I Don't Need a Paper Newsletter

After a conversation with several parents on Tuesday I thought it would be good to give all parents the opportunity to start saving paper and money at Ardtornish.

If you no longer require a paper version of the school newsletter could you please indicate by responding on the Ardtornish+ post today.

Simply comment on the post with:

No longer required

(I will comment on there as an example)

We were not expecting to begin this process this year. I am however very pleased and am happy to begin reducing the time spent on printing and distribution.

If you don't have the Ardtornish+ community please let me know.

Cheers Steve

Dragons Can Be So Much Fun

We had a great afternoon today. We were all so lucky to spend an hour with Marc McBride while he air brushed a dragon on a canvas and then showed us how to draw a dragon.

Well done Jane Moore on organising a super session!

A Big Few Weeks!

With a busy few weeks ahead we thought you may need a little reminder of our classroom commitments.

Marc McBride - Deltora Quest illustrator came today. Get ready for many dragon pictures appearing around your house!
Thursday 14th August - Students will be shown the Geography Research Tasks. They will be answering this question 'Does the environment we live in shape how we live?' Research will be completed in groups and shared in their Google drives.
Friday 15th August - Pupil Free Day

Week 5 - Book Week.      Opal Survey on Wednesday

A lot of information is coming out via the Google Plus community (Ardtornish+).  We are putting less of the whole school information on this blog as Ardtornish+ is providing this link now for all families. If you are not a member please come and see me or Sharon for some assistance.
