😊As part of our “Bullying No Way” assembly this afternoon, one student from each P-6 class was nominated by their teacher to receive a kindness award.
😊The students were recognised for demonstrating kindness in their everyday actions and for making a big difference to others!
😊Well done to all of these students, and also to all of the other Mundingburra students that demonstrate kindness too.✨

🔹As part of ‘Science Week’, P-2 classes participated in a wildlife session with Ranger Jackie from “Hands On Wildlife”.
🔹Students had the opportunity to touch and hold some Australian animals including a woma python, squirrel gliders, a Kreft’s river turtle, blue tongued lizard, bearded dragon and saltwater crocodile.
🔹There were many excited students who listened respectfully to Ranger Jackie’s talk. Teeny, the juvenile saltwater crocodile, was very popular! 🐊

💜From 17-21 August, it is “Bullying No Way” week.
💜Tomorrow after 2nd break, there will be a short, whole school assembly.
💜Students and staff are encouraged to wear ‘a pop of purple’ to show their support of this day of action. If students wear purple clothing, it needs to be sunsafe. Otherwise, they are to wear their regular school uniform.

📚A reminder that our annual ‘Book Week’ parade will be next Thursday morning on the oval.
📚Get those book character costumes ready, Mundingburra State School students and staff!

🔹The new additions to our P-2 playground are ready!
🔹Along with the equipment already available, students can now enjoy a game of futsal or climb and slide on the wooden fort!
🔹We are trialling a year level roster for the futsal field so everyone can have a turn and play safely.
