Week 9 Term 2

The second last week of the term is over and we look ahead to a busy final week with our Celebration of Learning Evening on Tuesday night. A BIG thank you too all who have RSVP for this.

Polyfest
This week we have been putting our "Home is where the Heart is" self-portraits together, along with families written responses to: "What is special about your child, your family, and the Winton Community?" into book format to accompany our Art Entry. What an amazing effort our families have put in. Thank you to Rachel Reed for creating the birch heart-shaped frame. Sally, Georgia and the Discovery Time children headed down to New World to collect hand prints from the public for "Our Heart of Southland" Art Entry that Sally have been busy promoting within the community - you may have noticed surveys out around local businesses asking for positive comments/values that makes the Winton Community an awesome place for families.  Also our Community Lei is starting to take shape...Rachel Reed and some of the MTW Group begun the first section with the making of small wreaths to entwine around the lei...Watch this space! We will be show casing the children's work on Tuesday night at our Celebration of Learning before these are taken to the College of Education for judging on Friday next week. Winning entries will be put on display at the Southland Museum and Art Gallery - we wait in anticipation!

Earthquake and Fire Drills
This week both the MTW Group and TF Group have had practice Earthquake and Fire Drills. Well done children on getting to our safe place and listening to hear your name being called out!
