Week 10 Term 3

What's happening?  It's more like what has happened!  Sorry for the delay in posting, but I have been at the theatre each night and despite sitting around for hours, am unable to get on to the internet.  Need a lesson from Julie about how to do this from my phone.
Mercy Day turned out to be a great get together for our 2 schools and the weather held despite and awful forecast.
Athletic Training Tuesday and Wednesday.
All children have presented their speech eisteddfods.  What a wide variety of topics. We had a really interesting morning.  Well done everyone.
Eisteddfod Assembly is at 1:30 on Thursday in the hall. Those presenting their speeches in the Year 1 and 2 section are: Ana Flannery, Tadhg Reilly and Charlie Donaldson - very hard to choose just 3.
Relay Race to the Clock, Friday - Year 3 & 4 team: the children got together to put names down to compete in this race. A permission slip and information has come home today - needs to signed and back to me by Thursday morning.  The information is also in the school newsletter - this has the correct time for meeting 4:30pm. There are several year 2 children really keen - should the team be short of competitors I will ring these people.
Cinderella Rockafella: we have been working very hard putting the staging/acting
 together for the show this week. The singing sounds fantastic - keep up these songs in the holidays, and we now all know where we will sit or stand on the stage. Because we are all characters going to a ball, we have been talking about who we are, so that we can really act our character on the stage.  You would be surprised at who is attending this ball!! Thursday is the day to have our costumes at school. Several people already have theirs here.  If you are bringing a special dress that you may need in the holidays, you may take it home otherwise it would be great to have them all hanging in the corridor ready for the BIG NIGHT on the "Alexandra Stage" - quite a step up from our school hall.
Wishing everyone a fantastic and safe holiday. Thank you to everyone for helping your children with their learning this term.  Hoping that the weather stays settled so that we can enjoy outdoor spring weather.
