Wow we have made it to what has felt like the never ending term. So much change this term has impacted everyone’s energy levels and we are all ready for a well earned break. Please ensure you engage in as many opportunities to connect with each other over the break as you can because the kids’ social network is really important given the disruptions they have had this term. We are however pleased to hear this week that we can recommence assemblies and our morning gatherings next term. There are still restrictions in place for adults who will need to adhere to physical distancing expectations and at this stage we still need to limit the number of parents on school grounds.Thank you for all for supporting our school’s efforts in adhering to expectations related to Covid-19 restrictions this term. 

Farewell

This week we say farewell to Mrs Amanda Pease and Mrs Rhylie Mattheisen as they start their maternity leave. We are thoroughly looking forward to welcoming more Bennies Babes to our community. Mr Daniels may have his baby arrive anytime from today so he will also be off for a couple of weeks into next term to enjoy this special time with his family. We wish all our expectant parents the best with the new additions to their families. We certainly appreciate what a blessing a new baby is and know how much each one is already loved.

Holidays can be a good time to have a check in with school uniforms etc. so please check all uniforms are fully labelled and that uniforms are in good condition. We are seeing lots of shoes with white soles which are not part of our uniform and this needs to be rectified before next term. 

Please have a safe, restful and happy break from school.

Cheers

Penny Collins

Principal
