SUNSMART REMINDER

The warmer weather is certainly here and it’s been great to see so many students wearing their hats! Remember, NO HAT, MEANS PLAY IN THE SHADE. Sunscreen is available in each of the blocks for students to reapply during the day. Students are encouraged to come to school with sunscreen having been applied in the morning. 

ORIENTEERING CLINICS

Orienteering clinics commenced last week for all students. Students have enjoyed taking part and the program offers a great link between PE and important mathematical skills, particularly mapping and coordinate geometry. The next 3 clinics are sure to be a continuation of the fun from Tuesday. 

K-2 SWIMMING Weeks 7 & 8

Thanks to everyone for returning the permission notes. More information about the particulars of the program will come home with your child/ren. 

BOOROWA TOUCH & NETBALL CARNIVAL 

By all reports the carnival was a huge success again this year, not only for us as a school but also for Boorowa and the surrounding districts.  244 touch teams and 188 netball teams from schools across NSW and the ACT took part. An amazing effort from the two local primary schools who coordinate the carnival each year. 

My thanks to all those who volunteered in one way or another, we could not have done it without you. Special thanks to the Houlihan family, who left home before the sun was up so as they could set up our spot with the marquee. Congratulations to our students who participated in the spirit of the day and played with enthusiasm and displayed great sportspersonship. Looking forward to heading to Boorowa on the 25th October next year!
