to score more goals. The boys are

to be congratulated on a great

match but unfortunately went

down four-nil. It was a

significant improvement on last

years match.

Footsteps Dance Program

and Disco

Next week our students will be

attending our annual Footsteps

dance program as part of our

PDHPE programs. The sessions

will be conducted between 9-

11am each morning. I am sure

that the students will really enjoy

the opportunity to learn some

new dances that they will be able

to show off at the Footsteps

Disco which is to be held next

Thursday, 22nd June

between 5.30pm and 7.00pm

in our school hall

Kind Regards,

Tanya Connor

CWA Project Display

There have been some wonderful

projects handed in for the CWA

projects on Nepal. The ladies from

the CWA have been in to judge the

entries during the week and set up

a display in the hall. They will

award the prize winners at a special

assembly this Thursday at 9.15am.

3/4M students will be showcasing a

video project they have been

working on at the assembly.

A bowl will be passed around for

donations to help ‘Coins for

Friendship’ raise money for

projects such as:

● Helping earthquake victims

around the world.

Hand pumps to provide water in

rural communities in the South

Pacific.

● Providing “Save Eye Sight”

campaigns for the Royal

Commonwealth Institute for the

Blind.

Parents are welcome to attend.

Boys Football (Soccer)

Last Friday, the boys soccer team

had a pleasant day in Bathurst. We

were up against a very experienced

team from Eglinton. We started off

enthusiastically, working hard to

defend a well drilled team. Eglinton

scored first but our boys ensured

that the opposition found it difficult

Welcome to another busy week

at Millthorpe Public School.

Debating

Our Red debating teams will be

travelling to Raglan Public

School next Wednesday to

participate in the next round of

the debating competition. They

have been working hard to

prepare their arguments. We

wish them the best of luck for

their debate.

Band Day

Last Wednesday members of the

school band and the Little Big

Band travelled to Blayney High

School to participate in the

Heritage Country Schools band

day. It was wonderful to see over

50 students in attendance. The

students worked hard to learn to

new pieces of music – Tequila

and Funkytown. Mr Browett,

Principal of Blayney High

arranged these pieces especially

for the band and I was truly

amazed at how quickly the

students were able to learn to

play them.
