QUEENSLANDER!

If NSW win tonight, they will secure their first series win in the last 8 years.  Naturally, I am hoping that Queensland's home advantage at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane can keep their series hopes alive.   QUEENSLANDER! 

Spelling Quiz Postponement Date

The Spelling Quiz has been postponed until Monday 29th July (day one of Term 3).  I will send home a notice to all of the parents involved. 

Many thanks
Nicky Pateman

Clever Eggs! Just for giggles...



The EPIC Rm 18 v Rm 19 Court Cricket Battle Continues...

 After a week of rain and snow, today was the perfect day for a game of Court Cricket.  Although I was out of the class for Term 3 inquiry planning, I managed to sneak out just in time to take these photos and catch out one of the 'big hitters' from Rm 19. 

To everyone's credit, the game was played in good spirits.  Rm 19 stole the victory on this occasion.  Well done Rm 19!    

On a special note, I am really proud of how Rm 18 has been handling themselves over the past few weeks in my absence.  The relievers have been SUPER impressed with your positive attitudes and respect.  Well done guys!  Doing Mrs P proud!
