Heading towards the end of term
As we approach the last week of Term 1, we are reflecting on the learning achieved over the last 9 weeks. Your child has made new friends, connected with new teachers, learned new ways of working and has been learning content from the Australian Curriculum in a range of subject areas. We are so proud of the achievements so far and are excited to see how we can build on this learning next term. We have just under a week to go and we are committed to finishing strong, maintaining our routines and learning.

One exciting variation to this will be the Easter Hat Parade on Thursday 28 March at 9:15am in the Hall. Everybody is welcome, and we look forward to seeing you there as we celebrate on the last day of Term together. 

NAPLAN – Years 3 and 5
Well done, to all our superstars who took part in NAPLAN for 2024. Across the last two weeks our students have demonstrated their understanding in literacy and numeracy tasks. I have been particularly impressed with the resilience and independence our students have shown.

NAPLAN is a point in time test which helps our school celebrate areas of success and helps schools identify areas of improvement. Thank you to all the families for helping students remain calm and relaxed during NAPLAN testing. Congratulations to all Year 3 and 5 students, you should be proud of your efforts. 

Parent Teacher Interviews
Term 1 Parent/Teacher Interviews will be held on the afternoon/evening of Tuesday 26 March, to provide parents the opportunity to speak with their child’s teacher about their progress so far this year.  Interviews will take place in the school hall and have been scheduled to run in 15min sessions from 3:15-8:00pm.  Details on how to book an interview have been previously emailed.   If you are not able to book a suitable timeslot on this afternoon or you require a longer interview time, you can email your child’s class teacher to organise an alternative time. To make a booking, click on the link: https://eq.sobs.com.au/pt3/parent.php?schoolid=70103 .

Bookings close Monday 25 March at 9am.

Active School Travel

Walking Wheeling Wednesday’s

Wednesdays at Craigslea, are Walking Wheeling Wednesdays!

What amazing creations we saw this week when some of our students and families got involved in our Bling Your Ride event. Thank you to the P&C who donated some of the prizes on offer.

Next Wednesday is the last opportunity for your child’s class to take out the Golden Boot Award for March, which will be presented to the class with the highest % of bike riders.

When we return after the holidays, April’s Golden Boot will be awarded to the class with the highest percentage of scooter riders.

And mark in your calendars our upcoming events in Term 2:

How will you actively travel to school next Wednesday?

Have a fantastic last week of fun and learning and have an amazing holiday making memories with family and friends,

Natalie
