Week 1 and 2 Term 3

 KAYA,

And just like that, we are back! Can you believe we are at the halfway mark? I hope you had the most wonderful break with your awesome children, I cannot wait to hear their stories. 
We have a busy term ahead of us with camp, OLC's Got Talent and Athletics Carnivals. 
In 6H, we are also taking back the school ministry jobs for this term so we will be very busy. Your child may also have a speaking role in the weekly assemblies so watch this space! 
I feel very lucky to have seen my family during the holidays and have spent some time in the very green emerald island of Ireland. You may hear a slight twang back in my accent. 😂 
I look forward to sharing some stories with the students when they return.💚

Important Camp Reminders and Important Information

  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.
