Week 9 Term 4

Flat out like a lizard drinking!!  Can't believe where this term has gone.

In brief:

Eisteddfods: many people had put so much effort in to these - well done.  A few people need to work on getting ready and think about their song from the beginning of the term - a form of "advent" really. In term 4 singing eisteddfods are coming - time to get ready.
Eisteddfod Assembly 1:30 in the hall on Thursday: Representing Year 2 are: Grace, Keira and Caity, who will do a duet with Lars - both had the same song and both chosen.  What is the probability of that?  Representing Year 3 from our room is Harry.
Friday 12th Mass: yes it's our turn at 12:00.  There are so many people wanting to lead - most have a special job and the rest of us are going to lead with our fabulous voices. We would love for you to join us at the last school Friday mass.  I am very proud of how everyone has stepped up and feels comfortable to take part.
Library Books: by Friday please, then I'll get a print off of what we still have lurking in the classroom or at home.
As I didn't manage to collect enough bottles for our junior school rotation Christmas activities, I will try to do this just with the class if there is a chance. This activity uses recycled stuff - as Ben Whitaker's song goes "old stuff, new stuff". Old Christmas cards, wrapping paper - doesn't matter if it is ripped.
Musical Instruments: any still in Room 3 by Friday will be put in the skip.  The selection is slowly dwindling.
Art work: will come off the walls next week. If there is some that you want to make sure gets home safely, please pop in and we can arrange that.  Mrs Donaldson has certainly excelled herself during CRT time this year.  I really appreciate it.  There are treasures to be saved.
Camp $10: could everyone please make sure that this is settled by the end of the week to help Mrs Bennie.  If you did not receive an invoice, you are paid up.
Shared lunch for Thomas: the calendar is so full, and this has crept up on me, so it will have to be Thursday 18th - we'll eat at 12:30, so that we have plenty of time to play.
