Pre Prep Sessions
Pre-Prep sessions for students starting in 2015 will be held on Fridays beginning
Friday 14th November - Friday 5th December, from 9:30am – 10:30am.
Money Matters
As the year is drawing to a close we need to begin preparing the school’s financial
information for 2015.
We are asking those families who still have outstanding
balances to please pay no later than Monday 15th December to allow us to clear
everything before the end of the school year.
If you are a split family and would like your child’s school charges for next year
allocated between two parents we request that you notify the office before the
end of the year so that we are able to do this for you.

MACEDON RANGES
COLOUR RUN—SUCCESS
HEALTH
Runners who registered for the Macedon
Ranges Health Colour Run, held on 19th
October, were asked to nominate their
favourite local school. We received a
call from Macedon Health last week,
advising us that GPS was the lucky
recipient of a $250 SportsPower Voucher.
Thank you to all who registered and
nominated GPS, we appreciate your
support.
Miss Harkom wanted to share this
wonderful writing by Ruby from Prep A.
Whilst not the author of this poem, Ruby
lovingly copied it into her special writing
book for her dad
School Hats Term 4
It is School Council policy that school
uniform is compulsory and is to be
worn by all students. School Council
has also adopted a SunSmart policy,
which requires children to wear an
approved school hat for Terms 1 and
4. Students who do not bring hats to
school are asked to sit undercover or
in the shade. Hats can be purchased
from Beleza Uniform Shop in Aitken
Street.
