FATHER’S DAY

SCIENCE WEEK 2024

The Science Week theme this year was ‘Species Survival – More than Just Sustainability.’

The theme aimed to highlight the importance of science and innovation in ensuring the survival and thriving of different species in an ever-changing world. This year, we were lucky enough to engage the expertise of ‘Einsteins Australia’ as they helped us discover insects and alternative food sources, pollinators and super composters as well as what our food could look like in the future.

As usual competitions were held over the couple of weeks leading up to our celebration week of all things Science.

The winner of the “How many Worms are in the Jar’ competition was won by Stella Midson who guessed 543.

The winners of the PP-Y2 Colouring competition were Ryan Tran (1B) and Mia Woodworth (2G).

The winners of the Y3 –Y6 Colouring competition were Tiana Minas(3G) and Cooper Woodworth(5G).

Thank you to everyone who participated in all activities this week. We hope you all had a fun and learned how important bugs are to our future survival!

Mrs Jerkovich and Mrs Rogers.

CANTEEN NEWS

The new Semester 2 CANTEEN MENU for 2024 is available on the MMCCPS website or alternatively if you require a hard copy, at the office or canteen. Please refer to this new menu ONLY, as many changes have taken place, with freshly made products.

The canteen operates on Monday, Wednesday & Friday. To alleviate using money, Mary MacKillop Catholic Community Primary School has an online ordering system for canteen orders.  This enables a more efficient and effective service available to you and your family.

You can visit quickcliq.com.au to register.

Canteen tokens are available to purchase from the office or canteen at a cost of $32 per sheet. Lunch/recess order bags are available from the canteen, 20 bags for $1.  Please ensure your child’s name and correct class are written clearly on bags. Separate bags must be written for recess and lunch. PLEASE DO NOT USE STICKY TAPE OR STAPLES TO SECURE LUNCH BAGS.

All lunch/recess orders must be placed in classroom baskets before the class commences. They will then be taken to the canteen.  If your child is late, they are to take the lunch order directly to the canteen.

All prepaid drink orders from Yrs 1-6 are to be collected by your child at the canteen with their lunch order bags as proof of purchase.

Ice creams are then sold after the students are dismissed from eating their lunch. If ice creams are pre ordered, the bag must be shown at the canteen when picking up the ice cream.

Please note, your child can purchase a drink or ice cream without pre ordering if they have money.

Parents, please do not allow your children to buy ice creams for their friends and large amounts of money should not be given to them.  Thank you for your co operation in this matter.

If you wish to volunteer in the canteen please come and see me, we would love your help.

If you have any queries, please come and see either myself or Kath and we will be happy to help.
Regards,
Sylvia Iggleden.
