Week 7

Week 7

Wishing all our wonderful Dad’s out there a Happy Fathers Day. We hope you have a great day and you’re kids are spoiling you. Thankyou to everyone who purchased a Father’s Day gift from our P.T.A. we really appreciate your support.

School Production - Little Red Rocking Hood
All kakano classes have begun to practice their dance for the production. Our dance is to the song - The Purple People Eater. So far the children are doing amazingly well learning their dance. Here are some of the important dates/information you need to know.
Weeks 7-8 - Classes continue to learn their dance routine at school during school time with Mrs Trask (our production director)
Week 8 - Bring your costumes to school in a named bag and give it to your teacher. Your costume is a plain black t-shirt and plain black pants or shorts. Your costumes will stay at school until after the production is completed. Costumes need to be at school this week as we have full dress rehearsals next week.
Week 9 - Full dress rehearsals at school during school time. This is our practice runs for the production next week. They will all happen during school time.
Week 10 - Production week. The production will take place on Wednesday 28th and Thursday 29th of September in the school hall. On each of these days there will be two performances - a matinee (during school time) and an evening performance. The production will be about an hour long. Our classes have been split into two groups and your child is expected to be at both performances.
Group A - performs on Wednesday 28th - classes include K2, K5, K7, K8
Group B - performs on Thursday 29th - classes include K1, K3, K4, K6
We are not selling tickets to our school show through the office this year. Tickets can be bought online from Eventbrite from tomorrow. There is only a certain number of tickets for each show so once they are sold that is it. The price is $6.67, a funny price because we have to add GST and Eventbrite’s commission on top of the $5.00 we charge.

Play Provocations
Our focus changes for the next two weeks to Digital technology. The children will be giving instructions to a partner to follow a series of steps combined with real life scenarios.
Recycling
Please keep the recycling materials coming into school. It is amazing to see the different things that can be made from cardboard boxes, bottle tops and other recycling materials.

Upcoming Events - For your diary
On Friday 28th October at 9.00 am we are celebrating Grandparents Day. Grandparents and Grandfriends are welcome to come and spend the morning with us starting with Mass in the church followed by morning tea and activities at school.

  1. We have dug out a pile of extra black shorts that we can bring in as spares for the production if that would be helpful (no spare tees though)
