Our Assembly

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Our assembly is on Friday 2^nd September at 9.00 am. The theme for our assembly is ‘Father’s Day’ and as part of our item, the children will be performing a short story. The children’s roles are listed below and if you require assistance or further ideas with your child’s outfit, please let me know.

Your child will need to be at school between 8.30 and 8.45am dressed in their outfits. They can either stay in their assembly clothes or bring their sports uniform to put on afterwards.

Please see me if you have any questions or concerns.

I look forward to seeing you then.

Kind regards,

Miss Karla Lissiman

Our Wonderful Wildlife Incursion

On Monday we had an amazing time at our wildlife incursion! We were extermely excited to met some Australian animals and learn many new and interesting facts. We got to pat a bob-tail lizard, a dingo,  a koala and two pythons, which some children were even brave enough to have around their necks! We had a wonderful time meeting and learning about where each animal lived, their lifespan, diet and how we can look after them.

On Tuesday morning we did an excellent job writing recounts on this amazing experience. Come into our class to check out our wonderful writing!

Mission Markets

Good evening parents,

Thank you to those parents that have already donated for our Mission Market stall. I am reposting this as my previous post has mysteriously disappeared.

This year OLC will be celebrating and participating in the Mission Markets on Friday the 12th of August.

This is a wonderful school event that helps raise funds for our Catholic Mission focus and creates a wonderful atmosphere for the children to have a little fun!

In Year 1L we will be running a lolly bag stall so we are asking for donations of a share bag of chocolates or lollies. (Please ensure there are no nuts). 

If you are able to also donate some small party bags to make up the lolly bags that would be very much appreciated.

I would ask that all donations for the lolly bags are in by Wednesday 10th August so I can see if more items are needed.

If there are any parents that are willing to help make up the lolly bags on the Thursday 11th of August, that would be wonderful!

Thank you for your ongoing support.

Think Mental Math books

Good afternoon parents,

Thank you to all those people who handed in their Think Mentals book last Friday. The children are doing a great job at completing the two units for the fortnight. Over the next two weeks could you please assist your child in completing unit 7 and 8 and hand it back into class by next Friday 12th of August. 

Thank you to all those parents who are giving instant feedback by correcting their children's work. This will be extremely beneficial to developing your chid's mathematical understanding and help them to learn from their errors.

If you have any questions or queries, please don't hesitate to email me.
