www.schoolinterviews.com.au
Our school event code is emqr6. Once you
have logged in just follow the easy steps to
choose times that suit you and your family.
For families who do not have internet
access feel free to see or call Elizabeth in
the office. We are asking for all bookings to
be made by 9:00am Monday 20 June

It’s that time of the year where
we commence our formal process of
enrolments
for
Prep
students
commencing school in 2017.
Students
will need to turn five years of age by the 30
April, 2017. If you have a child who will be
coming to school for the first time in 2017
please complete an enrolment form,
(available from the office), at your earliest
convenience. I would also appreciate it, if
parents would let other families in the
community know that we are currently
accepting enrolments for next year.
New parents
to
the
school
are
encouraged to make an appointment to
see myself for a tour of the school.

SCHOOL CONCERT UPDATE
Well concert preparations are on the way with our
concert date being Thursday 1 September so be
sure to mark this date on your calendar!
Thank you to those parents who have attended our
meetings and joined the concert committee.
It’s not too late to join if you wish to do so our next
meeting will be held on Thursday 21 July in the Art
room at 1:40pm.
This year’s concert will have a movie theme in which
all grades will perform a class item. We will also be
seeking a small number of students to fill in some
other main roles. An audition sign-up sheet will be
available outside the music room during the last
week of term and we encourage any student
interested to audition. Please note that interested
students must be available for a one hour
afterschool rehearsal in the weeks leading up to
the concert. (This will be on either a Thursday or
Friday afternoon and will be decided, depending
upon the availability of the cast chosen). Auditions
will be held in the first and second week of Term 3.
Let the auditions begin!
