Dear mums, dads, carers and colleagues
This past fortnight has, once again, been filled with achievements, success and excitement for our students.
Choir at Eisteddfod
I was absolutely thrilled with the performance of our choir last Thursday evening when they competed at the Gold Coast Eisteddfod. Mrs Blyth and the performers were colourful and fun and sang beautifully. Like the families who attended, I was so proud to see them shine for us. And then to receive 2nd place was the bonus!
Prep excursion
Our prep students went off to Sea World this week as part of their 'Under the sea' units of work. Thank you to the staff who escorted them safely for their first ever school excursion. It certainly was memorable. Please check out the photo gallery in the Prep section below.
Free dress day (Tuesday 6 September)
Regional Chess tournament
Congratulations to our chess team who competed at the regional tournament last week. Special congratulations to Ashtiva who was placed first in her division. A special thank you to Mrs Hardwick for leading our team.

Sea World excursion
What an amazing adventure our Preps had heading off to Sea World this week to learn all about sea creatures. The looks of wonder on their faces as they were entertained by the dolphins and visiting the many exhibits was priceless.

State invitation tennis tournament
Congratulations to Cruz on his recent tennis achievements. He was a member of the Gold Coast team who recently travelled to Cairns. His team finished 4th overall (out of 12 teams) and he personally finished 17th in the singles event out of 48 boys ( 10 -12 year old boys )
On Wednesday and Thursday this week, in preparation for Father's Day, some children chose to design their own key rings to give as a gift.
Using shrink paper, the children drew their designs, and put lovely messages for their Dad. Once they were satisfied with their design, it was time to shrink them down and see the final result.
This involved baking them in the oven, as the heat causes the paper to shrink down to about 50% of its original size! After they had cooled, we attached a split ring and some string, and they were ready to be taken home.
Each child pleased with their creation, and proud of their thoughtful gifts.

Please email the P&C at pandc@coomerariversss.eq.edu.au for a TEAMS link.
P&C meetings are a great way to keep up to date with what is going on around our school. The meetings also provide our families with an opportunity to have input and feedback on matters relating to school and community life. Meetings are open to all families and we encourage families to attend our on-line meeting and contribute to your school community which forms a vital part of your children's educational journey.
We look forward to seeing you on-line at our next meeting.
