Anzac Day 2021
On Sunday 25th April a number of our students represented St Peters at the Dimboola Anzac Day Service, and our school captains layed a wreath during the morning service.
From Our Principal
Hi everyone, welcome to the third week of Term 2 of 2021. I hope that you have all had a wonderful week. Well this week we have encountered several very frosty mornings. Once the students start eating ice that they collect off the playground I know winter is knocking on our door! Even the abundance of Honey Eaters seemed frozen solid in the trees waiting to defrost. It has certainly motivated the students to stay warm by being more active at recess and lunch times.
Recently you would have received a copy of last year’s School Magazine. Students that were enrolled here in 2020 would have received their own copy earlier this week. Every effort has been made to include authentic examples of student art and writing. Mrs Walters has spent a great deal of time putting together this magazine and I wish to thank her for creating another superb book of memories. I hope that you and your children thoroughly enjoy looking back at last year.
School photos should have arrived home last week. We have been extremely impressed by the quality of the photos yet again this year. Please contact Andrew from Creations if you need any extra copies or are missing anything from your packs.
Last Wednesday our year 5 and 6 students headed to Tandara in Halls Gap. It was a ‘Leadership’ day which involved group activities, hands on tasks and mixing with students from 5 different Lutheran Schools. There were 63 students involved on the day. I have recently met with other Lutheran school principals and was so very proud to hear that they also noticed the calmness and positive involvement with which our students participated. Thank you to all the parents that dropped off their children earlier than usual and also came back after hours to pick them up.
Bike Education is planned to begin this term on Monday the 24th of May. All students from both classes will be involved in this Bike Education/Road safety program. Mr Reimann and Mrs Whittaker are both trained Bike Ed instructors and will be involved during practical activities. A checklist will be coming home very soon. It is essential that all bikes are road worthy as well as each student having a certified helmet to wear. A checklist will be attached to the note. Please check your child’s bike well before dropping it off at school from Friday the 21st .
Have a safe and Blessed weekend,
Tim Reimann
