On Thursday 24th October students from Snake Valley Campus participated in Walk to school day. Students walked to school with their teachers and some parents and then enjoyed some breakfast when they arrived at school.

Students were extra excited on this months walk as they are participating in Walk to school month.

Thanks to the Pyrenees Shire all students received a pedometer to count their steps each day.

For each day they walk to and from school they will go into the raffle to win some great prizes at the end of the month.

Thank you to all the dads, grandparents and special friends that attended the Father’s Day breakfast last Friday.

We hope the fathers enjoyed their bacon and egg sandwiches and were able to enjoy some special times with their children on Sunday!

On Thursday the grade 3 / 4’s braved the cold weather to enjoy a day at Pax Hill Scout Camp.

During the day the students participated in a range of activities, which included orienteering, exploring a mine, a confidence course and bush golf. These activities allowed students to build on teamwork and explore why it is important to work as a team.

Students will continue to use the skills learnt while exploring the topic - Explorers, Navigators and Traders for the remainder of the term.
