Prayer

From the Principal

Dear parents and carers,

We are gathering momentum for our school performance and the children were very excited to watch one another dance in a whole school practice on Friday. Below is a request for help with setup on Monday 24th. Please read this to see if you are able to help.

School Reports

Staff have been working very hard with our students to complete assessment tasks to make clear statements on each child's learning on the Semester 2 school reports. These will become available late on Thursday 27th of June to give families time to read them over the term break before our parent/teacher interviews early next term.

School Production Update

We are asking our parent community for help to set up the Mercy stadium for our School Performance on the morning of Monday 24th of June. We will also need help Friday morning to pack up all the chairs, props and stage. If you are able to help, please contact the school office. 

We are still looking for some parent helpers for hair and makeup too! If you are able to help at any or all of the performances, please contact the office.

Donations needed

Michelle from Future Freight in conjunction with Rotary Terang are sending a crate across to Botswana and are asking for the following donations.

Rotary Botswana is in desperate need of baby clothes, up to size 1, any warm blankets and wheelchairs. Rotary Botswana supports the Riverside community hospital and the Dukwi refugee camp.

They always need primary school age books to send to schools in both Uganda and Botswana.

They also collect secondhand glasses and hearing aids.

Any donations for the above items would be very much appreciated.
