There are many exciting events planned for this term. Many students are looking forward to the commencement of the running club before school next week. This leads into the Interschool Cross Country held each year in Margaret River towards the end of the term. The Book Week Parade is on Monday, 23rd August and I know students and teachers are already talking about who they will be dressing up as. The theme this year is ‘Old Worlds, New Worlds, Other Worlds’. It will be a great week of promoting books and reading.
The year 4 Adventure days in the local community and the Year 5 camp to Perth later in the term will be a highlight for these students.
A Super Science Circus show is coming as well towards the end of the term for all of our students.
The P&C are an integral part of the school ensuring that we have a canteen running and supporting the school with funding towards resources for students. They are all volunteers and enjoy the social aspect of coming together as a community to fund raise for the benefit of students at Cowaramup Primary School.
To assist the P&C they would like you to fill out the survey below by clicking on the link. Your responses will guide the P&C in their operations to assist in getting more volunteers, days and times for meetings, how to spend the money that is raised for students and finding out the best way to get messages out to parents about what the P&C is doing or looking for!
Please take a minute to complete the P&C survey via this link https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HR3KGSY or the QR code below.
We are asking any parents with Kindergarten students for 2022 to put in their application now if they haven’t done so already. Letters to parents who have applied will be sent out at the end of next week. The number of enrolments impacts on the planning of a growing school in terms of staffing and buildings for 2022.
It is nice to see the sun shining today and our students enjoying participating in games and sporting activities outside.

This will take place every Tuesday beginning 10 August until the end of term from 8:15am to 8:55am out on the oval. It is a great morning for students, parents and teachers to get together and get fit! Please note that Pre Primary students' will require a parent to accompany them.
Please - no dogs brought to Running Club unless tied up and fully supervised for the duration.
Students don't forget to collect your personalised QR code cards from the board and have them scanned after each lap of the oval. Prizes will be given out at the end of the term for students who run the most laps.
This will take place on the oval at 9am. It involves all students from years 3-6. Students have been training hard, running their respective courses each week and are looking forward to the trials.
This will take place at Gloucester Park in Margaret River. Further information will be provided to those students who qualify in the trials.
Dental screening of all year PP, 1,3,4 and Y6 students will be carried out by the Rapids Landing Area Dental Officer and her staff on Tuesday the 31 August on site at Cowaramup Primary School. This is a very simple check of the growth and development of the jaws and identifies urgent cases. This is only for children enrolled with the Rapids Landing Dental service. If you have any queries please email: Rapidslandingdtc@health.wa.gov.au .
We are now in the ART ROOM! Every Friday morning 8.15am-8.45am.
Thanks to all the staff, students and parents who come along despite rain, wind and cold conditions. It's nice and warm in the room at least.
If you aren't already joining us, please pop over, say hi and enjoy some yummy brekky.
Liam Mannion, a previous student at Cowaramup PS was working hard to clear the debris after branches fell on the gardener's shed.
Liam loves his job and many of his previous teachers were delighted to see him and stopped to say hello.
Reminder to all that the staff carpark is not to be used by anyone for pick up / drop off circumstances. It is unsafe for children to be in this vicinity with cars arriving and departing.
We often have external contractors that require access to the school via that area so it is extremely important that extra vehicles do not block that access. Thank you for your cooperation.
THANK YOU to all parents with your timely payments for this Term.
Remember any payments can be made by Direct bank deposit, cash or EFTPOS. Cash or EFTPOS payments can be made in person at the Administration Office or over the phone. When making Direct Bank deposits please include the student name and year.
