Swimming - Day 2!

Another fantastic day at the swimming pool on Tuesday.

Swimming Day 2 on PhotoPeach

Just a reminder to parents that children only need the clothes they are wearing (i.e. their school uniform) and their togs and towel.  Some children seemed to have spare tops, shorts, singlets etc in their swimming bags.  This just confuses the children.  Please keep things simple for your child.

As you know Room 12 is having a BOOK LAUNCH on Wednesday 11th December.  We are making a movie about Pirate Polly.  Here are some stories about Pirate Polly.

Penny's story was "Pirate Pat got a big hole and Pirate pat was crying and sighing!  And Pirate Polly
plugged the ship!
Xavier's story was "She went tap on the drum."
Xavier is getting absolutely brilliant at finding letter sounds on his ABC card...he even found the
word 'the' all by himself!
As you know this Friday is a MUFTI day.  There is no theme - just normal mufti clothes.  Please take swimming into consideration when your child is getting dressed for Mufti day - make sure they are easy clothes to take on and off please.  The weather is supposed to be lovely on Friday - why not come to school dressed in summer beach clothes?!?!

Remember to bring a grocery item (instead of a gold coin donation).  
Here are some good examples of what you can donate.
No perishables please (fruit etc).
