A reminder to please be considerate when parking around the school, this includes parking on verges or curbs. We have received a special request from one of our neighbours (and past Micklefield family) directly across from our front gate, not to park on their curb as they currently redoing their grass.
The Micklefield wheelie bag, sold at The school Shop, will only be available toward the end of this year. This bag is an import and none of the local suppliers produce this bag. Apologies for the inconvenience. The smaller Micklefield satchel and bigger backpack are currently available.
The updated 2024 sport and extra-mural programme is available on the Edana App, under Documentation. Please check both the Term 1 and 4 (Summer) and the Term 2 and 3 (Winter) schedules when doing your planning. All information with regards to the private extra-murals on offer is available on the Edana App under Documentation, Sport/Extra-murals. Please liaise directly with the extra-mural providers.
Jeanne-Marie Engelbrecht will be at Micklefield on Tuesday 27 February to fit gum guard moulds for those pupils who have ordered. These are expensive custom-made gum guards and are more suited to the older girls. Shop bought gum guards are absolutely fine for the hockey season. Forms have been handed out to any interested girls this week. Completed forms and proof of payment must be given to Sandi Blackbeard by Monday 26 February.

A sneak preview of some of the incredible Fancy Hats that will form part of the Fancy Hat Parade on Sports Day.
There was a spash of green, red and blue in the neighbourhood on Thursday as our Gr 3-7s ran the Inter-House Cross Country. There was great spirit amongst the houses and the girls ran their hearts out. The results will be announced at Sports Day.
Grade 1 and 2 acting out an exciting scene from a very well known fairytale.
Grade 6s in drama class passionately protesting!
The Grade 3s asked if they could bring props to drama, and along came the contents of their toy cupboards!
Grade 4s had a wonderful outing to The Museum of Childhood. They learnt about Children’s rights, played old fashioned games, listened to stories and explored old toys. What a fun way to learn about the past.
Grade 4s working very hard on solving subtraction equations and having so much fun playing a fish game!
