RHYS CULL CLAYTON-JAK COLLING

Lyndan Cummins

RESPONSIBLE RESPECTFUL

LEARNER

Rhys has been noticed by Ernie always being

in the right place at the right time. He is

always honest with everything he does and

he is a very thoughtful student towards his

peers and teachers.

Keep up the great work Rhys.

Clayton–Jak has been spotted by Ernie

displaying respect and helping other

students. He was sharing equipment and

teaching others how to hold and kick the

ball during Auskick.

Well done Clayton-Jak!

This week Ernie has been spending every single lunch time on

the oval. He has been watching students play soccer and football,

but the thing that really caught his eye was what was happening

underneath the trees in our student’s 'tribes' game. He was very,

very, very happy to see Lyndan Cummins getting along with all his

friends and following all the rules of the game. Lyndan was also

spotted resolving problems peacefully. Sometimes even Ernie can’t

tell the difference between sticks! Keep up the great work Lyndan,

Ernie is very proud!
