Welcome back to Term 3! Whilst it hasn’t been the start that some of our families were expecting, we appreciate your support and understanding. We will continue updating families of the dynamic COVID situation via the Schoolzine app (SZapp).  If you do not have this app, can I strongly urge you to download it so that you can stay as up to date as possible. Please contact the School office should you require any assistance.

If you enter the school building for any amount of time, we ask that you check in using the Check In Tas QR code. These are on every entrance.  If you are in the school longer than 15m minutes we ask that you sign in at the front office also. If you have any questions about check-in, please direct your queries to Ms Rochelle Cunningham.

Breakfast Club

Due to a delay in the refurbishing of the kitchen area, breakfast club will not be starting in Week 2 as previously announced. We will let students and families know as soon as possible when the Breakfast Club will be opening.

Wellness Competition Winners

Burnie Primary has won $2500 to go towards student wellbeing initiatives in the school. Thank you to Kmart and NBL. We look forward to working with the Student Representative Council on how this money will be spent in the school.

Our library was given an 'uplift' during the Term 2 break, freshly painted, new carpet and rearrangement of shelving.  The Library is looking fabulous with many students commenting on how fresh looking it is now.

10/Under Development Netball Tryouts for the Devon Carnival are being held on Tuesday 3rd August @ 3:45pm - 5:15pm in the Marist Gym. This is open to both boys and girls.

This will be the training night up until the carnival on September 19^th. Parents will need to sign children in with their name, age, contact number and preferred positions before tryouts begin so I suggest getting there a few minutes before please.

Children are to wear sports clothing and sneakers and bring a drink bottle also.

We ask that all adults sign in before entering the gym and use COVID safe measures at all times.

The spring roster is $60 or early bird price of $50 if paid before the 18^th September 2021.

All Players must be registered by the 3^rd game.

Families who would be eligible to apply for ’ tickets to play’  (to assist with the cost of registration) this can be found on the BNA website or review the document in this newsletter.
