Term 1, Week 1, 2024

Secondary students have been working on a carpentry program this week and the feedback about their participation, respectfulness and engagement has been outstanding. Families can be so proud of secondary students at Mount Magnet.

You may have noticed some students coming home with literacy badges. We are in a competition with some Murchinson schools for a rather spectacular literacy cup. The Principal of Cue sent me a photo of a cup already but I can assure everyone that is fake news and just some friendly rivalry.

The Cup will be awarded by an independent person in Week 8 of this term and displayed at the winning school. The real purposes of the competition is to encourage students across the Murchinson to acquire solid literacy skills. Good literacy is one of the main reasons and points of going to school.

Please praise up your children if they come home with a badge.

Special welcome to Miss Ross and welcome back to Mrs King. At the moment there are no Kindergarten enrolments for 2024 so we will begin planning a different class structure for 2024 in a couple of weeks time. If you have been meaning to get around to it, please do that as soon as you can. Excellent work by so many students this week.

We are very proud of them.
