PLAYGROUND DEVELOPMENT – THE GAGA PIT

Blair Venn has overseen the construction of our latest and currently most popular piece of play equipment! With the help of Terry, Rowan Smith, Sam, Keenan and students from the SLC, the Gaga pit was built in record time and meets all the standards of safety and fun. Blair was able to source some essential materials and with the money earned by students running the Favourite Sports Team Dress up Day the pit was built within budget! Competitive Gaga Ball commenced yesterday. Once again sincere thanks to Blair for making it happen.

PREP DINNER AND YEAR 1 SLEEPOVER

This year’s sleepover was a bit on the chilly side but that didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the students, teachers and parent helpers. Everyone had a great time and we would like to thank the children for their wonderful behaviour! Special thanks to Fiona and Bianca for the great organization and parent helper Helen Kaptein who stayed over. The other parent helpers who made the evening a great success were Helen Vickers, Martin Brennard, Rosie Annear, Rebecca Morecroft, Bronwyn Tracey and Kathrin Ward who prepared dinner and Sarah Day, Jennah Millard, Kasey Sinclair and Sian Kennedy who did the breakfast shift. Sincere thanks to everyone.
