Week 6

 

WHEELS AFTER MEALS

A reminder  from Mr Lee that the wheels after meals roller blading/skate boarding and scooter-ing session for Year s will take place tomorrow (Monday the 24th of August) at lunch time. Those that took part last time had a tonne of fun!  The children should put any equipment such as knee pads, helmets and scooters etc. behind Mr Lee's office in the morning. 

HOMEWORK WEEK 6

As our sports carnival is on Thursday and there is a Pupil Free Day on Friday, homework will be due on Thursday of this week.  As this is a short week, the only set home learning on the grid is 3 spelling activities (1 each night chosen from the spelling menu).  These will be checked on Thursday so please ensure your child completes a task each night, sign the grid and help them remember to bring their Homework book to class on Thursday morning!

Next week they will have new choices for their spelling homework tasks.

 

STAR CITIZEN

A huge congratulations to Max who was awarded 5Hs Star Citizen for our school value of Respect!


JUMPS AND THROWS

Congratulations to all of 5H for using their great “Growth Mindset” to give top efforts in their Jumps and Throws over the past couple of weeks. A special shout out to Mahley, Flynn, Noah and Ellie who were awarded their place ribbons on Friday and will be off to the Interschool competition!

 


FACTION CARNIVAL

OLC’s Sport Carnival is on this Thursday 27th August.  Parent spectators are welcome!  Students are to report to class by 8:40am and we will come down to the faction bays around 9am. The children are to wear their faction shirts on this day and may wear faction colours in their hair or coloured sunscreen.  They can also bring a team mascot in their faction colour! Please ensure that they pack plenty of healthy snacks and a full water bottle for the day. Please return the note sent home last week if you are planning to take your child home at the conclusion of the carnival.  We don’t know what time it will finish but it is expected that it will be  before 3pm, therefore, we need to know who will be leaving or returning to class until the final bell.

 

Wheelie, Walkie, Waste-Free Wednesday

Our Wheelie, Walkie, Waste -Free Wednesdays will commence again this Wednesday and continue for 3 weeks:

Week 6 (26th August)

Week 7 (2nd September)

Week 8 (9th September)

Once again class participation will be recorded and the winning class will receive a free excursion (provided by the City Busselton) of their choice, somewhere within the City of Busselton region.  We are sure 5H would love to vote for that!

 

Pupil Free Days 

This Friday the 28th August and next Monday the 1st of September are pupil free days at OLC. We wish you all a safe and relaxing extra looooooooong weekend!

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 2 Week 1

Welcome back to Term 2! Commencement of this term will mean different things for different families, as you will be choosing to either continue home schooling or to send your child to school. Please be assured that we will respect whatever your decision is. We continue to have your child's best interests at heart and will be sensitive to their needs and feelings. HOME LEARNING In the weeks ahead we will be posting our home learning programme on the blog each Sunday evening.   This will provide details of the work to be completed in a daily Monday to Friday format.   We understand that parents fit home learning around their daily routines and that activities will take different children differing amounts of time. Therefore, there will not be times on our programme.   This way you will be able to adjust your learning sessions to times that work for both you and your child.  There will, however, be scheduled Teams Meetings (both for whole class and small groups).   Thes

 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
