Year 4D OLC

Good afternoon parents, Welcome to the second last Monday of the term! We had a fantastic orientation session this morning with some fun games and a quiz to help the students get to know Mrs Ricciardone and I a little better...surprisingly some of the students I hadn't taught before seemed to know me a little better! REMINDERS - WEEK 8 Christmas Play and Awards Evening  - is scheduled for Wednesday 5th December commencing at 5.30pm. All students are asked to come dressed in their Christmas colours - feel free to wear antler, hats, tinsel...anything that will outshine Mr McSevich! S T. VINCENT DE PAUL CHRISTMAS HAMPER APPEAL – PLEASE HELP!  - Each year at OLC we take time to be thankful for our blessings and to assist those in need by contributing to Christmas Hampers distributed by the St. Vincent De Paul Society. This year boxes will be located in various areas of the school and families are invited to contribute specified items. Please look out for boxes in the f...

Good afternoon parents, Please see below for a few reminders for the coming week. Laptop Intention Forms - These were due today...if you have not already returned your form, can you please send it in with your child tomorrow. I have spares if you have misplaced yours. Stationery - If you can please check in with your child if they need any stationery - please ask them about exercise books...we are running out and won't have any more to give.   Gathering Time - Just a reminder that this is an important time for the students to get themselves organised for the day. It is very helpful if you can get them to school as close to 8.30am as possible. In light of them moving into Year 4 next year, we do ask that you encourage your child to be as independent as possible with getting their own chairs, books and belongings sorted. HOMEWORK - WEEK 7 Reading  - If you can please make sure that your child is  reading out loud  to you each night.  Spe...

Good morning parents, Welcome to the week...I am sure that you are all exhausted after a very busy fete weekend! Thank you to our class reps for all their hard work coordinating everything and a huge thank you to you all for all your hard work! REMINDERS - WEEK 6 Sickness - The dreaded tummy bug (I get so nervous I can't even call it Gastro!) has started to make the rounds here at OLC after having a huge impact at Dunsborough Primary. I am very mindful of how unpleasant this can be to be sick in this way at school so please know that if your child comes to me to mention that they are feeling unwell in the tummy I will ask Mrs Marrell to ring you. I would hate to ask them to wait and then for them to be sick. I am reminding the students to be washing their hands before they eat in an attempt to limit the spread. I do know that it can be very hard to organise at times, but I ask you to keep your child at home if they have experienced any associated symptoms to limit the sp...

Good afternoon parents, Welcome to another fantastic week...the year is just slipping by. My kids have the Friday countdown to Christmas happening already...so not ready! REMINDERS - WEEK 5 Year 4 1:1 Device Parent Information Night - This is on this Thursday 8th November beginning at 6pm. This will give you the information about the device needed for your child moving into Year 4 next year. It would be great if one or both parents are able to attend. Stationery Items - If I can ask you to please check in with your child if they need any stationery items - there are a lot of students needing glue at the moment...they are as rare as hens teeth! Please take a moment to update their pencil case, I do know it is the end of the term but it creates a lot of stress for the students when they don't have what they need and are then relying on others to help them out. Remembrance Day Service - We will be having a small commemorative service on Friday 9th November beginning at 1...
