Team Rubicon Skateboard and Scooter Day

On Tuesday, we were fortunate to have a full day with Dom from Team Rubicon who ran a skateboard and scooter day for our classes in Years 1 to 6.  Once the children were equipped with elbow and knee pads and helmets, they began learning all about how to control the scooters and skateboards and practised lots of skills.

Attendance Matters

This week, our whole school attendance was low at 91.1% and with your help, I would love for us to meet our target of 96% next week.  Our winning class was Year 4 who were so close to our target of 96% but just missed out on an extra playtime (try again next week!) and they won some new stationery on our Attendance Wheel!

We hope you have a super weekend - the weather is going to be a game of two halves with a rainy day on Saturday and a sunny day on Sunday.  I am going to be having a meal out with my family and Mrs Shirra is going out for lunch with friends.  Whatever you decide to do, we hope you have lots of fun doing it.  We will see you bright and early on Monday morning - our doors open at 8:40am ready for learning to begin at 8:45am.  Let's try to have a perfect week of attendance so we can smash our target of 96%!
