Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome to our first newsletter of term 2,
Anticipation is building as we are fast approaching our Year 5/6 camp at Billabong Ranch Camp in Echuca in Week 5 for the following dates: Wednesday May 21st, Thursday 22nd, Friday 23rd. All dietary and medical forms should now be received by your classroom teacher for processing . When organising for camp could you please refer to the camp list with your child and together pack for camp, so your child can be responsible for their known belongings. For Non Campers it will be business as usual at school on these dates. We look forward to camp and all the learning we do here at Riverwalk PS, both inside and outside of the classrooms,
We look forward to the term ahead,
Year 5 Team
Rachel Lindorff, Inger Bride, Ana Mitchell, Anne Louise Kiteley, Lauren Mayberry
