Today along with 125 staff, volunteers and special guests I had the pleasure of attending the Launch of our 50th Year History Book. This special day marked the end of 18 months of vision, dedication and passion by author Dianne Filepenko and our wonderful 50th year Subcommittee headed up by Bill Nixon OAM, Norma Gibson, Shirley Oddy, Eleanor Hewitt and Carol French. We are all very proud of this book and the story it tells of our unique and important history and I sincerely congratulate Dianne and the sub-committee for this wonderful achievement. Our Book is available for sale and well worth a read! Pick one up for $20 from the office. Term 4 promises to be a very busy one at the centre with dance concerts, presentation days and end of year celebrations across most of our activities. Term 4 is also the time for us to be planning for our 2015 programs and we hope to have this ready by week 8 just in time for the enrolment period to commence. The enrolment process for next year will begin on Monday November 24th. Enrolment forms will not be sent home so it is important that you take note of the information around the centre leading up to this time. Remember that the majority of our classes are full with waiting lists so if you forget to re-enrol you do risk losing your spot in your chosen class. Parents please remember that it is very important that all children under 12 are escorted into the centre before classes and picked up from inside the centre when their class is finished. Children should not be navigating the car park without parental supervision. Please also ensure that if you are going to be running late to collect your child that you phone the office as soon as possible. Teachers/ instructors generally go from one class to the next without a break and cannot supervise children that have not been collected on time. In order for the office staff to ensure the safety of your children it is important that we are advised when you are going to be late.

We have had a lot of fun at competitions this year and look forward to next year when I’m sure we will continue to get better and better.
