MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Parents, Caregivers, Students and Staff,

Congratulations and thankyou to everyone for a

highly successful Term 1. There have been a

number of new initiatives and programs that

the school has initiated this year and

indicators are that the student learning

programs will be enhanced as a result.

As I indicated to you last year the school has

received an additional $680,000.00 through

the Federal Government’s National Partnership

(NP). This significant amount of money is to be

used to develop programs that will improve

student learning outcomes. After a very

rigorous evaluation of school based data two of

the areas that were most in need are literacy

and community engagement.

This term we have implemented a very detailed

and intensive three year professional learning

program to improve student literacy skills. All

students from Year 1 – 6 have had their

reading fluency and comprehension assessed

individually using a standard process and we

look forward to reporting their progress over

the year.

The school has also tried to engage more

effectively with parents and caregivers. The

NP funding has allowed us to employ a

Community Liaison Officer (CLO), two days per

week. Mrs Naffa (Maysoun) is at school

Monday and Friday and works with ALL

parents. She has organised parent programs

that run almost every Monday with sessions

being held in English and Arabic.

Last week we held our first parent teacher

conferences for 2012 and it was great to see

so many of you throughout the year. The

teachers have said that they really enjoyed

meeting with parents/caregivers and that

spreading the conferences over the week

meant more time could be spent with you.

Please let us know if you found this more

valuable. Thank you for taking the time to work

with us in educating your children.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

What a wonderful day we had yesterday celebrating everything that

makes us unique at our Multicultural Day. I enjoyed talking to students

and their families about what is important to them and what it means to

be part of our great country. The students enjoyed their trip around the

world, visiting different countries, having their passport stamped, and

learning something new about a place they have heard of but never

visited. Thank you to all the staff who shared a small part of what makes

them unique with our students as well. Another big thank you to our

parents and carers who shared a food item. We had so much food and it

all tasted delicious! There were plenty of full stomachs by the end of the

day. Such a big day, but a great way to end the term!

I have been contacted by concerned members of the public regarding

our students’ safety when walking to and from school over the last

month. We also had a student from our school hit by a car when crossing

the road last week. Thankfully the student was not injured. I ask all

parents to take every opportunity to remind children about road safety.

This is something that should happen regularly. An insert is included in

the newsletter and further information can be found through the website

www.safetytown.com.au

It is also important that adults remember we are role models when it

comes to road safety. Unfortunately there are still far too many parents

and carers who are modelling unsafe practices when crossing the road

or picking up students in the afternoon.

Students should have received their half-yearly report by now. Please

take the time to read through the report with your child. A letter was

included with your child’s report that has some ideas about how to

discuss learning with your child. Parents and carers are also invited to

discuss their child’s report and learning at the beginning of next term.

Interviews will be held from Tuesday 24 July until Friday 27 July.

Information on how to make a booking is included in this newsletter.

As Term 2 draws to an end, I thank everyone for their commitment to

learning at our school. Have a well-deserved break and I look forward to

seeing you back next term!

Mr Ian Tapuska
