Every public school asks for
a small contribution towards
the many costs associated
with education programs. At
Glenvale we ask that
parents contribute $35 per
child each year. This has
not changed for many years
and is a very small
contribution by comparison
with other schools even
though our costs can be

A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL What a wonderful day we had
at the Glenvale Games
athletics carnival on Friday
last week. It was a fabulous
last day for Education Week
2015. Thank you to all the
families who came along to
help us and joined in the fun.
Everyone had a great day.
Many thanks to the 22 young
people and staff from Wyong
Christian Community School
who helped out on the day
and to the members of the
Tuggerah Lakes National
Servicemen’s Association who
donated their time and money
to provide a free BBQ lunch
for everyone. Your help
contributed to the success of
the day. It was a glorious day
with the weather absolutely
beautiful all day. Everyone
had fun, but the yellow Emus
won the cup at the end of the
day . Congratu lat ions
everyone.
Regards,
Gwenda Williamson

SCHOOLS TREE DAY We had a small group of absolutely fantastic parents come along to help on Schools
Tree Day as well as, on the North Entrance campus, a group of volunteers from
Coastcare. Many thanks for your help. We weeded and planted gardens and made a
start on getting these areas tidied up. As well as being much more attractive, they are
now safer from such things as spiders and snakes as we head into the summer months.
Many, many thanks for your help. There are some photos on the back page of this
newsletter for you to enjoy.
Congratulations to all the students from Glenvale who received awards for excellence at
Wednesday’s awards ceremony at Narara Valley High School. It was wonderful to see our
students going up on to the stage with students from all of the other schools in our learning
community. The students behaved in a manner which did them great credit.
The Glenvale School recipients were:
Skye McDougall Dante Murphy Brodie Martin
Zayne Douglas Mahalia Serrano Dylan Grant
