Cross Country cont. Some good ideas…… Allow your child to bring an old towel or blanket to sit on as the ground is still damp. Send a plastic bag and an extra pair of shoes and socks as children will be running through some muddy patches. You might want to consider a change of clothes in case your child gets splattered with or falls in mud. PLEASE LABEL ALL CLOTHING AND HATS. Please also see attached the canteen information in this newsletter. Kinder children enjoying their moment at the Hat Parade. Interest Groups Interest groups for term 1 finish today.

Shiann, SRC rep. http://www.stewarthouse.org.au/ Cricket Team On Wednesday the 27 th of March our school organised a cricket team to verse Alstonville Public School in a PSSA knock out. Our batsmen tried their best and we made 25 runs in total. Our highest run scorer was Caleb with 8 runs. Our bowling was a lot better with Austin getting two wickets from the first two balls. APS equalled our score with only 5 wickets down. Austin was our top wicket taker with 4 wickets. Jarrod was also a key player when bowling and fielding giving us great hope for next year. We would like to thank Mrs Sawras for all her efforts in training us. Austin and Harvey Places are limited to 25 in each group. Late applications may not get their first preference, so pick a few activities. Well done TTPS Cricket team and Mrs Sawras, we are proud of your efforts.
