ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL REPORT
From The Assistant Principal
Notables
Our Year 6 students celebrated the “Night of the Notables” in a very different way this year. What is normally a community event held in the evening became a day event which was filmed for parents and friends to view at home.
I congratulate the students for their mature approach to these changes and embracing them so positively. The performances on the day were amazing and I often felt I was speaking to the notable themselves.
We had a range of Australian notables on display including entertainers, explorers, scientists and artists. Thank you to Mrs Tighe and Mrs Suartama for leading our students in their learning and study of their notables this term and for organising a fantastic, COVID friendly event.
Sun Smart
As we approach Term 4 and the onset of warmer weather it is a great opportunity to discuss sun safety with your children and being sun smart at school. We are extremely proud to be recognised by the Cancer Council of Australia as a “Sun Smart School” and there are a few key points for our students to remember to assist in keeping this title.
- Hats: we ask that students remember to wear their hats whenever outside the classroom, including at arrival and dismissal times.
- Water Bottles: Students need to be bringing their own water bottles at this time as our bubblers are not in use due to COVID-19 restrictions.
- Sunscreen: There is sunscreen in all classrooms and the students are encouraged to apply this before playtimes. We also encourage the application of this at home in preparation for the school day.
- Play Spaces: We have endeavoured to provide shaded spaces on all of our playgrounds for the students to take time out of the sun during their breaks.
