A few reminders for our final week.

The Christmas play and awards evening The Christmas Play and Awards Evening will be held next Wednesday the 6th of December at  5.30 pm.  Please bring your child to the lawn area outside of the hall by 5.15 pm.  They will need to line up there and wait to walk in as a class group. They do not sit with parents.    The children are to wear Christmas colours.  Please make sure that your child has eaten, had a drink and been to the toilet before they enter the hall.  The Pre primary children do not receive awards.  Instead they will each receive a small book to recognise the amazing effort that each and everyone of them have put into their first formal year of schooling.   The session should not take longer than an hour and a half.  St Vinnies Box   Please bring in something for our St Vinnies box as soon as you can.  This is such a good cause.  Final day A reminder that the Pres do not go to the beach next Friday with the older children.  Instead we will have a fun day here at

Multicultural Morning

Dear Parents, This term we have been looking at cultures other than our own.  The children have shown a lot of interest in 'The World' and we feel this is important to follow up on their inquiry as there are very few cultures other than "Aussie" represented here at OLC.  As we all know this is not the case in larger towns and cities any more and our children need to be aware of and tolerant to traditions and customs other that the ones we have here in our little town of Dunsborough. On Thursday the 30th of November between 9am and 11am we will have a special "Around the World Day" with the other Pre Primary class (PPB).    For this occasion we would like to set up a number of 15 minute activities that will give the children a glimpse into other cultures.  We have already secured a spot for Spanish castanet playing and a Spanish Dance presentation.  We would love some parent volunteers to share their knowledge of another country with us.  Art
