Dear Families,

Over the course of term 4 we have been made aware of a number of families who have had a change in details. This could be address, phone number or email details. If you have made any of these, or other changes, please contact the School Office and update them by completing the Bethany Christian School Update Form as this will ensure that we have the correct contact details for you and your family.

Thank you,

Dean Huntley

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Thank you so much for supporting our school!

The end of year event Colour Explosion School Fun Run is nearly here.

Parents and Friends are looking forward to hosting you and your family as we celebrate the 2021 school year.

ELC and Reception Parents - please note your children will be running their race from 2pm – 3pm on the 3rd of December and are welcome back to enjoy the festivities and watch the older year levels run their races. Parents are allowed onsite during this time to cheer their child on as long as they wear a mask, stand in the designated parent viewing area, remain 1.5m apart, and sign in using the QR Code provided.

We ask that your child wears their colour explosion gift white t-shirt to school that day, along with their black PE school shorts and sneakers you don’t mind getting wet and dirty. T-shirts will be sent home with your child on the 2nd of December. It might be a good idea to bring a towel when picking your children up from school, as they will be covered from head to toe in coloured powder, slime and water.

Year 1 through to Year 6 parents - the rest of the students will be provided with a school supplied gift t-shirt on the afternoon of the 3rd Dec and are required to wear it back to the event with their black PE school shorts and sneakers you don’t mind getting wet and dirty.

All t-shirts are white and will be getting wet. We strongly encourage your child to wear a tank top underneath for discretion.

Please use the Eventbrite ticketing system link if you will be attending the event. Click here to access the link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/colour-explosion-fun-run-tickets-214434989827 

More information regarding your child’s race time, merchandise collection (sunglasses and wristband) will be sent home the week prior to the event.

On Thursday 18^th November six table tennis teams represented Bethany at the annual SACSA Table Tennis Carnival, which was held at the Woodville Table Tennis Club. The teams had a really good day with all teams giving their best and enjoying the experience.

On Friday 5th November, the sun was shining and it made for a hot day at Park 17 for the Year 5|6 SACSA Football Carnival. Special mention and congratulations go to the 5|6 Boys team who are the 2021 Champions!

On Friday 29th October we held our annual Mini Olympics for all children in Reception and Year One. Although the weather leading up to the day wasn’t ideal, the day itself turned out to be great. The students competed in the 70m sprint, Water Relay Steeple Chase, Challenge Throw, Long Jump, Inflatable Fun and Tug-O-War. The student’s attitude and effort on the day was fantastic and it was great to see them having so much fun. Well done to everyone!

We would like to congratulate Ashton S from Year 1 who was involved in the following school record:

Final House Results were as follows:

Thank you so much to everybody involved in making this day a true success.

We would particularly like to thank the following people:

* All staff that helped on the day – we could not have done this without you!
* Mr Joshua Pichugin and Mr Jeremy Graetz for setting up the sound system for the day.
* Year 6 students who helped officiate the events and take the photographs.
* Mr Aaron Mabikafola for organising the media for this event.
