Maths Hatter Day
Dear Parents/Guardians
What a fantastic Mother’s Day stall the P&C ran last Friday. They have reported it was their most
successful one ever. It is great that it was so well supported by our students. Thank you to the
many who either helped wrap or work at the stall. It was much appreciated and pleasing to know we
have parents who are willing to assist.
Another very successful event this week has been the raising of money for the recent Nepal
earthquake victims. Students and families have been very generous with their contributions. Special
thanks to the Student Council members and Mrs Sloan who created the Mt Everest money box and
have been collecting the donations.
Kindy Enrolments - Early Years Learning Pogram
I am pleased that we are able to offer this very valuable program again for students who are in our
local catchment area and will be attending our Kindergarten next year. Details are available when
you come and lodge your application for Kindergarten enrolment.
Upcoming Events
Tomorrow is our first afternoon of Interschool Winter Sport. We are playing Greenfields PS here at
Riverside. You are most welcome to come and watch your child play. Games start at 1.30pm.
Maths Hatter Day
Parents are invited to come in to the school for our MATHS HATTER DAY on
Wednesday 20th May. Classes will be running maths activities from 8.5010.50am and parents are most welcome to join in.

School Uniform
With the colder weather approaching it is timely to revisit our School dress Code particularly in
relation to footwear. Boots are not part of our Dress Code and are most unsuitable as students
cannot join in school activities properly. Please leave these for wearing on the weekends or after
school.
NAPLAN
Students in Year 3 and 5 have been very busy this week participating in the NAPLAN testing program.
The program ran very smoothly with students showing no distress at all.
Students’ reports will be available in September.
Thank you
Deborah Bloor
Principal
P&C Meeting
Tomorrow is the last day to send in donations for Nepal.
So far the response has been amazing.
