TERM 2 FOCUS<br />

Our <strong>School</strong> Values<br />

Respect-having regard for self, others and the environment<br />

Inclusion-sense of belonging<br />

Integrity-being honest and fair<br />

Responsibility-being responsible for your actions & words<br />

Personal Best-striving for excellence<br />

Each term we will focus on one of these values as part of<br />

our whole school approach to wellbeing. In Term 2 our<br />

focus is on Respect.<br />

Fundraising Target<br />

This year the fundraising committee decided to set a goal to<br />

aim for. After consulting with teachers a decision was made<br />

to try and raise enough money to purchase an Apple iPad for<br />

each class. The graphic below will be displayed at the<br />

school to let everyone know how we are going. So far<br />

approximately $900 dollars has been raised from our Easter<br />

Egg Competition, Cake Stall and Mother’s Day Raffle. A<br />

number of fundraising activities have been planned for the<br />

rest of the year to help us reach this goal including:<br />

A Chocolate Drive at the end of this term.<br />

A Pie Drive<br />

A Harness Racing Night on 1 st October<br />

A Car Boot Sale<br />

Voting Day Food Stalls<br />

Cake Stalls (One per Term)<br />

Caledonian Raffles once per month<br />

We would like to thank everyone for their support in helping<br />

us to reach our goal.
