Yesterday the eldest child on each family was sent home with an access code and website link to our school opinion survey. This is an annual process where you have the opportunity to formally give feedback about our school and suggest areas for improvement, if any. Your opinion is valued so please take the time to participate in the survey if you’re interested.

For those who may not know, I was absent from school today (Thursday) and will also be again on Friday. Mrs Cannell will be taking the Prep class tomorrow. I am flying to Wagga Wagga for my nephews Baptism and I am very excited to be his Godmother at this special family celebration. I will be back to school on Monday and look forward to sharing some photos about my journey and special event. Smiles and green dojos to everyone!

Thank you to all the parents who made an interview with me this week to discuss your child’s report progress and to touch base on the learning journey so far. I always enjoy meeting families and sharing your children’s achievements with you. If you missed a meeting time I am always happy to meet you at a more suitable time. Congratulations to all of our Prep students – I am very proud of all of you and know you really are smart cookies. 😎

Invitations to our P-2 circus performance went home yesterday. Please send your child’s costume to school by the end of next week at the latest in a labelled bag. This is so we can ensure all students have a suitable costume to wear on the day. If you would like to help with activities on our prep open morning and help with set up for our circus performance please let me know. The date for our performance is Wednesday 6th August (week 4) at 10:30am. This will also be the same day as our Prep 2015 open morning where families interested in enrolling a student in Prep at Merinda for 2015 can come and see the exciting things happening in the Prep room. Please share this information with anyone you know who may be interested. Our enrolments are being taken now.

School photos were sent home on Tuesday this week. Any students in Prep catching the bus home did not take theirs home in case of any photo accidents. Luckily I believe all photos arrived home safely 🙈
