Principal's Report
Principal's Message
Boambee School Choir
Wishing our Boambee Choir all the best as they perform tonight at the Festival of Choral Music at the Sydney Opera House. We are so proud of you! Congratulations to Mel Sciortino, and sincere thanks for your outstanding leadership and education of this group.
Go Matildas!
I Hope you all tuned in on Saturday afternoon to watch the Matildas - what a game! We are now scheduled to play England in the Semi Final on Wednesday 16th August.
Boambee Girls Soccer
During this week we also have Mia Ryan and Summer Barden playing at the NSW State Soccer Championships. Congratulations to Summer who has been named captain of this team, a very impressive effort with Summer being still in Year 5 and having another year yet to play at this level.
Bad luck to our girls soccer team who were knocked out of the PSSA competition this week, with a nil all scoreline the game then went into extra time and remained at nil all. The game was then decided on corners, not a great way to lose a knockout game but our girls were excellent in their effort and sportsmanship.
Kindy Transitions
Last week, and each week for the next 4 months, we will host small groups of our 2024 Kindy cohort. Our letter writing buddies meet our new students at the gate and then take them to class for an hour. The familiar face helps our new students to feel even more comfortable in the new environment. The session went very successfully, and we look forward to our next group this Thursday.
NAPLAN
If your child is in Year 3 or 5, please make sure you check your bag for their results which were sent home on Friday. Once again, our students have done exceptionally well, with average scores higher than statistically similar schools.
Interviews
If you haven't booked your interviews with your teachers yet please check your children's bags and Seesaw for your booking link. The interviews are a crucial part of the teaching and reporting cycle, with crucial information being shared about your children's progress and their next learning goals.
