The Contact Term 4, Week 2

Principal's Message

From the Desk of Kathy Nott - Term 4, Week 1

Good morning Parents/Carers,

 

Welcome back to Term 4.  I hope everyone had an enjoyable break and is ready for a busy Term 4.  It is great to be back and seeing our children settled and ready to learn.

 

Thank you

Thank you to Liselle and Hannah for filling the roles of Relieving Principal and Assistant Principal, Curriculum Leader & Instruction whilst I was on leave.  They did an amazing job and thank you for your support in keeping the school running like clockwork.

 

Also a big thank to Monique & Andrew Brown together with Ruby & Violet who donated money towards our Fun Money tally by recycling a whopping 800 bottles and cans over the school holidays.  Thank you it is very much appreciated.  

 

Behaviour Focus

Our behaviour focus for Week 1 is Safe,

 

We are learning to:

  • Build Resilience

     

What does it look and sound like:

  • Have a device-free sleep
  • Write/talk about a problem
  • Put a problem to the back of your mind
  • Never ever give up

  • Put in boundaries for yourself, stop, no, I'm going to be resilient

     

Turn Up Awards

Once again the big wheel was spun for all students who achieved 90% and above in attendance for Term 3.  The winner of our Turn Up Term Prize for Term 3 was Nasha.

Life Skills Meal Deal

Thank you for your continued support in purchasing a meal each Tuesday to support our Life Skills lessons.  Our students in 4/5/6W are learning valuable skills and enjoy the experience.  We will continue with this program throughout Term 4.  We look forward to bringing some great meals and sweet treats for everyone.

 

EFTPOS at WCPS

We now have EFTPOS available at our school office for all payments.  If you wish to pay for a uniform, excursions etc please do not hesitate to contact our office.

 

Capers Rehearsals

We are looking forward to our next whole school rehearsal that will take place next Wednesday, 22nd October. Please ensure your child is at school by 8:30am on this day so we can get to the TREC on time for rehearsals. We have also noted that some students are yet to supply their costume of black pants and singlet for the performance. If you have not yet provided the costume, could you please send into our office by this Friday, 17th October.  Tickets for CAPERS are now available! Our students will be performing on the 7th and 8th of November. The best seating to watch our students perform is the left side of Side Tier T1 or the right side of Side Tier T3. We look forward to seeing you there!  The link to purchase tickets is: www.trecc.com.au/capers-2025
