Principal's Message

From the Desk of Kathy Nott - Term 3, Week 9

Good Afternoon Parents/Carers,

 

Behaviour Focus

Week 9 focus is back to the value of respect.

 

Respect 

Once the words are out, you can’t take them back.

  • Speak kindly 
  • Think about your words and actions and how these affect people-How would I feel if someone said or did this to me?
  • Value the interests, ability and culture of others

School Assembly

It was great to see so many Parents/Carers come to our assembly last Friday.  Congratulations to K/1/2 on your fantastic presentation.  Congratulations to all of our award winners.

 

Quirindi Spring Show

A very big thank you to our parents who took time out to bring your children to the Quirindi Spring Show on Saturday to perform. Congratulations to Bonnie, Emily, Indy, Khloee, Maddison, Parker, Ruby & Tyler who represented Werris Creek Public School and gave a very entertaining performance.  Also, a shout out and thank you to Miss Overell who choreographed the dance, organised costumes and gave up her time to give our students this opportunity.  It is greatly appreciated.

 

Yr 5/6 Excursion to Hill End

Yr 5/6 Excursion to Hill End has arrived and we will be leaving tomorrow morning at 7:00am sharp.  If you could please arrive at school by 6:30am to ensure we leave by 7:00am.  A note was sent home yesterday with some last minute information about our excursion.
