27 th April 2015 Dear Silver Room Parents, Re: Graduation Shirts This year for the Year 6 Graduating class it has been decided that for our Leavers Shirts this year we will use our existing OLC Polo Shirt. We will design a piece of art for the shirt which will appear with our school crest on the front and “Graduates 2015” along with our chosen artwork and student names on the back. You have two options in regards to the shirt: 1.     You can provide a clean and tidy polo shirt that your child may already have. 2.     You can purchase a new polo shirt from the uniform shop. The total cost for the work to be done on the shirts is $7.90 each. This can be paid directly to myself or through the office. This amount will need to be paid by Friday 15 th May. These shirts can be worn on Tuesdays and Fridays instead of the normal sports shirts. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me directly. Kind regards,

If possible, can you ask your child to read out loud to you regularly? It is a great way to show your interest in their learning and it is beneficial for your child to hear themselves. It also helps them to correct any mistakes, as well as giving them practise for our Assemblies etc. Please make sure that your child writes the name of the book they are reading and the number of pages read in their diary in the appropriate space.
