Remembrance Day Assembly
We held our annual Remembrance Day assembly on Thursday. It was a fantastic opportunity for teachers, students and parents to remember the ultimate sacrifice that our servicemen have made to ensure we get to live in such a wonderful country. Thank you to our choir and the Invictus Youth Choir for your performances. Thank you to Mrs Ford for your organisation of the assembly and for inviting our special guests. Stage 2 and Stage 3 students were honoured to have Mr Gary Robinson and Mr Andrew Wilkinson, Invictus Games 2018 medalists, visit and speak to them about their journey to the games, it was inspiring for all who were there. Thank you to all staff and students for your lovely artworks and for decorating our front gate with poppies.
Kindergarten Orientation
Kindergarten Orientation has been so much fun and this week our pre-schoolers had the pleasure of playing outside. We saw lots of new friendships blossom and the smiles continued from parents and students alike. We cannot wait to welcome them all back this week for more fun and exciting activities. Just a reminder to any parents with children starting Kindergarten next year, we will be holding a morning tea after our orientation session this week from 11-11: 30 am.
School Ambassador Program
This week Mr Hughes had the pleasure of going along to the School Ambassador celebration at Liverpool City Council. Congratulations to Mitchell Ung for representing our school with pride.
No hat, No play!
Just a reminder that we encourage all students to wear hats when out on the playground. This is important to ensure that everyone is protected from the sun. This week teachers will be targeting students who are wearing hats for hero tokens. If you are not wearing a hat you will need to sit in the designated shade area in your playground. Parents, I encourage you to speak to your child about the importance of wearing a hat and support us in our efforts to enforce this rule, for the safety of your child.
Student Leader Speeches
Good luck to all our students in Year 5 who will be presenting their student leader speeches this Wednesday. I wish you all the best in your endeavours. Good luck Year 5!
Christmas Carols
Hammondville P & C along with teachers and students are working tirelessly to prepare for what will be an amazing community celebration. We will be having performances from all classes, the dance groups and the violin group. Get into the holiday spirit and purchase your tickets from the office by Friday 16th November. Together we are trying to raise funds to support us in our playground redevelopments so any support is much appreciated by our school and our P & C.
