Term 2 - Week 3

Hi parents,

NAPLAN week is finally upon us. Rather than make a big deal about it with the kids, home learning tasks will continue as normal. Please note, that a LSCWC is now required each night for their PLD spelling. Could you make sure that your child has checked their spelling with a tick, if it is correct, or a line under the part of the word that they have spelt incorrectly. The LSCWC should be completed in their thin spelling pad.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION
A reminder to all the children who a receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation to hand in the form that includes when and where they were baptised (please remember to include the Parish and suburb).
