Dear Parents,

Swimming lessons have begun! Thank you for having your child/ren prepared with their swimming bag and items. It was an exciting afternoon as we haven’t got out much this year. Let us hope and pray that the weather will give us a full program of lessons over the fortnight. Swimming is such a vital skill to ensure safety around water but is also a fun activity and relatively cost effective. Pools in our council region are free again this summer. The Batlow Swimming Club is calling for new members if you and your child are interested. Please see more details below. 

Thanksgiving/Graduation Mass Thursday 9th December at 10am in the Church. Then .....

Awards Day 11.30am, held outside and will be recorded for parents to view at a later time for their convenience.

Pool Celebration Day

Our Pool Celebration Day is scheduled for Monday 13 December from 10 to 2pm. The funds from Home Cooking and Cake raffle fund the highly anticipated inflatable in the pool on that day. A note will be sent out via Compass in the coming days to seek permission.

Semester Reports

Also coming out via Compass will be Semester Reports. They will be released on Compass on Wednesday 8 December. Reports will be printed on request only. Parents wanting an interview with class teachers are asked to contact them directly to arrange a time to meet either face to face (if fully vaccinated) or online.

Attendance

Teaching programs will be continuing right to the end of Week 10  especially in Literacy and Numeracy. Student attendance is vital in supporting children’s connection to school and promoting future success. Parents are responsible for ensuring their children attend school regularly.
