Week 1 Has Begun!

Good afternoon parents, Thank you for having your children so well organised for the year! It was great to meet so many of you today.

I am sure that they will sleep well tonight...there was a lot to get through!! Homework -  I sent home a copy of the reading log and the 'Letter to Mrs Delane' sheet with your child today.

Your child will also need to bring their water bottle and recess in a zip loc bag or wrapping (in their swimming bag) to bring with them to the pool as we will have a short break there for them renergise between their lessons. Please ensure that your child brings a separate bag for swimming w

Welcome to Year 3

Good afternoon Year 3 Parents, Welcome to the 2018 school year! We are looking forward to meeting you all next week and getting to know the students as we begin the year. We thought that it would be helpful if we gave you some information on the logistics of the first few weeks which may be handy in finalising the last preparations for the students to come to school on Wednesday. Books – if you would like to cover your child’s books, please feel free to do so. We ask that their name is clearly written on the front of the book and that all books are easily identifiable. For example - clearly label handwriting and maths text books.
