News 30th August 2017
We are very quickly approaching the end of term and with just
over 2 weeks to go our students are well into the swing of
completing assessment in their classrooms. Our year 5 and 6
students are eagerly preparing for their school camp which
occurs in week 10. These students will be flying to Canberra
to experience a rich learning opportunity. They will be visiting
a number of historical sites and have been learning about the
significance of our countries capital city.
This camp would occur without the wonderful support of our
P&C. This year our P&C is contributing $10,000 towards
camp which helps to offset the price for parents.
We also would like to thank Ysolde Harders for her donation
of a beautifully quilted blanket which is being used as a raffle
for our camp, also a thank you to Willow for his donation of
$500 to our P&C to assist with the camp costs. It is very
special to be a part of such a wonderful community who value
education and provide such terrific support for our school.
Signing in
We are very lucky to have parent assistance in classrooms
and on a daily basis have parents who take time out of their
busy days to assist our teachers. We value this support and
are proud of our parents for showing their children such
wonderful support, I just remind parents that when on the
school grounds, you must sign in on arrival to ensure that in
an emergency situation we can accurately check our school
grounds for all visitors. Thank you.
Teacher Aide Day
A big thank you to our wonderful teacher aides who work
within our school to support teachers and students. Without
you, our job would be much more difficult. Friday the 1st is
Teacher Aide Day, which our school collectively celebrated
during Support Week, last month.

Woolworths Earn & Learn 2017
This year we will be participating in the Woolworths Earn & Learn program. Through this
program we will be able to get new educational resources for our school/early learning
centre – and all we need you to do is shop for your groceries at Woolworths. From
Wednesday 26th July to Tuesday 19th September or while stock lasts, we are collecting
Woolworths Earn & Learn Stickers. You will get one Woolworths Earn & Learn Sticker for
every $10 spent (excluding liquor, tobacco and gift cards). Place the Woolworths Earn &
Learn Sticker onto a Woolworths Earn & Learn Sticker Sheet and when it’s complete, the
Sticker Sheet can be dropped into the Collection Box here at the school or at your local
Woolworths. At the end of the promotion, we’ll be able to get some great new equipment. The
range is extensive and offers lots of items ideal for our students – including resources for
Maths, English, Science and some fantastic fun supplies for Arts & Craft, Sport and for our
library. If you’d like to know more visit woolworths.com.au/earnandlearn.
This term in the 1/2/3 Classroom we have been learning about identifying rhyme and rhythm in poetry and changing the adjectives, verbs and nouns to create our own version of a poem. The children have enjoyed working on Humpty Dumpty and Hey Diddle Diddle.
We created our own version of Jack and Jill.
Matt and Phil went up the hill
to collect a bucket of water.
Matt fell in and broke his chin
and Phil came diving after.
In Math we have been working on time and money. We have enjoyed role playing Shop
Keeper, counting and working out change. We have been working on time and identifying
analogue time.
