REMINDERS
- WEEK 5
Ash Wednesday Mass -
Tomorrow the 6th of March is Ash Wednesday. The mass will be in the hall
tomorrow at 9am to welcome the season of Lent.
Swimming Lessons
- Week 6&7 -
Swimming lessons begin next Monday 11th March and run for two weeks. Our
lessons take place at Dunsborough Foreshore (Jetty).
We ask that your child wears their
bathers to school underneath their sports uniform to make life easier for them.
They can wear thongs to school but they must bring their sneakers to put on
after they return to school. They will need:
- Swimming bag - not their
school bag
- Bathers & Rashie - please
note that all children must wear a rashie to keep
them sun safe.
- Thongs
- Towel
- Goggles
- Water bottle - perhaps think
about packing a spare one as it can be a long hot day for them!

Harmony Day. March 29th 2019.
We
need you…..
On
the 29th of March the students of Our Lady of the Cape Primary School will
celebrate Harmony Day.
It
is our aim to support the development of respect and appreciation for cultures
other than their own in the students. To do this we would like to immerse the
children in a rich variety of experiences that include food, music, visual arts
and the development of a knowledge base of the cultural traditions of others.
Information
is always best coming from those who have experienced the learning first hand
so we are asking parents help out on the day.
We
would love parents to lead an activity as part of a rotation between 9am and
11am on the day. There would be no more than 20 children in each group. Each
session would last 15 minutes and you would repeat this activity up to 6 six
times.
If
you were born in another country you may wish to present some photographs,
samples of traditional foods, clothing, games etc. and tell the children about
how you grew up. How is was different to here… and the same as here.
If
you can play a musical instrument you may like to share your skills. The
children would love to listen.
Perhaps
you can write some great haiku… or fold some tricky origami.
Those
of you who teach dance, karate or craft may like to come and share your
talents.
Children
always love to cook. We would love to have someone making pasta, pizza or some
other cultural delight (remembering that you only have 15 minutes).
So…
if you can help please email Julie Birch. julie.birch@cewa.edu.au
