Week 9 Learning and Information

  KAYA,

Well done to all the students who participated in the OLC Cross Country. I was passed on some beautiful feedback from the other teachers on how helpful and respectful the Year 6 students were on the day. Well done team to all our winners and to the leaders!
I cannot believe we are almost at the end of Term 2, with only two weeks left we are looking at finishing off some projects and having a great end to a very busy term.



Please note - The OLC dance crew students will need to wear their sport uniform tomorrow as there will be one extra practice for them in the morning with the wonderful Ellie Haines. 

Vinnie's Winter Appeal 

Thank you to all those people that donated to the Vinnie's Winter Appeal, well done to the Year 6 leaders that ensured that this wonderful intiative was carried out in OLC. There was a full Ute load of rugs, blankets, jackets, jumpers, and scarfs going to those in need this winter! Well done guys, Making Jesus Real! 

Important Homework 

Please note there are a number of Year 6 students who are not completing their homework and seesaw tasks and projects when they are due. Also, the same students are not bringing their diaries to school for organisation. Please note homework routines and diary preparation and projects are an important routine for preparing your child for high school. In Term 3 and 4 when your child does not turn in their diary and homework on time, I will be notifying you every week.

Year 6 Camp

I hope you received the letter for the Year 6 camp from your child this week. Unfortunately, there are still some letters that have not yet been returned. Can you please ensure these are returned tomorrow.

Camp Homework:
We have now completed our camp task homework. However, in the last two weeks of school. I will be asking those students who have not completed these tasks yet to get this done.

Rube Goldberg Machine
Awesome work to those students that have completed their Rude Goldberg Machine, they were EPIC and so fun to watch. There are a few students who have still to complete this project. Please make sure this is completed over week 9. 

Human Development
As the OLC Cross Country was held on Thursday last week, our human development workshop has been moved to another date. It will now be held on Tuesday the 28th of June. The boys session will be held from 9am - 10.30am and the girls session will be held from 11am - 12.30pm.

Year 6 Tree Planting - Ludlow Forest
On Thursday the 30th of June, we will be taking the Year 6 students to Ludlow Forest to volunteer to help plant trees. This activity will take most of the day. We will depart OLC at 9.20am and we will arrive back to school by 3pm. The students will need to wear sport clothes and bring wet weather gear and will need to bring a packed lunch and water.



I hope you have a wonderful week, please do not hesitate to reach out to me should you have any questions. 

Thank you, 

Miss Hurst

  K AY A, Can you believe that it is only  5  sleeps until we depart for Year 6 camp??? The students are going to have the most amazing time; we will be taking part in activities like wall climbing, zip-lining, abseiling and team games as well as lots of fun group activities.  Please remember we will depart OLC at 8.40 on Monday morning. Your student will need to arrive around 8.15am and place their bags for camp outside the hall in front of the double doors. They will then make their way to the classroom for the class role. Students will need to ensure they have used the bathroom as the bus is a two hour drive. They will also need to take out any medical items from their bag and provide this to the teacher in a clear zip lock bag with their name on it.  We hope the students have started to prepare their bags for camp using the camp what to bring list below.
