Dear Parents and Carers,
This Friday 13th May is Do It For Dolly Day and our school has registered to participate in the recognition day. Do It For Dolly Day is a date created by the family of Dolly Everett in response to ongoing teasing and bullying online. The message of the day is to ‘Be Kind’ and to “Speak even if your voice shakes’ meaning we all have a responsibility to speak up if we are aware of people being unkind online or in person.
The Junior School Council are supporting the day and encouraging all staff and students to come to school dressed in something blue and bring a $2 donation. JSC have purchased blue iced donuts from Waterview Bakery and each child who supports the day will be offered one for morning tea. An option to purchase a pair of Dolly Day Butterfly socks has also been offered with orders to be finalised by Wednesday afternoon. If students are wanting to order socks after this time, this will be OK but they may not arrive in time for Friday. Students are encouraged to wear their socks on Friday and they can be worn each day as part of the regular school uniform.
This week we have had a confirmed case of chicken pox who was onsite on Friday 6th May. Symptoms include a rash, raised lumps that may or may not be sore and itchy, a temperature and feeling irritable or unwell. If your child develops similar symptoms, please seek medical advice. Students are excluded from attending school during the infectious period of the disease.
I apologise for the incorrect day stated in the newsletter last week for the upcoming Student Free Day. The correct day and date is Tuesday 24th May. There will be no school for students on this day. The Friday 10th June is also a day where there is no school for students. This day is a Professional Practice Day for staff.
Have a lovely week,
Anna Duncan
