SUMMER UNIFORM TRANSITION
Given the warmer weather predicted into September, students may wear their summer uniform on warm dates from Monday 2 September (Week 7). Parents may use their discretion as to which uniform their child/ren wear in the next few weeks, should the weather be too cold or too hot.
We do appreciate parents supporting the high expectations we have for our students’ uniform. A reminder that school shoes must be black leather, and sports shoes should be predominantly white or blue in colour. The uniform policy is to be reviewed by the end of 2024, and we value your input informally, or, at our next P&F meeting in Term 4.
ASSEMBLIES in TERM 3
Our fortnightly school assemblies during Term 3 are held on Wednesday afternoons at 2.35pm.

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR HAS LANDED!
That’s right, we will be hosting the Scholastic Book Fair once again from 2-6 September (Week 7).
The Book Fair is a wonderful way to encourage reading with our students, not to mention stocking up on a few sneaky Birthday or Christmas pressies.
Our students, who are very excited, will get a preview of what’s on offer and complete a ‘Wish List’ to bring home on Friday.
The Book Fair will be set up in the Music Room and open at the following times:
Monday 2 September: 8.20-8.50am and 2.45-3.15pm
Tuesday 3 September: 8.20-8.50am and 2.45-3.15pm
Wednesday 4 September: 8.20-8.50am and 2.45-3.15pm
After the Book Parade
Thursday 5 September: 8.20-8.50am and 2.45-3.15pm
Friday 6 September: 8.20-8.50am
NO BORROWING THIS FRIDAY (WEEK 6)
Due to our students completing their Wish Lists on Friday, there will be NO BORROWING tomorrow. Students were allowed to borrow an extra book last week to make up for this. Borrowing will resume in Week 7.
Happy reading everyone!
