Mural Images

Hello Students,

I trust you’re all well and starting to get really excited about the upcoming trip.

Please find a link below to a folder where we would like you to put images you find from the internet that can be projected onto the walls of the school so that we can trace them for our murals.

MURAL IMAGES

Please find images linked to Australian and Vietnamese sports and Australian animals (cartoon style images might be the most suitable for a kindergarten). If you can please have these uploaded by the end of next week that would be great. Thank you.

Kind regards,

Mr Merrifield

Fundraising:
A huge thank you to everyone who has completed their fundraising and paid it into the school account — fantastic effort! I’ll be emailing each of you individually to confirm your fundraising status.

If you have any outstanding balance, please make sure it’s paid by this Friday so everything is sorted ahead of the trip.

Keep the energy up, team, it’s nearly time to make a difference and experience something truly special.

Thanks Mrs Freeman
