A note from the Principal

Dear Parents,

It’s been a wet week here at Patana! Finally, we have seen the arrival of the annual rains and on Thursday lunchtime, we got to witness a magnificent downpour from our open plan canteen. Of course, this rain has led to some congestion on the roads and do plan extra time to your travels.

Our students have also enjoyed being ‘wet and wild’ during our end of year swim galas. Well done to the students and thank you to the PE team for making this a special event.

In the Patana News today, do look out for an article on Madagascar the Musical and I will also be sharing a letter with the staff leavers today.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead.
Sarah McCormack

Recycling Plastic bottle tops

We are championing an initiative to recycle plastic bottle caps. They must be type 2 plastic; this information can be found on the underside of the bottle cap.

Please bring in any clean caps that you have at home and put them in the green box in the shared area. We will collect them together and arrange for them to be sent to be recycled, where they will be turned into tables for local schools.

Every small step we each take makes a difference.

Thank you for your support.
