Dear Families and Friends,

This week we introduce our Student Representative Council for 2020 and our Choir leaders. Congratulations to our SRC Representatives; Georgia Green and Jacob Young, Benji Jakobi and Marybelle McKay, Mitchell Churly and Sariah Bunting and Ricky Ryan and Ashley Rusu. Also, we congratulate Milla Flynn and Dexter Bolwell in their role as Choir Leaders.

Next week we will celebrate Harmony week. The continuing message of Harmony Day is 'Everybody Belongs' and its annual observance aims to encourage inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural background, and celebrate core Australian values. Our P&F are organising for our children to enjoy food from different cultures. Notes with more information have been sent home this week. As a whole school we encourage children to come to school wearing orange next Friday.

This week we have been focusing on saying Bullying. No way! as Friday the 20 March 2020 is National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence. Classes have been participating in activities and thinking about what they can do to support the national day of action.

The link for 'Conversations for Learning' is now open. Please click on https://sobs.com.au/pt3/parent.php?schoolid=864 to make your appointment for your child with their teacher. It is an expectation that your child accompanies you to the meeting with the teacher to discuss their learning goals for the semester. If you require a meeting with your child's teacher without your child's presence, please organise this outside this time.

The sacramental program with the Parish will begin on Sunday the 29th March in the school library from 5:00pm until 6:00pm. For further information please contact Father Giovanni.

Tomorrow at assembly we will present the sports captains with their badges.

Grow in Wisdom and Love
