Thank you to all our family members and friends who came along and supported the special Easter Chapels that we held on Wednesday 3rd April. We are very proud of the students who all performed to the best of their ability. 

We have included some photos of both chapels for you to enjoy. All the photos were taken by Year 6 students who are a part of the BCS Creations team.

Camp Medication
The Year 6s are going on their camp in Week 2, Wednesday 8th May to Friday 10th May. We will pack the medication that has been provided to the school. If your child is on any regular medication that needs to be administered in the evening, night or in the morning, please provide the medication along with a management plan or medication authority form signed by a doctor and the parent by Wednesday 10th April 2024. The following details need to be included:  name of the child, medication name, dose, time to administer and any special instructions. All medications including antihistamines, Panadol and any other over the counter medication/herbal medications need to have a doctor’s note. The school will not be able to administer any medication without the doctor's authorisation form, as per the school policy. If the medication is not provided by the end of Week 6 the child may not be able to attend camp. If you have any concerns, please contact the school on 8283 0000.

Swimming
Week 10 is swimming week for our Year 3s and Year 4s.

I would like to remind you of the following:
•    If your child suffers from eczema which is worsened by swimming, please talk to your child's teacher or to the school nurse who can help to implement a care plan for your child
•    As usual the school will pack the medication that has already been provided to the school
•    Please make sure to check your child’s hair for headlice before the swimming event
•    If your child is not feeling well, please keep the child at home and notify the school
•    As per the swimming center's policy, you must not swim for 2 weeks after gastro symptoms have ceased
•    For more information about the swimming center's policies please visit the below link https://parafieldgardensswimschool.com.au/contact-us/our-policies 

God bless you,

This year we went on our Year 5 camp to Woodhouse Adventure Park. We did 9 activities and were split into 3 groups. Each group had 2 teachers. We stayed in dorms with 4-5 people and had amazing food from the fabulous chefs. My favourite activity was 100% Challenge Hill. I really liked ice blocking also. Overall, camp was amazing and it made me step out of my comfort zone.

My highlights from my Year 5 camp were having so much fun with my friends in our dorms and on our activities. Another highlight was going on the night walk and seeing all the nature and some animals. Everyone had so much fun.
