Hi 4/5 Families,

Welcome to the end of Week 4!

Swimming and Double Dipping Success:
Last week, we had a full week of swimming and double dipping at Port Huon Sports Centre. Water safety and swimming are vital parts of life in Tasmania, and it's essential for our students to learn to be safe and competent in water environments. I was absolutely blown away by our 4/5 students as they overcame challenges, conquered fears of water, mastered treading techniques, and learned all the swimming strokes—truly demonstrating our Franklin Culture!

Congratulations and Shout-Outs:
A huge congratulations to our Term 1 class captains, Marlee and Jesse, and our SRC members, Archie, Maisy, and Maddy. Your leadership and enthusiasm inspire us all!

Athletics Carnival:
Thursday's Athletics Carnival was fantastic and run superbly by Mr Mitchell—what a phenomenal HPE teacher we are so lucky to have! A massive thank you also goes to all the family members who volunteered their time; your support helped the day run so smoothly.

Well Done, Everyone:
Well done to all the students who gave it their all. I hope you can catch up on some much-needed R&R this weekend. I look forward to seeing you all next week!

Warm regards,

Tiarna Donnelly
