Dear Parents,
Welcome to Week 7! As we head into this week, I just wanted to share a little bit about what Mr Steven encouraged the Year 3-5 students with, in our worship session this morning. It was a great message about the power of the tongue, that I’m sure we can all learn from. Our words that we use can have such an incredible impact and within moments, we can switch from using them for praise to using them for trash (James 3:9). Our students listened beautifully and were encouraged to imagine little ‘Buckingham Palace guards’ placed next to their mouths to help guard what is allowed out (Psalm 141:3).
Here are a few important dates coming up over the next week. Please also continue to check your class blog.
Friday 27 November
Kindy Assembly at ELC
Year 6 bike excursion to Sorrento Beach
Assembly for Years 5 & 6 to farewell 2020 Semester 2 House Captains and announce those for Semester 1 2021.
Saturday 28 November
First Lego League Competition held at Carramar Campus
Monday 30 November
Worship for Years 4 & 6
Year 5 excursion to Parliament House
Kind regards,
Jarrod Heglund and Hannah Lockwood-Jones
NOTE FOR PARENTS
At the end of Term 4 our school day will finish early.
The ELC students will finish at 12.50pm and Yrs 3 – 6 students will finish at 1.00pm.
There is no supervision after 1pm and we ask parents to collect their children promptly.
Family Picnic from 1pm – 2pm on the Primary Oval
Parents and students from K – Year 6 are invited to join in for a family picnic on the Primary Oval. The School will organise some fun and games which include 2 bouncy castles and 2 water slides. BYO picnic, blankets, shade, sportswear that can get wet, towels, sunscreen, hats, etc. If parents wish to purchase an ice cream, snow cone or coffee, vans will be on site. Please note that this is strictly a non-alcoholic and smoke free event. Please consider Covid-19 social distancing measures.
As this is a community event, children need to be supervised by parents at all times, including on the School’s play equipment. Although teachers may be in the area they will not be available for supervision during this time. Students must have a guardian present when attending this event.
We hope you will enjoy this time with friends across the primary school and we look forward to a fun afternoon to finish off the year.
ROADWORKS ON DOVERIDGE DRIVE
We have been advised by the City of Joondalup that necessary asphalt resurfacing works will be taking place on Doveridge Dr from 23 November and should be completed within 8 weeks. The extent of the work is between Curbur Rd south to Winster Close.
Thank you for your patience during these roadworks.

YEARS 3 – 6 Attention Parents who have purchase items from Campion for 2021
It has come to our attention that an item on the Resource list, namely Book Covers – Exercise 9 x 7 Pkt 5, are too small and should be A4 book covers. If you placed your order with Campion before Friday 6 November, please bring the unopened small book covers to your class teacher on the first day back in 2021 and we will swap these for the correct size. If you ordered after Friday 6 November, you will have received the correct size.
Thank you for your understanding
