Good morning! Welcome to another week of beautiful weather in this gorgeous spot we live in. I hope that you managed to get out and about and enjoy some of it?!

Week 6 Update

Good morning parents, Hello and welcome to another fantastic week here in 4D...I hope that you enjoyed the beautiful warm weather over the weekend. The beach was amazing and regularly remind me that I am blessed to live in one of the most gorgeous places in the world!! A huge thank you to all of the amazing parents and grandparents that have made themselves available to come in and help us create our Uthando dolls. Last Wednesday we met the ladies from Bunbury who will organise our dolls to be sent to the children. It was fascinating to listen to them explain just how they will get there...once they get to Perth they will be sent to Fremantle and then they will be packed into the smallest corners of a very large ship that is heading that way and generously discounts the price of transport. Our dolls will be among the 3000 that will be sent over to brighten the lives of children. We had a lovely afternoon tea in which the students could show off their dolls to their parents and ...

Good morning parents, Welcome to another amazing week here in 4D. I hope that you stayed cool in the heat of Saturday...Binningup Beach was the place to be and thank goodness there was air con in the holiday house! It gave me a good excuse to start my reports rather than get schooled in the finer art of ping pong! We had a fantastic excursion to Eagle Heritage last Thursday and another huge thank you to Sherylee, Noon, Anita and Prue for coming along to keep us safe and make sure that no birds of prey carried anyone off! The students will be using this information that they gathered to begin planning for the bird of prey information report that we will be starting next week! Our day was then finished off superbly with an artist workshop conducted by Alan Meyburgh...after a slight change to plan he came up to school and we had a great time working in the hall on creating a sculpture of a bird using a variety of recycled materials. I was blown a...
