Learning, Integrity, Honesty, Personal Best, Positive Relationships
Dear Taylors Hill Community, Thank you This will be our final newsletter for the year, therefore I would like to take the opportunity to say thank you to the many parents who volunteer their time to help out in a myriad of ways including classroom programs, excursions, in the Learning Centre, as School Council members and at special events. A special thank you to the Parents and Friends members who successfully organised various fundraising events throughout the year including our Movie night, Mothers and Father’s Day stalls, Easter and Christmas raffles and School Banking for our students. A big thank you must also go to our staff, teaching and non-teaching. They are a dedicated and professional team who are extremely supportive of each other and are committed to ensuring the educational needs and well-being of every child in the school are catered for. I would also like to thank the students for the manner in which they approach all aspects of their school life, as well as the way they endeavour to display our school values on a daily basis. In particular I would like to thank our School Captains, Natalie and Frances, for the outstanding role models and leaders they have been for our school. We can all be justifiably proud of our school and its community! Finally, to all our Grade 6 students who will complete their primary schooling on the 21st of December. Congratulations on your personal best achievements and we wish you all the best as you commence the next exciting stage in your education journey. I am looking forward to celebrating with them at their Graduation Ceremony next Tuesday evening. 2019 Staff In 2019 we have a number of new staff joining us next year to add to our already dynamic and committed team.

2019 Student Leadership Team
Developing the qualities of leadership and responsibility is an important element of the curriculum at Taylors Hill Primary School. We aim to provide students with a range of opportunities to grow in self-confidence and
take on increasing responsibilities.
Leadership requires enthusiasm, passion and a positive attitude for what it is you want to complete or change.
Leadership is also about working with and trusting others to achieve a common vision. We have many
examples of strong student leaders in our school and it was pleasing to have so many high quality candidates
to choose our School and House Captains, Enviro team leaders and eSmart leaders from and we are looking
forward to working closely with them to build their leadership capacity.
