SWPBS CELEBRATION DAY – FOODBANK FOOD FIGHT

On Wednesday 20th March our Term 1 Celebration Day will be taking place, to recognise and reward the positive efforts students have made in displaying our school values of Voice, Choice and Independence.

‎‎

The special event will be a Foodbank Food Fight, where staff and students will participate in a fun-filled and messy challenge which will take place on the school oval. Please note, no actual food is involved in the ‘food fight’.

‎‎

Students are encouraged to wear a white t-shirt and shorts for the colourful ‘food fight’. They will also need a towel and a change of clothing for after the event. This is an optional activity, with students supported to participate in a manner that they are comfortable with. Reasonable adjustments will be implemented according to your child’s individual needs and choice of participation. This may look like cheering and watching from the sidelines rather than participating directly in the ‘food fight’ activity.

‎‎

All students will have the opportunity to watch Leanne and Hannah, our Principal and Assistant Principal, being slimed in the afternoon. Thank you for everyone’s generous donations to help us achieve our fundraising targets.

‎

WAYI COMMUNITY SHOUTOUTS

A huge thank you to all Wayi Community members for their generous donations towards our Easter Raffle Hampers.

We have a fantastic selection of prizes and treats to raffle off as a token of appreciation for the ongoing dedication and support shown by our community.

RIDING FOR THE DISABLED ASSOCIATION (RDA) OPPORTUNITY – EXPRESSION OF INTEREST

We are excited to offer the opportunity for a small group of students to engage in the RDA Oaklands – equine program. This year we have been allocated 3 spaces for Wayi School students to access this program. We expect to offer this opportunity each year and hope that all students who wish to participate will get the opportunity to attend at least once during their time at Wayi. Depending on the number of interested families, there may be a need to develop a preference criterion.

‎

Parents/Carers/Guardians will be required to provide transport to and from RDA Oaklands and remain with their child for the hour-long session. Parents will also be expected to pay the weekly $25 fee. The sessions will run weekly throughout the year (not during school holiday periods).
