FOUNDATION

Welcome to the final newsletter for term 1-I'm sure you would agree, where's the term gone? Prep students completed an amazing term 1. They all settled in really well in class and have shown such enthusiasm participating in activities across all areas of the curriculum. They have a sound understanding of how our school works and have been busy learning many new concepts and developing their social skills.

Well done to them for putting up a great performance at the Harmony day celebration. Students attended the First Aid incursion and also visited the town library as part of their excursion/incursion this term. Our swimming program has been a huge success with the children thoroughly enjoying and learning a great deal from their lessons.
