I would like to take the opportunity to thank Linton Howarth from the West Wyalong

Aboriginal Lands Council for his visit to our school yesterday. He spoke to staff about the

importance of creating a culturally safe environment for Aboriginal students and how we

can thread the Aboriginal content into each key learning area. We look forward to

continuing our strong partnership with the WWALC in the future.

On the last day of Term 2, we held our school cross country at Redman oval.

Congratulations to all the participants. All students ran their best and had a great day.

Well done to our age champions. Unfortunately there will be no district carnival for our

students to attend this year.

This term will continue to operate in accordance with the Covid-19 guidelines to ensure

we keep our students and staff safe. During this term we will celebrate Education Week

and Book week. Students will participate in a zoom debating day with other small schools

and we will hold our school athletics carnival. Government guidelines and restrictions will

determine if there can be parental involvement. We will keep you informed as soon as we

know.

We look forward to another term full of learning and opportunities for all our students so

that they can shine. Your child's learning and development is our core business, if at any

time you wish to discuss your child’s progress please don’t hesitate to contact the office

and arrange a meeting.

Have a wonderful week!
