On Monday Logan from Ultimate Frisbee came to our school to teach some of our students the skills needed to use a Frisbee.  Ultimate Frisbee is a unique sport which uses a flying disc whilst combining some of the element from sports such as Soccer, Netball and American Football.
As well as being a fun team sport, Ultimate Frisbee also improves hand-eye coordination whilst giving a great cardio workout.
The students played some team games which was a great way for them to improve their communication, fair play and social-emotional skills.

KEEP FUNDRAISING!

We're already two weeks into our fantastic fundraiser, and the excitement is palpable! Our upcoming Crazy Colour Day on Monday 25^th March promises to be a whirlwind of vibrancy as we have a day of fun in the sun!

But it's not just about the spectacle; it's about making a difference. Through your efforts so far, we have raised over $2000 to go towards the upgrade of the basketball court. This means we will get to slime 2 teachers!! Can we raise another $1000, so we can slime some more unlucky teachers?

In next week’s newsletter, we are going to hold a random draw competition. Any student who has raised over $100 will go in the draw to win the chance to slime a teacher.

Remember, there's still time to get involved! Sign up at FUNRUN.COM.AU  and share your fundraising link far and wide.
