Our cover stars this week are our Yr 66s at the Raincliff Camp. I had a great day with them last Thursday, exploring the Taxidermy shop and riding the Train in Pleasant Point. They then topped the day off with a swim in the Pleasant Point pool in the afternoon … mysteriously id left my togs at home  😬

Tomorrow finds many of us down at CBay competing in the Gleniti School Yr 5-8 Swimming Sports. I look forward to seeing you all down there, it’s certainly a full-on afternoon of swimming events. Please take time to read the swimming notice below.

This week is Book Week at Gleniti School. There have been a whole host of different events during the week. My favourite has been the Drop Everything and Read sessions that we’ve been running twice a day. Its allowed me time to pop into the classrooms and read a couple of my all-time favourite books to the students; Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss, and Curtis the Hip Hop Cat by Gini Wade. We will finish off the Book Week with a ͞”Come along dressed as your favourite book character” day on Friday.

I’m really looking forward to seeing all the amazing costumes.Congratulations to our Quick Ripp Rugby side who won the Boys Grade in the competition at Alpine Energy Stadium on the 7th March. Great effort team!

Finally, we have a number of children who are continually late for school. This is extremely disruptive to the teachers. It is important that all children are at school before the bell rings at 9am.  Any children who miss out on the beginning of the day also can miss important information.
