School Tuck Shop Updates

The School Tuck shop has resumed on Mondays and Fridays.
During Term 3 we will continue to trial the QKR! app on Wednesdays

However, the onsite tuckshop is back on Mondays & Fridays.

Students can place their orders as done previously (writing the order on a paper bag with money included and giving to their classroom teacher on Monday and Friday mornings.)

Literacy: Book Week Dress Up Day

We have many exciting activites planned for Book Week this term from August 17th to August 25th.

One activity will be a dress up day on Thursday August 24th. Students are encouraged to come to school dressed as their favourite book character. Home made costumes are cheaper, more sustainable and encouraged! 

Take a look at some examples for inspiration.
