Homework - Due Friday 31st August

From last week:

A big thank you to the PhD students who created and competed in their Family Olympics. 

And a special thanks to all the older brothers and/or sisters, mums and dads, and extended family who got roped in to compete.  I hope it was a somewhat even playing field for all.

Coming up…

1.     New spelling lists – congratulations to all who passed.

2.     We are pleased to report that a good bunch of children achieved an LPB in basic facts.

      3.     Feel free to bring running shoes to change into for cross country fitness.
