Welcome to 5H Everyone! 


Welcome to 5H everyone! 
We hope you have all had a relaxing and peaceful holiday and enjoyed your precious family time!

Below are a few messages about key events and information that we would like to share with you before our Parent Information Evening on Tuesday the 11th of February.

SPECIALIST TIMETABLE INFORMATION

                                                                            folder on this day)

HOMEWORK
There will be no homework in Week 1 and 2 as we will be discussing our new whole school format at the parent night.

WHOLE SCHOOL MASS
On Friday, the 7th of February the whole school will be attending mass with Father Francis to welcome in the school year. As Mass is scheduled to begin close to 9.00am, we will be leaving the classroom at 8.40am, as soon as the morning bell sounds. If you arrive after this time, you will need to drop your child off at the church. Please ensure your child has sunscreen on before they come to school, that would be greatly appreciated as we will be walking both to and from the church.  Parents are most welcome to attend the service

CALLING ALL BOOKS THAT ARE COLLECTING DUST!!
We have purchased some new novels for our class library, however it is still a little bare. If you have any books that are no longer being read and are collecting dust, we would greatly appreciate any donations. 


New Bell Times
Doors open: 8:30
Recess: 10:40am - 11:00am
Lunch: 1:00pm - 1:40pm
End of School Day: 3:00pm for everyone, including pick up lane & bus.

Gathering Time
Gathering time begins at 8:30am until 8:40am. Please ensure that your child is at school by 8.40am. If you arrive at school after 8.40am parents are required to attend the office first with your child to sign and pick up a Late Pass and then give this to the class teacher.

New Policy for Early Leaving
This is a new OLC policy regarding early leaving - If you wish to collect your child early from school, you are required to go to the office first, collect a Parent Pass and then hand this to the classroom teacher as you collect your child. 

We are excited for the year of learning ahead of us with your children!
Please email or see us if you have any questions or concerns throughout the year, we will be more than happy to help.

Term 4, Week 8

Week 8, Term 4 Wow, can you believe we are here already? The children are doing such an incredible job of finishing off some great work from the term, creating beautiful Christmas pieces for our residents at the retirement village and getting their “Creative” on with their portraits in Art. Just a few reminders for the last couple of weeks. Advent We are currently celebrating and learning about the period of Advent. Advent is a period of spiritual preparation in which many Christians make themselves ready for the coming, or birth of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Celebrating Advent typically involves a season of prayer, fasting, and repentance, followed by anticipation, hope, and joy. We celebrate Advent not only by thanking God for Christ's first coming to Earth as a baby, but also for his presence among us today through the Holy Spirit, and in preparation and anticipation of his final coming at the end of the age. The children have been preparing an Advent Calendar of Random

Term 4 Week 7

  The following recount was written collaboratively by Paige, Georgia, Flynn,  Tieg, Justin, Jasper, Jeremy, Joe, Mahley and Noah. It is Part One of our Cape Naturaliste Experience!!   On Monday the 16 th of November we went to the historical Cape Naturalise National Park.  We travelled by bus and it took 11 minutes to get to this magnificent location!       First of all, we met Josh Whiteland, who is a Wardandi Custodian of the local region.  Wardandi means “forest people by the sea.” He calls the land "country".  Aboriginal people see “country” as being like a mother.  It gives to them what they need and protects them.  Respect of country is the backbone of Noongar people. Josh learned all of his knowledge from Aboriginal elders in our region.  He encouraged us to make a “connection to country” where we can become “cultural custodians” thus developing our own identity and sense of belonging to the place in which we live.   Josh led us on a brilliant bushwalk (approx

 Week 9, Term 4!  Great job on making it to week nine guys. Only a few more days to go and the kids will be soaking up that Summer Sun.  What a great term we have had. I honestly feel so blessed to have worked with your children this term. They are a brilliant bunch of souls who are going to soar in Grade Six.  Just a couple of reminders for this week.  Christmas Concert : As mentioned previously, the Christmas Concert is taking place this Tuesday 7th December. It commences at 6pm, so please  ensure that your child comes to class by 5.40pm.  As a class we will walk down together and into our places, while you can find a nice spot on the hill to settle back and enjoy the show. St Vinnie's Donations: A reminder that we are collecting Christmas food and decorative items...if you can please have them in  by Wednesday , we would be very appreciative! Many families have contributed, however if you haven't as yet it is a great yet simple way to give back during the festive season. Hel
