Light and Dark

It has been a week of both light and darkness. On the one hand we have been enjoying the fun of Book Week - especially the character parade, storytelling in the dark and the science fair, but on the other hand it has been an extremely sad and difficult week with the unexpected loss of our good friend and workmate Glenn White. Glenn was such an asset to both our school and community and Dani and I miss him very much.

The Fathers' Day Stall is on Thursday and the Parents Association always do a magnificent job. Gifts range between $1-$5. Then on Friday, the Prep - Year 2 Fathers' Day Breakfast is on from 8.00-8.45a.m. Please ensure that you have RSVP so that we can cater accordingly. This also means that on Friday morning it will be very busy in the carpark. Parking for our Fathers' Day visitors will be on the grass behind the back basketball courts.

We are commencing our next theme this week 'How the world works' and we are investigating light. Show and Share for the next fortnight will focus on one of our lines of inquiry for this unit - How can light be used? Therefore the children can talk about any way that light is used e.g. party lights, a torch, a laser beam on a remote control etc.

Have a lovely weekend.
