Week 1 - Term 4 Update

Good morninng,

 Welcome back to Term 4. I hope that you found the break restful and relaxing! It is our last term for primary school so we will be making the most of it!!
REMINDERS

 Family Camp - It is on this weekend!! Please make sure that all adults attending have signed the Code of Conduct note sent home at the end of the term and returned it to school by Wednesdaya 11th October.

 School Uniform - We are now in the Summer uniform which is the dress for the girls and white shirt and shorts for the boys. 

 Just a friendly reminder about sneakers and hair cuts - these need to be predominantly white. Hair must not go past the collar and fringes should be clear of the face.

 St Mary MacKillop are very strict around their uniform presentation so I am keen to get the students focused around their personal appearance ready for attending high school.

 Human Development - We will begin these lessons on Friday this week. I will send home a hard copy of the note outlining what we will be covering during our lessons and the permission slip for you to sign and return.  

 Lions International Peace Poster Contest - The Year 6 students will once again be creating a submission for the Peace Poster contest. The students will have three weeks to complete their poster. The winning submission will be announced at our assembly on Friday 3rd November.

 Here is a link to the Contest website which explains the process and shares some of the winning submissions from previous years.

A Message to My Future Self - A Huge Success

Dear Parents, I would just like to say again, thank you to all those parents that were able to come and enjoy our presentations last night. It was wonderful to have so many parents able to make it and to view the amazing work of these students. A big thank you to Alie Smith for organising the food and drinks - we couldn't have done it without you! A massive thank you to Mrs Amie Meyer for all that she has done to make this idea a reality. The success of this event has ensured that this will become an annual event at OLC and it wouldn't have been possible without Mrs Meyer's ideas and dedication to helping the students achieve. Thank you for my lovely gift and kind words, they are both appreciated. Have a wonderful day, Mrs Delane

As the oil is absorbed by the body, it is a sign of how the confirmed person is filled with the
