Teaching, Learning and Book Club
Students Supporting Students
Last Thursday I had the pleasure of observing our Year 6 students facilitate a sports compeition for our younger students. I couldn't help but smile as our leaders supported students at their point of need. I watched as second by second, minute by minute, participants were scaffolded and tasks differentiated so that all students, with varying abilities, could experience success in the set activities.
Reflecting on this, I am so proud of teaching and learning culture at TPS. Our classrooms are varied in each students' capabilities and skills, yet our young leaders knew, perhaps through their experiences in the classroom, that students can achieve success with the right support and challenge. They showed that no matter what your starting point, there is always the opportunity for growth.
Happy learning!

Book Club
Scholastic Book Club is a service offered to students, parents and teachers. Brochures advertising a variety of books and computer software are sent home with each student, approximately twice a term.
Book Club has closed for 2024. We are waiting on our final deliveries. Next issue will be in term 1, 2025. Thank you everyone who has supported Book Club throughout the year. The rewards earned by the school have bolstered classroom libraries and curriculum resources.
Purchase of the books is not compulsory and there is no obligation. If you do wish to purchase any goods simply log into the Book Club site www.scholastic.com.au/LOOP and follow the prompts. All Book Club orders must be ordered and paid for via LOOP. Do not send order forms and cash to school. When the order arrives at school, books are sent home with students.
