Lee
Mr. Mcleod has extended the competition deadline to THIS FRIDAY, 18 September.
This is Lee – Room 6’s scarecrow.
On Thursday 10th September our very own Kitchen Garden project was a popular winner at the Education Department’s Excellence Awards. Thank you to all those who have contributed to making it a very successful addition to our school, especially Mr. Mcleod and Suzie Ormonde!
Here are a few more pictures to show you how much it has grown in the last couple of months.
We look forward to reading your comments, just below this post.
This week students have enjoyed a delicious fruit kebab, delivered to their classrooms thanks to all those friends and parents who gave their time to chopping up a range of yummy fruits. Thank you to parents: Tracy, Alex and Jenny on Monday, and Steph, Carolyn and Alison on Wednesday. 
Despite the torrential rain and howling gales, students were treated to herb pikelets cooked up by Sally Hayes and Suzie Ormonde on Thursday. The green bits were carefully tasted as students tried to name the herbs used. Thank you to our ‘brave’ volunteers and Mr. Mcleod for his extraordinary organisational skills.
Why don’t you tell Mr. Mcleod which activity you enjoyed most and why or you may like to suggest a new activity for Healthy Fruit ‘n Veg Week next year.
