This week brings with it much preparation and excitement as we journey towards our Year 6 Exhibition at the end of next week!  Year 1 are also presenting their own micro exhibition tomorrow, which we will share in next week's newsletter.

We continue to be inundated with enrolment requests for next year. To help determine class sizes and capacity for interested families,  can we please ask that if your child is not returning to Holy Trinity for the 2024 school year (other than the current Year 6) please:

This information is  also really important as teachers are beginning to look at the class configurations for 2024, as discussed in last week's newsletter. If a parent has a particular concern regarding the placement of their child/ren in classes, this should be written in an email to me by tomorrow- Friday Week 4, 3rd November, and this concern will be considered seriously. However, there are no definite guarantees regarding parent requests as there is much to consider as stated above.  Please note, teacher requests are not to be included in these emails. Also requests from other years will need to be sent again if they still stand for the 2024 year. 

A HUGE thank you again to all involved in the planning and organisation for our school fete.  There are many more details about this below including a delicious recipe to try for our cake stall donations!  Thank you also to our families who I know are out in the community selling our raffle tickets!! This effort is very much appreciated! I would also like to make  particular acknowledgement to our incredibly generous sponsors:

A Message from our Dawson st Gardens community: 

Could we please remind parents/carers to keep to the roads and carparks and not drive up the kerb and on to the park.  We're pleased to say that parking in the area has greatly improved and the majority of drivers respect the gardens and don't park illegally. As the fete is coming up next month, we thought a gentle reminder might be timely.  It might not seem much, but the weight of vehicles contributes to compaction of the soil which over time can inhibit the ability of the roots to access water and air through the soil. Thank you.

Please see below for all the important information shared at our BYOD night-  although this was directed at our Year 2 families in preparation for Year 3, it is also useful information for all our parents and carers. 

Have a wonderful weekend and a peace-filled week ahead with your beautiful families.
