Chief Minister’s Reading Challenge
All SJV students have been registered to participate in the 2024 Chief Minister’s Reading Challenge. At school, and at home, students are encouraged to read 30 books by the end of June (this includes books that are read to them/ shared).
Each student from Year 2 to Year 6 has a recording sheet in the library that they are encouraged to fill in to show the 30 books they have read. I will keep a note of the books we read in the library from Kinder to Year 2.
ELC NEWS
Happy Birthday to Jordan M and Zac M
We had a wonderful Mother’s Day celebration this morning. Thank you to all those mothers, grandmothers, aunties and special friends who were able to join us for breakfast and spend some time in our ELC classrooms. We wish all the mums in our community a very happy day on Sunday.
Our Wednesday fruit shop is always a wonderful learning opportunity. As well as celebrating our ‘Mystery Fruit’ each week, we learn about how things grow, colours, shapes, tastes and textures. We practice counting and we work out what weighs more, or how many syllables are in the name of each fruit. Earlier this week, some of the children were talking about seeing mushrooms growing in the wild, so we took the opportunity to look at lots of different types of mushrooms and to talk about only eating safe mushrooms that we get from the shop and to never eat any that we find growing.
2026 ELC Enrolment Tours
Thank you to the many families who attended our Open Day last week. We will also hold tours on Tuesdays in May from 9:30 – 11am. Please contact the ELC if you would like to book a tour. If you know any families with children approaching preschool age, invite them along to have a look at our amazing ELC. Online enrolments are open via the ELC page of the school websites.
St John Vianney’s Open Days
St John Vianney’s will have an Open Day every Wednesday in May from 10:30am to 5pm.
SJV Athletics Carnival
The ELC will be joining St John Vianney’s for their athletics carnival on Friday 16 May at Chapman Oval. Thank you to SJV for providing a bus so that our ELC children can join in the fun. Please check your notes pocket for permission notes. Please ensure the children are wearing appropriate running shoes with their ELC uniforms on that day. The ELC will provide a fruit snack for each child during the carnival.
