Resources Arrive At School

This week both the Coles Sports For Schools and Woolworths Earn and Learn Resources were delivered to the school. Thanks to the wonderful suppport from the school community in 2012 collecting vouchers, St Patrick's now has lots of fantastic new sport and classroom supplies.

 

Each of the 14 classes and the library were given a variety of resources and games and the sport shed now has a new supply of balls, ropes, ribbons and other sporting goods. The students and staff are very lucky indeed. Many thanks to yr 6 Diamonds class and the Sport Captains who helped unpack and distribute the equipment.

Back in Full Swing

Already the weeks of Term 1 feel like they are ticking away.
The library, as always at St Patrick's is a very busy place. Computer and library lesson are held Monday to Thursday and all the children are really enjoying spending some time in the library reading and working on the computers. Library borrowing is always popular too!
Here are some photos of Year 1 Venus on their borrowing day.

 

 

Welcome Back For 2013

 

Oh..... how the holidays seem so long ago!!

 

Like all the children and teachers at St Patrick’s, Mrs Woods and myself are working hard at setting up the library for another year of productive, fun learning.

Programs are being created, books catalogued, class folders put together and the list goes on.

Just like last year, St Patrick’s children attend the library at least twice each week, once for a library lesson and a second time for borrowing. Class teachers can also take their children to the library when it is free, such as on Fridays, for extra computer lessons or research work.

I look forward to sharing our fantastic library with the children and school community in 2013.

Keep checking back regularly for future posts.
