Reading is a skill we need for life. All the reading done in this challenge will help at school and at home.

Caption This Competition
A new feature of the newsletter is the 'Caption This' Competition. We will post a photo of one of our animals and parents or students can send in a caption to accompany the photo. The winning caption will be featured in the following newsletter each week and a small prize given out.
Please send all captions to niccola.pearce@catholic.tas.edu.au or students can drop them into the office.
Our first 'Caption This' photo features our alpaca, Licorice.
