Lambs House
Thank you to all the volunteers who helped construct the enclosure for the lambs on Saturday. The new lambs have arrived today and the children are looking forward to feeding them and watching them grow. Students will be able to select a name for the boys this week.

Any unwanted tiles you may have would be greatly welcome for an upcoming project in the garden. Please take to Miss Scanlon (4S).

Meeting
Next Meeting is Tuesday 21st in the Library at 7:00pm. Anyone is welcome

Mulch keeps down weeds keeps in moisture and feeds your plants as it breaks down. Renew your mulch when it starts to look thin.

Potato planting with 2S






Maths in the garden: If every potato planted will produce about 10 potatoes and everybody in the class plants one potato, how many potatoes are we expected to harvest?

Newsletter Term 3, Week 4

Working Bee 
We will be having a working bee on the 18th of August from 9am to make a few changes in the Garden area. If you would like to come and help or just drop in and see what is happening please do! Many hands make light work.

Tiles
Do you have some old tiles, scraps or whole, that would be useful for making mosaics lying around at home? If so please bring them to school. We have a new project in mind but need lots of tiles.

Happy Birthday to "the Girls” It has been one year since the chooks arrived and they are such a big part of the school. Chickens only need a few things to be healthy and happy and they certainly brighten our every day!
