Principal’s Report
Welcome to term 3 and we hope everyone had an enjoyable
holiday.
As most of you are aware the school hosted Storm Co during
the holidays and this was a great success again this year.
Unfortunately some of our students didn’t have the best of holi-
days with a number of injuries recorded. Amongst our students
there were: 2 broken fingers, a broken wrist, a fractured ankle
and a broken leg.
Following the heavy rain it has become necessary to postpone
the school’s Athletics Carnival. Weather permitting it will now
be held on Friday in week 2. Because of this there will be no
scripture or assemblies in week 2. For our students to be eligi-
ble for selection to compete at regional level we must hold our
carnival by the end of next week. We apologise for any incon-
venience this may cause.
The change to our playground areas went extremely well this
week. Wet weather meant that we ran to our new wet weather
timetable for most days, though this too went smoothly. Our
students treated each other with respect and it was wonderful to
see the senior students assisting the infants.

Imani George
RESPONSIBLE RESPECTFUL
LEARNER
Wow, Ernie sure is impressed by Imani! We are
very lucky that she has come to Cobar Public
School. Imani always walks safely around the
school and follows teacher instructions. She is
always in the right place and uses equipment for
its purpose. Imani has beautiful manners and is a
sensible member of our school. Ernie says keep
up the great work Imani!
Ernie has been watching Lucy since she arrived
at Cobar Public School. He has noticed her
in class and in the playground being respectful
towards teachers, other students and
volunteers in the canteen. Lucy has lovely
manners, always speaks politely and takes
turns. She has been a wonderful helper in the
school garden. Well done Lucy!
Ernie was blown away by the efforts of Vincent
Mitchell when he visited MCF in Term 2. Vincent was
being prepared for his learning by collecting the
equipment he required for his learning activities.
When he organised himself, he listened carefully to
his teacher’s instructions. Vincent you are a STAR!
