day to allow the interviews to take place.
