We are all very proud of the performance of the school choir at the last assembly and at the Biggest Morning Tea a few weeks ago. The students were entertaining, and really showed how much they like performing to an audience.
On Friday of next week, we are all looking forward to celebrating NAIDOC day. There will be a traditional Welcome to Country, digeridoo playing and staff running a number of activities throughout the day with students in their buddy groups. Rooms 11 and 12 will also perform for the whole school.
Teachers have been busy writing end of semester 1 reports and you should look out for them in the last week of school. A reminder that they are sent by email with a link to download them. If you have recently changed your email address, please contact the front office with the new details.
Parents with children of kindergarten age for 2022 should be enrolling their children now if they haven’t already done so. Places will fill quickly and getting this information now allows us to plan for 2022.
A reminder to all parents that Term 3 commences for students on Monday 19th July. This is different for many local schools. The school buses will be running on this day for Cowaramup students.
After more than 20 years at Cowaramup Primary School and after seeing so many students go through her Pre-Primary classroom, Amanda Podvrsnik has decided to retire. Amanda is looking forward to this next phase and the exciting opportunities it will bring. During the last week of term, we will have a celebration of her dedication and commitment to the teaching of young children.
Next term Ms Debra Niotakis and Ms Maddie Gaines will be taking leave allowing them to have some extended travel time. I am sure both of them, will enjoy their adventures and return refreshed for the commencement of term 4.
I hope everyone gets to enjoy their school holiday break with family and friends.
