Hi Everyone,
Welcome back following what I hope was an enjoyable WA Day long weekend. The extra day at this time of year just seems to be a really good opportunity to charge the batteries. Here’s hoping too that the break helped to dodge some of the illness prevalent at the minute.
A lot of people have commented on the rejuvenated Pre-primary Playground. It does look fabulous! This is the third time over the last eight years that the P&F with the support of parents have worked on it. The first time involved extending it down along the walkway, increasing the size significantly. The second time involved changing the sandpit areas and adding the beautiful ‘jetty’ and the boat. This third time involved removing the boat, the hedge, much of the dirt and more. Painting, replacing the boat with the car, replenishing the white sand, and adding plenty of wood chips really make it look great.
Significantly, on each occasion, some of the parents involved had their youngest child in Pre-primary at the time, so their benefit from these wonderful initiatives would be limited. I think that is a fantastic example of people paying it forward, for the benefit of future generations. There are parents involved who didn’t have a child in Pre-primary but who had a child in Kindy and they too are making an investment into the future. These are significant examples of our community reaping the benefit from the hard work and good will from those within. Holy Rosary would not be the place that it is, without you. Thank you, thank you.
And last but certainly not least, we wish the 120 parents going to the 80s night tonight a FANTASTIC time! YAHOO!
We hope to see you at next Friday’s Year One Assembly.
Have a great weekend,
Mark
