Good a�ernoon Parents and Caregivers,

What an end to week 7 and what an exci�ng week 8 to come! Thank you firstly to all

those who joined us for our CSPS Character Day and to our students and CSPS team

who are increasingly crea�ve in their costumes each year!

Our parade was followed by Katherine's first ever game of Quidditch led by an

Australian Olympic Quidditch player (who lives here in Kathrine!) Emily Davies.

Thank you to the team from Katherine South (and Mr. Hayles) who came to join us

and made this event such incredible fun! Thank you also to Mr. Smith for being a

very realis�c ‘golden snitch’.

A huge thank you to all members of the community who both organised and joined

us on Saturday night for our Bi-annual CSPS Trivia Night. From the auc�on alone the

school raised over $9,000, with the expected final total to exceed $11,000 on the

night. This is an incredible outcome and my gra�tude and apprecia�on goes out to

all members of the CSPS Fundraising Commi8ee (and their families!) who made this

event possible. A more detailed thank you list can be found on

the following pages as there are so many to say thank you to!

Finally, this week marks our CSPS Choir and Dancers big night

(s)! I will be joining the team in Darwin as our students hit the

stage at the Darwin Entertainment Centre for the 2017 BEAT

Fes�val. This is the culmina�on of months of hard work and

effort by our students and Mrs. Gadd, Ms. Griffey, Mr. Starr and

our families. If you haven't got your �ckets yet, jump onto the

DEC website and

book them quick!

Looking forward to

sharing their

success with you in

the coming weeks.

CasConnect Program

Thank you to those parents who have volunteered

their time to become the FIRST CasConnectors. We

had a very successful meeting on Monday

afternoon to discuss the role and responsibilities of

the job.

We have had a great response from many parents

of our school to provide their contact details. To

make this program a success we need all remaining

forms returned to school as soon as possible. If you

DO NOT want to provide your contact details,

please tick the box at the bottom of the form and

return it to the office.

Our CasConnectors will keep you all posted on

upcoming school news.

Thank you,

CasConnect Team

The CSPS Colour run is NEXT FRIDAY! Don’t

forget you can register your child to receive

fundraising online. Details can be found on the

booklet that was given to all students.

Remember, all fundraising needs to be

completed and submitted to the school by week

10.

The Cas Street Blue Team have made it into the

grand final for the 2nd year in a row! They play

against MacFarlane Primary School and would love

to see as much support as we can give. Please all

available students/teachers come down to the

courts and support the girls. Grand final date and

time will be confirmed soon. They do not play this

Thursday due to the Darwin beat festival.

Miss Racheal
