FIRST LEGO LEAGUE ROBOTICS
Our First Lego League Robotics teams competed at CQU Gladstone Campus on the weekend and achieved some outstanding results.
They have taken out three awards:
· Team Vipers - Innovation Project Award
· Team Calliope Cool Conveyors- Robot Games Award
· Team Cargo Beep Beep - Runners Up Champion‘s Award
These three teams have now been invited to attend the National Competition to be held in Brisbane on 4 December.
A huge thank you must be extended to Mrs Sellin, Mrs Wilkinson, Mrs Mastromonaco and Ms Crookey for all your work and extra hours as coaches. They have given up their time after school and on weekends to support the student’s in building the knowledge and skills that have awarded them such wonderful results.
The student’s will be presented with awards on Parade this coming Friday, November 12.

SCHOOL UNIFORM – DRESS CODE
We have a number of students wearing the incorrect socks to school currently. Our CSS Dress Code clearly stipulates that students are to wear short white or black socks. Please expect contact from your child/ren’s teacher if they are wearing the incorrect socks to school.
CALLIOPE CHRISTMAS CAROLS 2021 – DATE CLAIMER
The Calliope Carols are back on this year, after a break due to COVID restrictions. They will be held on Friday November 26 (Week 8). As in previous years, each year level is learning a song, which they will perform on stage as part of the concert.
It has been noted that the date also coincides with the return of the Year 6 students from their camp. We understand that this will be the end of a big week for these students but we hope that as many as possible will still attend the carols event and perform, as this will be their last carols event before they go to high school.
We hope to see everyone there!
CALLIOPE STATE HIGH SCHOOL ORIENTATION DAYS
All Year 6 students wishing to attend Orientation Days, (November 29 and 30) will need to have returned enrolment packs and attended an enrolment interview – we don’t want to see anyone miss out!
