Flynn is a deserving Super
Student because he has
continued to challenge himself
academically throughout the
year. Flynn works exceptionally
hard in class and he
consistently seeks feedback on
his learning. Flynn will ask
relevant questions if he is
unsure and loves to learn new
things, particularly during our
maths program. As a leader of
our school, Flynn has put his
hand up for numerous sporting
events and tackles each task
with a positive attitude. You
have an extremely bright
future, Flynn.
What an amazing year Seb
has had. Seb always displays
our schools key values and it
has been an absolute joy
seeing him grow in both
confidence and resilience in

Seb displays a real give it a
go attitude towards his
learning and he should be
extremely proud of all the
achievements he has made
this year. You are a fantastic
role model for 5/6G and I
know you will continue
working hard going into
grade 6.

Notes from Mrs Hulonce…
Portland Bay School Buildings-
The process for removing these facilities has
begun in earnest this week. On Monday, 11th
November we will have cranes in operation in
the front car park, removing some of the first
structures. The trucks and cranes will be using
the front entry gate for both entry and exits
throughout the day.
PLEASE NOTE:
This will mean that parking and student drop offs
will be disrupted. Quick drop off in the morning
will be necessary, using the main entry and exit
gates as normal.
For student collection, we recommend parents
use the rear carpark (entry at the bottom of the
Fawthrop Street hill). If this is not possible, quick
collections in the afternoon will be necessary,
using the main entry and exit gates as normal.
Staff will be on duty as normal to assist and
ensure safety of all.
2020 Planning-
We are now creating class groupings for 2020.
Our Consultative Committee have determined
grade structures- 9 classes with an aim for
numbers less than 21 in each grade. We believe
in making the best use of our human resources
(and fabulous staff) to maximize student
learning opportunities. Staffing process results
will be announced when confirmed.
All students are being asked once again to
name four friends they would like to be in a
class with and we will use the usual computer
software process to form class lists. We have a
School Council approved class formation policy
which guides this process. This is a last call for
any parents with requests to come to the office
by 8th November. Thank you.
Remembrance Day-
A small ceremony will be held at Bundarra at
10.50am on Monday. We will have students
representing us at the Portland event also. Lest
we forget.
Grade 6 Netbooks-
These will be collected in the final weeks of term
4, so we can prepare them for use in secondary
school in 2020. We encourage families to start
thinking about saving data to external storage,
such as flash/ USB drives, as all will be wiped
during this process.
Have fun!
Persistence
1. Slow down
2. Say thank you
3. Smile
4. Take a deep breath
5. Compliment someone
6. Appreciate small things
7. Focus on awesomeness
8. Notice three things you are grateful for
right now – in this moment
Gratitude is a practice which
reminds us to be grateful for all
the things we have in our lives.
It helps us focus on the positive
parts of our lives and can
change our outlook when we
realise how many things we
have to be thankful for. We all
have something to be thankful
for if we look hard enough!
Gratitude is not always
automatic - it takes practice!
But if we show persistence we
can develop an attitude of
gratitude.

Begin a gratitude diary; write 3
things each day you are grateful
for. Over time, increase this to 5, 8
then 10 things each day. This can
be as simple as appreciating the
clothes on your back or for the
sunshine. Notice how you feel
after writing in your diary – do you
feel calm? Content? Happy?
Well done Haylie
