Triple Zero Hero Award As always there is a lot to

celebrate here at Lalor

Primary School!

Congratulations to one of our

Year 6 students, Sukriti who

has shown outstanding

initiative and responsibility in

a stressful situation. Sukriti

took the initiative to ring for

an ambulance last term when

her father was unwell. She

has been presented with a

TRIPLE ZERO HERO award to recognise her ac-

tions at an official ceremony.

Well done Sukriti the school is very proud of you!

Up Coming Event - Lalor’s Got Talent There is a buzz amongst the students with excitement

over the preparation and lead up to Lalor’s Got

Talent. The students are busy practising and

preparing their items for the traditional Lalor’s Got

Talent spectacular to be held on Thursday June 23rd

on the last week of this term. Students are able to

present items individually or as a group and discuss

these with Ms Ralph or Mrs Van Oorschot.

We may even see some of our students showcasing

our new ukuleles during this event.

Jump Rope For Heart. Skipping has really taken off this term with the

development of skills in preparation for the Jump

Rope For Heart fundraiser that is also scheduled for

the last Friday of this term. Not only is this a great

fundraising event for a very worthy cause it is also a

great way to build fitness and coordination. Keep

practising everyone.

BREAKFAST CLUB SUPPORTING STUDENTS

DURING NAPLAN TESTING

During NAPLAN testing week, our Breakfast Club Program served just

over 55 breakfasts over the 3 days to the middle and senior school. It was

fantastic to see so many students attending Breakfast Club to enjoy a

healthy nutritious breakfast to fuel their bodies and get their brains ready

for testing.

Here is some of the feedback we received from students:

“It refreshed my mind in the morning and got me more energised when I

was doing the tests. It made me so really relaxed”.

Elen – Grade 5 student.

“The food is really healthy and delicious. Having breakfast made me feel

ready for NAPLAN“. Jakeh – Grade 3 student.
