To all the students and families of Room 19

A big thank you for the year. There have been some great opportunities for extra learning, with PrEP and Camp, as well as many various visitors to the school. Thank you to the children for being great students and all the best to the year 4's for next year-I will miss you! 
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Have a great holiday. See you back at school at the end of January.
