Aussie of the Month
Kira is a dedicated student who challenges herself
to improve in small ways every day.
She has shown great personal courage in
overcoming her personal fears, whether it’s
participating in a sporting game where balls may
hit her, or presenting in front of her classmates.
At our recent camp in Alexandra, Kira attempted
every activity despite not always being comfortable
about doing so.
Her drive to extend herself and willingness to try
new things makes her a great role model to her
peers.
Congratulations Kira on being our Aussie of the
Month.
Choir Performance
Last week our choir was delighted to
entertain the members of VIEW with a
short performance. The choir sang “My
Grandfather’s Hat and “Waltzing
Matilda”.
Many thanks to Miss Kops and Miss
Bures for their work in preparing for this
event.
Ukulele Club
This term, we have some super exciting news to
tell you - we have started a Lunchtime Ukulele
Club! The school has purchased six very bright
and colourful ukuleles for students to learn and
play. Each Thursday at lunchtime, interested
students will learn how to tune, play simple
chords and read songs together. We would like
to do a short assembly performance to share our
learning with you at the end of the term - please
stay tuned for more details!
Mother’s Day Stall
Thank you for your wonderful support of the Mother’s Day stall last week. We hope that you

beautifully. Thank you to Renee Phillips Kokori and Melissa Clancy for giving up your time
to help on the stall.
