PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Welcome back to Term Two! I hope you all had a restful break and have returned invigorated and ready for another productive term. We loved seeing the smiling faces of our children this week and hearing all about their holiday adventures.
I sincerely thank our School Captains, Madeleine Montgomery and Sammy Panta, for laying a wreath on our behalf at the Dawn Service at Old Parade Ground, Georges Height Oval. We thank them and their parents for attending this special event.
We will also have an ANZAC Day prayer at our assembly this Friday. As we pause to remember the fallen, we are also able to reflect upon why Anzac Day is so important to our nation. We not only remember Gallipoli, but in person and in spirit, we commemorate the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our nation in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations.
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.
Lest we forget
Our beautiful Chloe Venn (Year 5) chose to cut her hair during the school holidays to raise money for charity and donate her hair to Wigs 4 Kids. She is raising money for children with cancer, and HoHi (Homes of Hope International) to raise money and awareness for children living in extreme poverty and vulnerable to human trafficking.
The link for donations is https://gofund.me/e6e3ba77
Chloe is aiming to raise $5000 because this amount means another girl can be rescued by HoHi, and costs for that girl are covered until she is 18 years old at the Homes of Hope shelter. There are so many children impacted by trafficking but they can only save 1 or 2 girls at a time.
It’s a relatively small charity run by someone from Manly Life - so it’s definitely for a great cause, they‘ve rescued so many already and hopefully one more girl can be saved
And Chloe‘s hair is packed and ready to be sent to Wigs 4 Kids today! WE ARE EXTREMELY PROUD OF YOU, CHLOE!!
