AUHTOR VISIT: Andrew Daddo

The OLOR teachers and students had the pleasure of welcoming Australian Author Andrew Daddo into our school community on Friday. Andrew shared some wonderful stories with the children on how he became a writer. The children had a great time and shared many laughs with Andrew.

Please check your child’s bag as their book wishlist came home on Friday. All information regarding the purchasing of books is on a previous post in the blog. 

To clarify, the Baptism Liturgy that was announced in the previous post is a liturgy to conclude Year One’s unit of work. 

It is an opportunity for the Year One students to participate in a Liturgy based on what they have been learning this term.
