Welcome back to Term 2!

Welcome back Term 2! I hope you’ve all had a relaxing holiday and are feeling refreshed for the new term.

Stationary

The new term is a great chance to stock take your child’s stationary. Please make sure everything is named. Your child needs two sharp pencils, one rubber, one ruler, one glue stick and one pencil sharpener. Tissues are a very important part of our classroom and it is very much appreciated if you are able to send a box of tissues along for the class (if you haven’t already).

Toys and electronics

Please do not allow your child to bring any toys or electronic devices (e.g. tablets) to school. We cannot take responsibility for the safety of these devices, and toys often cause arguments and confusion in the playground. Children have access to laptops and tablets at school.

Performance

We are very lucky to have the performer El Grego visiting on June 13^th. The cost for this is $3.

Uniform

The Hampstead School uniform is compulsory and need to be kept clean and tidy. Please make sure everything your child wears is named. It makes it much easier for things to find their way back their owner (particularly jerseys!)
