SPELLATHON
Not long to go and we will know how
successful our Spellathon has been. The
children have only a few more days to rally
sponsors before their “test”. The last estimate
tells me that Grade 3W is in the winning
position.
CELL PHONES
These are once again creeping in. Please
weigh up the “convenience” factor with every
other aspect of these expensive electronic
gadgets. They disturb the class. They are
used to send inappropriate and hurtful
messages to each other.
Downloading of harmful and disgusting videos
is the new phase, they are expensive and
when “stolen” or lost become the school’s
problem.
CELL PHONES WILL BE CONFISCATED
IF BROUGHT TO SCHOOL.
OUR LITTER PROBLEM
The ground staff try so hard to prepare our
fields for sporting events, clean up and repair
things that are broken at our school. Theirs is
a really thankless job made so difficult by
those who are too lazy to put litter into the
bins. Their time is therefore wasted by picking
up after these lazy “litter bugs”.
CODE OF CONDUCT
Bryandalians learn that conservation of the
environment is the duty of every citizen, all
pupils participate in the recycling programme
and share in the creation and maintenance of
beautiful and litter free grounds”.
It is the responsibility of every Bryandalian to
pick up the litter that pollutes our school
environment.
TRAVELLING BOOKSHOP
THE TRAVELLING BOOKSHOP will be at
school for their "Biggest Sale" yet, on the 22nd
and 23rd of August. This is an excellent
opportunity to stock up on Christmas and
Birthday presents. We look forward to seeing
you there!
