Welcome back to Mrs Sillis as she returns this week from her long service leave and Mrs Hailstone and myself return to our “normal” duties. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful staff at Good Samaritan and the parents that I have been involved with as they welcomed Mrs Hailstone and myself and supported us as we kept the ship afloat in Mrs Sillis' absence. Thank you 6 Gold for your flexibility and positive mindset during my time off class. I have missed you and look forward to jumping back into the classroom next week.

A friendly reminder that chewing gum is BANNED from school. Please talk with your child about the importance of not bringing it in their bags as it is very tempting for them and their peers and this leads to it being shared. We need to consider that not only is this a school rule but that sharing of foods is discouraged due to allergies.
