Week 4 Is Here!

Hello!

Welcome to Week 4...we are on the countdown to a very special event this weekend and I am super excited!

Just a few reminders for the coming week...

Eucharist - Is on this Sunday 8th November at 10am...please make sure that you are there by 9.45am. We ask that you don't arrive any earlier as the parishioners from the previous mass will be leaving and this is part of our social distancing requirements.

We are aware that a number of families are impacted by the limit on numbers...we do appreciate that many have family members that have travelled a long way to be a part of this special day and it is hard to have some miss out. It has been a  difficult year in this regard and we are truly sorry. We are having conversation at the moment with Amie Meyer and Fr Francis. to see if we are able to have some people bring an extra guest if others are having smaller parties. 

We will get clarification out on this issue as soon as possible!

We feel that the ceremony should be completed by 11.30am for those of you looking to make reservations for celebrations afterwards...please bear in mind this is a best estimate only.

Certificates & Celebration Cakes - We will be having a small family only morning tea at 10am on Friday 13th November if you are able to join us.

Rehearsals and Run Throughs - This week the Year 4 students will be having a number of rehearsals of how the service will run on Sunday morning so that the students feel comfortable and confident. 

On Wednesday we will also participate in a Reconciliation liturgy prior to the students having the opportunity to share Reconciliation on Thursday with Fr Francis at 10am.

We will be walking down to the church on Thursday afternoon to have a rehearsal. We will also be heading down on Friday morning to participate in the Adoration of the Eucharist which will provide the students with a reflective time spent at Church.

Our learning program will continue as normal with a few alterations. Please make sure that you child is bringing their laptop to school fully charged and in the correct uniform please. Hats are really important!

Uthando Dolls - Please note that for this week only, we will be having our session on Thursday morning beginning at 8.45am until 9.45am. If you are able to join us at this time we would as always, love to have you!

A huge congratulations to Isabelle and Theo on their merit awards this week...they have both been working so hard and I am super proud of both of them!

A Couple of Reminders

Go od afternoon parents, Mrs Horrocks has asked for me to post some information about the upcoming Musical 'Go Fish' on Friday 8th June (Week 6) this term.  If you have any questions about the performance, including costumes or the logistics of the musical then Mrs Horrocks is the person to ask! We will be having a short meeting on Monday 7th May at 3.15pm. It would be great if you could make it!  If you are unable to make the meeting, but are keen to help...please let me know.  More importantly she is looking for volunteers who can donate some of their time to assist with costumes, the set and other roles.  If this is something you can assist with, then please contact or see Mrs Horrocks on that Monday. Thanks again for your ongoing support. Times Tables Quiz - Today in class I did a short quiz to check their knowledge of all their tables. As I mentioned in my blog post on Monday students in Year 3 are only expected to know their 2's, 3's,...

Week 5 Update - Hump Week!

Good afternoon parents, For those looking for an embarrassing or dramatic story this week, I am sorry to disappoint!  This weekend has been all about a bit of family time and for me, catching up on a the last two Matthew Reilly novels...knocked those out yesterday so hit me up if you have any recommendations!  I also finished the Will Smith autobiography this week if anyone is looking for a really great read! It has been an interesting week trying to process what is happening here in WA as well as what is happening overseas...I can't even imagine what it must be like for families just like us to be gripped by war.  Like many parents, I am struggling  to explain it to my own children who have some grasp of what is happening but also a child like fear as well...I just don't know what to say? With this in mind, you may have seen on Facebook that as a school community, we are offering families the opportunity to attend a prayer vigil on Wednesday afternoon...
