TELL ME MORE ABOUT….STUDENT LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
SRC
Each year there are two sets of SRC’s - one for terms 1 & 2 and one for terms 3&4. This way provides more opportunities to be part of the SRC process. This opportunity is for students in Yrs 1 - 6.
Student Clubs
Student Clubs are predominantly student-led. This means that students who have an idea for a club are able to run the club themselves, with some guidance from staff if needed, but most are run independently by student coordinators. This opportunity is for students Prep to Year 6.
Mini Vinnies
Mini Vinnies are a group of upper primary students who give up their time to fundraise for St Vincent de Paul. They sell items such as Zooper Doopers, small lolly bags at recess on Tuesday and then donate the funds raised to Vinnies at the end of the year. Last year they raised nearly $2000. Mini Vinnies also facilitates pantry drives where the whole school is encouraged to bring in pantry items to support St Vincent de Paul services.
PARENT LINK
Parent Link is an ongoing feature of the newsletter. It is an opportunity to identify areas or features of the school that you want to know more about, ask a question or put forward suggestions. These items can then be addressed and answered in the fortnightly newsletter in the ‘Tell Me More About’ section (as above).
DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that you are more than welcome to join us for Farm Days? Parent Help on Farm Day is a great way to not only spend time with your child but to also be part of learning about and caring for our animals, veggie garden and orchard. Classroom teachers will send out a letter closer to Farm Day with details. Farm Day help no longer is just for a session, but is an option if needed, stay for the whole day!
Kind regards
Niccola Pearce
