Lost Property

Has your child lost a jumper, hat or other item?  Perhaps you've left non school items at school.  Lost property is now stored in the Medical Room near the front office.  It is available during school hours.  Items not claimed by the end of each term will be given to charity.

Breakfast Club operates five days per week at the school from 8.00-8.20am.  All children are welcome to attend.

We appreciate the support of Foodbank and all our wonderful volunteers.

This term at playgroup our theme is “All about me”. We will be making paper plate faces, hand and foot print painting and life size cut outs. We will also have our regular activities of easel painting, collage gluing, playdough and our mat sessions of a story and songs.

For our babies, there will be tummy time (to strengthen their back and neck muscles), push and pull toys, some wonderful books to look at, finger rhymes and songs to sing.

Playgroup is FREE and held every Tuesday at Merriwa Primary school during term times between 9.00-11.00am, for Aboriginal children up to 5yrs of age and their carers.

A morning tea of fresh fruit is provided for the children, and tea, coffee and biscuits for the adults. You do not need to have a child   attending this school to attend.

Hope to see you there!
