Yr 1 Grandparents' Day
100 Days of Prep
What a day! Hooray!
On Wednesday 31st the Preps came together to celebrate their 100 days of learning.
They started the day off with a gathering and a parade to see all the grandmas and grandpas in their old attire, grey hair and mobility aids. Other activities during the day included: writing about what they would spend $100 on, playing a counting game to 100, completing 100 exercises, making old people pictures with their buddies and finally finishing with a disco and watching 101 Dalmatians.
Thanks to all our parents for the effort put into costumes and your donations of non- perishable food items. Collectively we counted 123 cans of food which have now been collected by St Vinnies. They were so appreciative of our kind gesture and said there are so many people in our community in need that this will help. It was lovely to link this in with our school Touchstones this term of respect and connection.
Many thanks, Prep team.

City of Greater Geelong Children's Survey
On the 26 October, 2024, 11 new councillors will be elected onto the City of Greater Geelong Council. These people will be responsible for representing their communities and shaping what Greater Geelong looks like for the next four years and beyond.
It is important our councillors know what the community wants and needs, and this includes hearing from the children who call Greater Geelong home.
We want to know where your favourite places and spaces to visit in Greater Geelong are. This information will be provided to Council and will help them develop the four-year Council Plan 2025-2029.
Please share the link below with families that you are connected with so that the children have the opportunity to tell us which places and spaces they like
to visit.
Council Plan Kids Hub! | Council Plan 2025-29 | Have Your Say (geelongaustralia.com.au)
Thank you for your help in assisting to get children’s voices heard.
Warm Regards, Nikki
