Camp tip:3

Children should practise packing and unpacking their school bag independently.

  • Congratulations to Kwan Ho of 3K! He came 55th out of all the Year 3’s in the WORLD in the World Education Day maths competition.
  • Well done to all the children in Year 3 who remember to bring fruit and vegetables to school for snack on ‘Fruity Friday’.
  • Children are now borrowing books from the Learning Centre. Please ensure your child returns any books borrowed after two weeks.
  • Please remember that we have a no nut policy at BHS due to some children having severe allergies. This includes peanut butter sandwiches and nuts in cookies or cakes.
  • Please ensure that ALL uniform (including shoes) is clearly labelled with your child’s name.
