Father’s PJ & Pizza Night
We love to come together as a community and celebrate the special people in our lives. In Term 3 we showered our appreciation over the special males who support us each and every day. Fathers, grandfathers and uncles were all celebrated and acknowledged for their love and support for every child.
Each child took their time crafting the perfect gift and finding the perfect way to describe why our special men were so spectacular and why we are so grateful for them:
I love when daddy helps me tidy up my room. – Gabe.
‘I’m grateful for my dad because he is really funny, and he’s always nice and kind’. – Sam.
‘My daddy let’s me have ice cream on other days, not just Friday’. – Marley.
‘I’m grateful for my dad because when mum is away he’ll play with me, and he’s always my friend’. – Trisha.
To top this celebration off, we invited our dads, grandpas and uncles to join us for a PJ & Pizza night at the ELC. Everyone arrived looking very cosy and left with big smiles and a full stomach thanks to Farro Pizza.
Footy Week
Our last week of Term 3 was a sporting celebration in preparation for the upcoming AFL & NRL Grand finals. Everyone was invited to dress in their favourite football teams’ uniform and display their support through song, selected art activities and a special FMS lesson.
Team colours and songs decorated each classroom as children were invited to make colourful paper chains, and colour in team jerseys as talk of who’ll take the final win were discussed.
On the Thursday everyone set out to the Oval for a footy themed FMS lesson. Handball targets, goal kicking practise and fast sprints were on the agenda to capture the spirt of the game. We were blessed with the most perfect sunny day which showered us with sunshine as everyone showed off their skills.
By the end of the week, it’s fair to say all moods were uplifted as we said goodbye to a phenomenal week and a very productive Term Three.
