To Our MLC Students and Families, we would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Safe New Year.

Thank you for your support and God bless you all this holiday season,

MLC Teachers

Evening,

As the school year comes to an end, now the clean-up and pack away begins. Please remember to send an extra bag to school tomorrow to help carry home old workbooks and artwork that has been taken down.

 

Christmas Lunch and Colour Run  – Tuesday 10^th December

On Tuesday 10^th December, all students will be involved in the Whole School Christmas Lunch and Colour Run.  Students are invited to join the Christmas theme by wearing ‘Christmasy’ clothes on that day.  Lunch will consist of chicken, chips and salad, with a drink and ice cream.  If your child has a food allergy that needs to be considered in this menu, please ensure that your child’s class teacher is aware of this.

We would love some more helpers to prepare and serve the food, so if you are available to help from 11 am, please meet us in the Bukatilla kitchen.

After lunch students will be involved in the Water Day and Colour Run.  This will include several land-based water activities and conclude with a ‘colour run’ around the oval. We have purchased colour run powder so be prepared for very colourful students to come home. White is the best colour to wear for a colour run and so students may wish to get changed into white clothes for this activity.  Please bring a bag containing:

• Old pants/shorts, sandals or thongs and a white or light coloured shirt – which will become very colourful!
• An old towel – to be used to dry off after the activities and for the car trip home.
• Goggles – optional for the colour run and splash activities
• Garbage bag fashioned into a smock (optional but a great idea for the car trip home!)

The colour run powder is non-toxic and usually washes out of clothes in one or two washes (with a little help from Napisan). Children who participate in this event will have lots of fun but expect that they will get very messy.  The colour run powder will be thrown by adults only.

Parents may wish to change their own children back into dry and clean clothes before going home, and the change rooms in Bukatila may be used for this purpose.

The colour run will happen at the end of the school day and parents are welcome to join us for the fun.
