Dear Craigslea Community,

A fabulous time was had by all who attended the disco on Friday night.  It was great to see so many of our families join us created a community atmosphere on the night.  A big thank you to our P&C for hosting the night and to our school staff who also supported the event.  I know the leadership team and I, whilst run off our feet, loved serving at the canteen and talking with students, parent and carers.

North District Athletics Carnival
On Thursday and Friday of this week our Craigslea athletes headed to the North Districts Athletics carnival.  Our team of athletes represented our school with pride.  Congratulations to everyone for their efforts. 

Upcoming Events

We have an exciting fortnight ahead of us as we celebrate Science Week (Week 6) and then Book Week (Week 7).

This year we are planning lots of opportunities for our students to experience the wonder of science to celebrate National Science Week.  We have planned a home project challenge, lunch time activities each day of the week, focussed lessons in our classrooms, guest speakers and collaborations with Craigslea State High School and our Sustainability group.  We will launch Science week at a special assembly on Monday at 9:00am

More information will be sent via Schoolzine and posted on Facebook.

School Opinion Survey

This year’s School Opinion Survey is open until 16 August 2024. Parents, caregivers and students are encouraged to participate. Your insights will help us know what our school does well and how we can improve. Participants will be emailed a link to access the survey the week before it opens. Survey responses are confidential. The survey usually takes less than 10 minutes to complete. More information can be found on the School Opinion Survey webpage or by contacting the school.

I encourage parents and carers to take the time to complete the survey and provide us valuable information as we commence planning for 2025.

Lost Property
Our lost property baskets are full to overflowing with jumpers, lunch boxes and water bottles.  If your child is missing any of these items, please encourage them to check lost property which is located outside the Cleaners Room near Year 6CPA.  If you are visiting the school, I also encourage you to take a look at the baskets.
