FOBISSEA Short Story Competition
The Y5/6 exceptional learners have been writing entries
for the Fobisia Short Story Competition. They had to
write a short story (max 600 words) on the theme
MAGIC? All 7 students wrote fantastic entries and it was
very difficult as we can only choose 1 finalist to send
through. Well done Jennisa Y6, Samantha Y6, Arnon Y6
and Kim Y6 and Jake Y5, KaiaY5 and Sebi Y5.After much
deliberation – because they were ALL of such high
quality, we have decided to send Jennisa Scott’s entry,
with Kaia Lundin’s a VERY close second. If anyone
wants to read them they will be on display in TB2 and
will soon be posted on our St Andrews Green Valley
Facebook. Fingers crossed for Jennisa in the final!

St Andrews Green
Valley Primary Kids
Helping Others.
On the January 18th children from the Fountain of Life
came to play football with students from St Andrews.
We felt very bad for seeing the kids playing football
with clothing that was not appropriate. So the Student
Council decided to ask students to donate any old
sports clothes and shoes. We made an announcement in
assembly asking students to bring in sorts clothes and
shoes that they didn’t need anymore. Some students
brought in bags of clothes and shoes. A representative
from the Fountain of Life came and collected the
donations. Thank you to everyone who donated clothes
and shoes, we are sure the children appreciated the
donation. The student council was really happy to help!
