From the Principal
Friday 19th September Yr 6 Excursion returns
End of Term 3
Tuesday 7th October Term 4 Commences
NAIDOC CELEBRATIONS
Our Morgan Street celebrations were an enjoyable learning experience for all groups. Both children and staff deserve a pat on the back for the way they embraced the range of activities
with enthusiasm. All our visiting tutors spoke highly of every group they had. A true “Morgie” cultural acknowledgement.
CHRISTMAS TRAIN
Great excitement last week, when the “Bulldog Man” Adam Thomson and his production crew arrived to write verse 2 of the Aussie Christmas carol with Morgan Street students.
Writing, recording and filming took place here and at various Broken Hill sites like the Big Red Chair and The Living Desert. Now the team has headed to South Australia to a small school with a total indigenous population to write verse 3.
The final verse will be written in Kalgoorlie. They’ll be back…… December 4 when the Indian Pacific rolls into Broken Hill. We invite all Morgie families to come and help us sing the home grown carol at the Broken Hill Railway Station.
VICTOR HARBOR EXCURSION
Year 4 travelled
to Victor Harbor
last week. The
excursion was
really terrific and
the students
enjoyed all of the
activities. We were lucky that the weather stayed
fine so that we could go to the beach and walk
across the causeway to Granite island in comfort.
We were even lucky enough to see the fairy
penguins coming ashore at night and walking to
their burrows. The last part of the bus trip home
was great with a sing-a-long that the students
joined in with.
Child Protection Week Balloon Release
Last Friday alongside all schools in Broken Hill, Morgan Street students participated in a symbolic balloon release to acknowledge the importance of protecting our children.
