All students will be walking to and from the pool with parents and teacher supervision.
Due to swimming times children may be eating morning tea earlier or later than the usual time.
Children are reminded that they must wear their school hat at all times and parents should apply sunscreen before children leave home.
Please ensure your child’s revised permission note as sent home last week, is returned to the class teacher asap.

Thank you to all the teachers for their time and effort in getting the children prepared for their time with Peter Kearney and for their concert performance.
