T1, Week 1
Welcome To 2024
What a fantastic start to the 2024 School Year we have had in the Primary Department! It was lovely to see all our Year 1 - 6 students return to school on Monday and quickly get into their learning. It has also been very exciting to see our youngest students begin Prep and Kindergarten on Wednesday and Thursday. A huge thank you goes to our Prep, Kindergarten and Learning Engagement staff who have worked so hard to make our students feel welcome. As I have walked from class to class this week our students have been busy learning and I look forward to seeing all they will achieve this year.
Primary Awards
During Term 1 we will be very busy preparing for our school musical Finding Nemo Jr. In order for us to facilitate rehearsals there will be no Primary Assembly in Term 1. We love to celebrate the achievements of our students so we will present our Primary Awards during Primary Lines each Monday morning at 8:50am in even term weeks. Parents of award recipients are warmly invited to join us for this short Primary gathering in the COLA. If your child is receiving an award you will be contacted by the school the week before. Please see award presentation dates for Term 1 in the table below:
Week | Date |
Week 4 | 19th February |
Week 6 | 4th March |
Week 8 | 18th March |
Musical
For all musical updates please refer to Music News.
Clubs
We are so blessed at MCS to have many break time Clubs that our students can be involved in. As we are working very hard on our musical this term our choice of clubs will be slightly different for Term 1. Students are able to choose from the following:
Day | Club | Break |
Monday | Ministry Team (Stage 3) Lego | 2 |
Wednesday | Bike Club (including Kindergarten) | 2 |
Thursday | Bike Club (Stage 1, 2 & 3) | 2 |
Thursday | Public Speaking Club | 2 |
Thursday | Leadership | 1 |
Friday | Chess | 2 |
We are looking forward to a great year ahead with our Primary families and wish you all a very restful weekend.
Regards,
