I would like to acknowledge all of the hard work that has been put into our school oval. Last year the Kerrimuir School Council commissioned a working party to investigate options for improving the surface of our school oval. Lead by Gary Howell the working party of Duncan White, Sam Benson and myself investigated options for improving the surface which
included irrigation levelling and reseeding.
Thanks to the support and hard work over the Christmas holidays of Sam from Benson Plumbing and Mark from the
Groundsman we were able to achieve fantastic results.
We look forward to the whole school community being able to use our wonderful new surface at the upcoming Twilight Sports night.

NOTICES
KPS Fair
Wine, Cheese and Ideas Night! Our KPS Fair is coming on the 11th November, and we need your ideas!
THIS TUESDAY 28th February,
7.30 to 9.00pm in the staff room
Come along and share your ideas for the school fair over
wine and cheese.
This is intended to be a casual, enjoyable evening to get the ball rolling for our
2017 Fair. It will also be a great opportunity for families new to our school to
meet other families.
While we’d of course love any offers of ongoing help with fair planning (however large
or small), rest assured that you can come along to our Ideas Night with no expectation of
ongoing commitment.

St John Ambulance visited our school on Monday the 13th of February to deliver free First Aid in Schools training to ours students. Through the First Aid in Schools program, trained St John presenters led students from all grades through tailored sessions on the importance of First Aid and what to do in the event of an emergency. Our junior students learnt about how to identify when there is an emergency, keeping themselves safe, and how to call for an ambulance. Senior students learnt about delivering CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and the things they can do to
assist in an emergency.
All students have been given a special piece of homework for parents to
complete: we hope you had some time to do this over the last week.
We encourage you to “do your homework” and go online (www.stjohnvic.com.au/quiz) to see how much you know about First Aid.
More information about the St John First Aid in Schools program can be
