Dear Moms and Dads
Welcome to another week!
Well done to all our dads who braved the rather chilly conditions last Friday evening and camped with their children in the school garden.
The children had a ball, damp and all!!!!!!
We have been asked to do another camp-out towards the end of the year so watch this space and we will see if we can organise another one later on in the year.
Congrats to all those who rode ‘The Argus.’ Hope you are not too sore today!!!!!
Parent interviews start next week. Please remember to put your name down in a slot that suits you. The rosters are up outside the classrooms.

FOOD PARCELS
It has come to our attention that there are families amongst us that are really struggling financially and are battling to put food on the table. We would like to extend a hand of generosity if it is possible, by donating tinned and non-perishable food stuffs. Donations can be left in the Mandela Box and I will distribute as needed.

OPEN DAY
We will be having our Open Day on Saturday 15th March from 9am-11am. This is for prospective parents, those who are interested in sending their children to our school or who would like to view our school. Please let friends and family know about this day so that they too can have a share of our fabulous school and all that it has to offer our children.
The school will be set up so that the children can do some art activities and play in our fantastic garden, while their parents chat to the teachers and learn more about our school.
