Thank you to the dedicated crew who braved the conditions and came along - I’m quite sure it was kid pressure that got quite a few of the families here – good work kids! Thanks Ken (Soloman’s Dad) for providing the music and to the dedicated staff who stayed. It was a great night despite the rain (and the sprinklers!). Boardies day It was lovely to see so many children in their boardies last week and a very relaxing way to come to work. Congratulations everyone, we raised $132 for the Surf Life Saving Society. Finishing off the building I’m sure any of you who have ever built a house will understand that once the builders have left the site it can be quite difficult to get them back to fix up the list of things not quite com- plete. I’m working on it! There is quite a list but please be assured, slowly but surely, we are ticking them off. I am also planning, in collaboration with Neil Sivwright, School Council Chair, and two parent representatives, a risk assessment of the whole school site. Once complete I will approach the appropriate authorities (Building Management Works; Department of Educa- tion; Fremantle Council). Temporary classroom We started the year with our year 6/7’s housed in the temporary classroom with great confi- dence that we would be able to keep it for the whole year, this was however, with our fingers crossed behind our backs - there was a small chance it would be required elsewhere. I am please to inform you that I have had confirmation that we can definitely keep this classroom for at least the remainder of 2013. its placement here will be reviewed, based on our student population, for the following year. Long weekend Have a safe and enjoyable long weekend. I look forward to seeing everyone back happy and healthy on Tuesday morning.
