Discover Camp update (15:30 Wednesday)
Camp is now POSTPONED until Wednesday 20 November - Friday 22 November.  The camp is still without power and drinking water and they cannot tell us when it will be back.  Activities have also been closed and will be unable to run including the go kart track and the flying fox.

This means that the rest of this week is business as usual (including school uniforms!)  Thanks for the patience and please pass on this message to those who may not have access to the Internet due to power outages.  Thanks Lynley, Sue and Amy.

Due to some issues with our filtration system, our drinking taps are not currently working.  All children will need to bring their own water in a bottle from home until further notice.

Thanks
