Parent teacher interviews Our parent teacher meetings are scheduled for Monday 8 April and Tuesday 9 April. Please book in for a time through our school website. The booking code required is: 9t2mg Please also note, these meetings are not required unless you have specific information you would like the class teacher to know about your child. If you have been communicating regularly with the teacher, have recently had an IEP or PLP meeting, or have nothing specific you need your child’s teacher to know, you do not need to book an appointment. Easter Hat Parade/ Grandparents Day We are looking forward to welcoming Grandparents into our school on Thursday 11th April. For more information, please see details later in News- letter. Mini Fete Day Mini Fete Day is fast approaching and the Year 6 students are busy planning some great activities for their K-5 friends. A Mini Fete Newsletter was sent home last week detailing the stalls and ac- tivities on offer and also requests for donations to help make this day a suc- cess. It will take place on Friday 12th April and is a great way to finish what has been a very busy term. The Mini Fete is always a highlight for our stu- dents and a great way for Year 6 to fundraise for their end of year celebra- tions and gift to the school. Carpark A reminder that parents should not park in the school carparks. Teachers begin arriving from school just after 7am and we are finding on a daily basis that parents are dropping students off to OOSHC in the Jones St carpark. Please park on the street to walk your child in so students are not walking through the carpark so we can keep our students safe. SMS attendance We have started sending SMSs to notify absences of student absences each day. Parents can reply via SMS or send in a note or use the school app to provide a reason for absence. Please be aware that even a note via the app or email is sent in that day, you may still receive a SMS about the absence. This is due to timing of emails and app notifications received and processed by the class teacher on that day.

OoSHC
Firstly, on behalf of OSHC staff and children, congratulations Aerobics teams in winning gold at your very first representative
tournament ... the best is yet to come.
Children may come home talking about clubs at OSHC. Our afternoon routine has changed a bit to avoid having almost 60
children in the same space to mark rolls. We continue to experiment with creating different spaces on different days for
children to experience construction, arts n crafts, drama, dress-ups, board games, cooking, sports, outside group games,
french and guitar.
Moving into the colder months, parents please ensure children have a jacket in their school bags with their name clearly
marked, not just on labels, but in the lining for easier identification. OSHC does have a separate lost property to school, so if
your child leaves an item behind at OSHC, we either endeavour to return it, or is located in a blue bin near parent sign-in
desk.
When children love their pets so much they can imagine and sculpt using different medium to re-create; kindies practice
their handball skills with older children; and one child even conducted a survey for an afternoon of staff and children's fa-
vourite songs for his 'song portfolio' (is this a DJ in the making). That's why the staff of Camp Australia love their work; get-
ting to hang out and harness the diversity of your children.
Don't forget school holidays are just around the corner, and to register, your nearest Camp Australia vacation care is
Belmont Christian College or Barnsley Public School.
