Term 1 Week 3 Date: 11th February 2016

Congratulations to all who participated in our swim-ming carnival this week. Also thank you, especially to our many parent helpers who timed swimmers throughout the day. A huge thank you to Ross James, for his planning and management, the carni-val ran so smoothly that we had time to spare. I look forward to my role as team organiser for our District Swimming Carnival on March 19th. It's increasingly busy in the lead up to our Country Fair. We greatly appreciate your support and hope for fine weather for the 27th. Please help by selling as many raffle tickets as possible as this support alone can contribute to 25% of the total profits and $2000 cash first prize will be going home with someone on Saturday. Extra ticket books are availa-ble from the front office. We need some strong volunteers to help with set up (Friday afternoon) and pack up (Saturday after-noon). If you can spare a couple of hours that would be much appreciated. Volunteer’s declaration – attached to this week’s newsletter is a declaration required by law for vol-unteers who work with children. If you currently volunteer at our school or are planning to this year, please complete the declaration and return it to the front office. Volunteers include members of the P&C and the sub committees , home reading help-ers, band helpers, canteen volunteers and class-room helpers. Please support the school in its com-mitment to child safety. Meleesa Smith Relieving Principal
