Dear 3 / 4 K,

We have got a visiting performance to our school next week.  The show is called ‘Ghana Beat My Drum’ and will be performed by Jonas who was born in Ghana, Africa.  Jonas is a musician.  This fits in perfectly with our Harmony Week activities this week as Jonas will be playing music from a different culture.  It only costs $5 and money and forms are due on Monday.

You will be able to work on your Inquiry publishing during our computer lab time today.  Some people will have to finish their On Demand testing.  I will explain what is expected of your Inquiry work after Library.

Our school photos will be taken tomorrow.

Have a great day,

From Mr. Kilmartin
