Assistant Principal Report

Hello Everyone,

Bike and Scooter Storage Area

Families who have children ride a bicycle or scooter to school, please remind your child/ren that they are to bring their bike or scooter through the front gate. Bikes and scooters will now be left at the front of the school, next to the storage container. 

We are in the process of organising a long-term solution and until this is in place, we will be using this area to store bikes and scooters at school.

Leave your bike or scooter against the side of the container in this picture.

Pride and Integrity Raffle 

Arriving late to school can have a huge impact on your learning, especially if it happens often. Even arriving 5 minutes late every day adds up to 3 days of learning missed over the year! Arriving 30 minutes late every is the same as missing 18 days learning opportunities over the year. We encourage students to be at school on time.

In recognition of the students who are attending school on time, we have the Pride and Integrity raffle. This is to acknowledge the students demonstrating Pride and Integrity by being ready to learn each day.

Every student who is at school, and in their classroom, before the bell (9am) will have their name added to the class attendance box. So, if they are present every day of the week, on time, they will have 5 entries into the raffle. 

Their class teacher will draw one name from the class box on Friday morning, just after 9am. This person will then go into the whole school draw (this means one student from every class will be in the whole school draw) to be drawn at assembly that afternoon. 

The class winners for Week 3 were: 

FA – Lydia, 1/2A – Elissa, 1/2A – Simon, 1/2B – Ashleigh, 1/2D – Mackenzie, 1/2E – Nhat, 3A – Jaffar, 3B – Nesan, 3C – Yawer, 4A – Leo, 4C – Joshua, 5A – Elia, 5B – Anthony, 5C – Tyson, 6A – John, 6B – Avery, 6C – Ali

I will have an example of Word Web for people to view, just outside of the office, to help explain how to do.

You must collaborate with at least one other person (a friend, parent, classmate, etc) and no more than 3 other people. If you do not collaborate, you will not receive a Caught You Doing Right card for Collaboration.
