Spellathon cards<\/span><\/h3>
Please return Spellathon cards to school tomorrow, Wednesday August 17th. Testing day is this Friday.<\/span><\/div>

Soup<\/span><\/h3>
Our final day for soup fundraising is tomorrow, Wednesday. It would be great to see lots of Year 7 & 8s buying soup, as this is going towards our ski tip. Pumpkin, tomato or chicken, for $2. <\/span><\/div>

Ski Day Reminders<\/span><\/h3>
Just two more sleeps before we are off skiing. The weather forecast is looking great, sunny with light winds. We couldn\u2019t wish for better than that! The high will be 0, so lots of warm layers are a must. By now clothing has been sent home to those who requested it. If your child still needs something, we must hear about this tomorrow, Wednesday. <\/o:p><\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>
Please pack a hearty lunch and a water bottle. The caf\u00e9 up the mountain is very expensive. Children may bring a little money, but they are responsible for this. All children should have some energy food (e.g. muesli bar or mini chocolate bar) in their jacket pocket, for snacking on the slopes.<\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>
Thanks to those of you who have already paid the $40 at the office. If you haven\u2019t paid, this has been charged to your account.<\/o:p><\/span><\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/span><\/div>
Your child will need:<\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/div>
Several thin layers are much better for keeping warm and comfortable than a bulky layer. Cotton is not great for the mountains; thermal clothing is what\u2019s needed.<\/span><\/div>
