to talk to some staff and students.

We had a great response from parents at our Bunnings BBQ. As a result of the hard work we made over $1300. This was a fantastic effort. Thank you to the parents and staff that gave up their time on Sunday.
End Of Year
There are just over 25 school days remaining to the end of the year. It is important that all students come to school with the right attitude towards learning. Teachers will continue to teach to the last day and will not accept students disrupting the learning of others. Please reinforce this message to your children so we can have a positive finish to the year.
Enrolments
Thank you to the families that have contacted the school to indicate they would be moving next year. If you know of anyone that is moving to a new school next year or will be coming to Rosemeadow please encourage them to contact the office. Accurate student numbers will create a smooth transition next year without the need to restructure.
School Reports
Draft copies of student reports are due this week. Once any corrections are made the final copy will be sent home on Monday December 7 th for Yrs 5 and 6 and Friday December 11 th for the remainder of the school.. Please make sure you are aware of these dates and contact the school if it does not arrive home.
If you would like to discuss the contents of the report please make an appointment with your child's class teacher.
Attendance and Punctuality
It is important that students attend regularly and on time to school. There are vital lessons being delivered between here and the end of the year.
Please support this request!
