Welcome back to Term 2!

Principal Desley Kirby, Tin Can Bay P-10 School

Last term ended with a rush, thanks to Cyclone Debbie. While our region escaped unscathed, the snap school closures highlighted the need for accurate communication – please update your contact details with our office.

Thanks to all our families who worked with us last term to ensure we make a difference in your children’s lives.

ANZAC Day  The school thanks the Tin Can Bay RSL sub branch for their assistance with the ceremony in the school hall. Students also participated in the march and service on April 25.

Crazy Hair Day  Thank you to all the students, families and teachers who participated in the craziness of the day, including student leaders and Mrs Hogan for organising on-site hairdressing stations. Not only did we all have fun, but we were able to raise $260 for the Leukemia Foundation.

“Best acknowledgement activities ever”

Water fun was washed out and due to the colder weather, alternative laughter-filled activities like ‘Minute to Win It’ were held in the Hall and this was how they were described:

The fantastic behaviour and attendance of students will be acknowledged each term. Help your student/s to be eligible by encouraging great learning, safe and respectful behaviours at school and explaining all absences.
