PLEASE REMEMBER we are an ‘egg & nut free’ school: no eggs,

peanut butter, nuts or nutella spread to come to school at any

time. Please assist us to keep our students safe. Thank you.

TEACHERS ARE ON YARD DUTY FROM 8:45am

Please do not send your child or children to school early as there are no teachers assigned to yard duty and your children will be unsupervised outside. If you are needing to have your child arrive at school early then the safest thing is to book them into Before School Care. Please do not rely on them going to the Library every morning as there are times when there is no teacher available to be in the Library before school. There is no interschool sport training this term so therefore there is no need for Yr 5 and 6 students to be here at 8am for training on a Friday.

PRINCIPALS’ DAY

This Friday, 3 August, marks Principals’ Day, an opportunity to celebrate the wonderful contribution principal-class members make to the lives of children, families and the broader community.

Having been a principal for close to 29 years, I understand the challenges that come with the role. But with those challenges also comes significant rewards and deep levels of pride.

Here at EVPS we have a Principal Team of dedicated educators who strive to make our school the best that it can be for students, staff and the community. If you get a chance tomorrow please acknowledge our Assistant Principals for the great work that they do.

FUNDRAISING REQUEST

If you are one of the families from Prep-Yr 3 who are yet to return their money or chocolates please do so tomorrow so that the Fundraising Committee can prepare for the finalisation of the fundraiser.

PLANNING FOR 2019

If you have a child who turns 5 before April 30 and you intend sending them to EVPS in 2019 please complete an enrolment form as soon as possible. Can you please remind friends and relatives that we are looking for accurate numbers as soon as possible so that we can organise grade numbers and staffing. Thank you for your assistance.

CENSUS DAY

Friday 3rd august is the official mid year census day for Victorian schools. Our student enrolment is currently 1389.

PREPS 100 DAYS OF SCHOOL

Tomorrow our Prep students and staff will be celebrating 100 days of school with a display of their 100 day projects open to the parents after school. The Principal Team will be checking out the displays during the day and the Prep Team will have a great day of activities planned for the Preps to mark this important day.

5/6 SPORT PROGRAM 2018

WINTER DIVISIONAL FINALS TERM 3:

Divisional Boys/Mixed Netball Finals– held at Mill Park Basketball Stadium on Thursday July 25th.

BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT (Year 5-6) Friday August 17th and September 12th

All parents and friends are invited to come along and support PPPS students from

9.30am-2.30pm at the Mill Park Basketball Stadium located next to the Stables shopping centre, Childs Road. Please remember to applaud both teams efforts and understand that school sport is different to community or weekend sport in the way it is played and umpired. If there is

anything that you would like to address on the day please see Sebastian Scanu who will be at each event.

GYMNASTICS PROGRAM FOR YEARS 3 AND 4, Term 3, 2018

Gymnastics is an important part of our Physical Education Curriculum at EVPS and PIT Gymnastics has been a provider of Gymnastic Programs in the Northern region of Melbourne for 25 years. Gymnastics is all about learning to control your body in a wide range of situations. With the proliferation of extreme sports such as skate boarding, water and snow skiing, ski boarding and roller blading, children need to further develop, through aspects of fitness – strength, muscular and cardio-vascular endurance and motor abilities – agility, flexibility, balance, aerial awareness and correct posture, to participate in these and more

traditional sporting activities, in a safe and confident manner. We want the children to

experience success and enjoyment within a gymnastics environment that has fully qualified coaches and professional gym equipment.

In term 3, we are offering a five-week gymnastics program at PIT Gymnastics, with each session running for 1 hour. All PIT Gymnastics staff are fully qualified gymnastic coaches under the National Coaches Accreditation Scheme. Our school has been booked in for 5 sessions (year 3) and 5 sessions (year 4) every Thursday with two classes attending each session at a time. The first session is to commence at 9.30am and the last at 1.30pm.

DIVISIONAL NETBALL BOYS/MIXED

On the 25th of July, the EV1 Mixed netball team

competed in the district finals. In the first match it was EV1 vs Whittlesea PS. Both teams came out strong and played a great match and EV1 came out with the win. The following two games were played against Marymede Boys team and Mill Park Heights Mixed. Both of these games were extremely competitive and our mixed team pushed to stay in both games but unfortunately lost both games. The EV1 mixed team tried their best, remained positive throughout the day and continued to encourage each other and build one another up throughout the competition! Well done to the EV1 mixed team! A huge thank you to Katherine Finey (year 6 teacher) who coached the team and took them on the day to compete.

A story about the Change2Walking Program

THE TERRIFIC, FIRST-CLASS, PREMIUM WALK TO THE SCHOOL!

Today I felt a very important person in E.V.P.S because I joined in the “walk to school program.” Do you know walking to school is fun, energetic and exploring?

On 14th June was not a bright, sunny day. I didn’t see the beautiful blue sky. The sky was grey in colour. It was full of rain clouds. Any of these reasons didn’t get me down. I really, really wanted to walk to school.

It was a tricky adventure for me to walk to school. Do you know why? Let me tell you! I’m not living within walkable distance to the school. Not only that, I go to BSC (Before School Care) every day. On Thursday we left home at 7.10am. This was 30 minutes earlier than the usual time. We parked our car at the Great Bromes Road. My walking journey started from this road. Me and my sister rode our scooter. Mum was walking with us. It was freezing cold. However, we were lucky as it wasn’t raining.

While I was riding I saw leaves dancing in the wind, singing birds, active people and mother nature. Surprisingly, teachers had already started work. I saw a gigantic truck. Some people were at the bus stop waiting for the bus.

Mum told my sister and me to stop when we had to cross the road. We looked for cars, I listened and thought before we crossed. When it was safe to cross we hopped off from the scooter and walked faster to cross the road safely.

When I was walking I felt relaxed with fresh air. I felt energetic too.

Finally I arrived at the Zebra crossing near school. There was a sign, “congratulations you have arrived”. I was soooooooo proud.

My Mum signed me in BSC and said good bye. I knew Mum and my sister had to walk back to the car. After school Mum said she didn’t get late to work.

I truly enjoyed the walk.
