Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) Every year, all schools in Australia participate in the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). The NCCD process requires schools to identify information already available in the school about supports provided to students with disability. These relate to legislative requirements under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 and the Disability Standards for Education 2005, in line with the NCCD guidelines (2019).

Information provided about students to the Australian Government for the NCCD includes:

year of schooling

category of disability: physical, cognitive, sensory or social/emotional

level of adjustment provided: support provided within quality differentiated teaching practice, supplementary, substantial or extensive.

This information assists schools to:

formally recognise the supports and adjustments provided to students with disability in schools

consider how they can strengthen the support of students with disability in schools

develop shared practices so that they can review their learning programs in order to improve educational outcomes for students with disability.

The NCCD provides state and federal governments with the information they need to plan more broadly for the support of students with disability. The NCCD will have no direct impact on your child and your child will not be involved in any testing process. The school will provide data to the Australian

Red Certificates

Gold / Red Gold / Green Gold Certificates Garden Club Our garden club had a fantastic time last Thursday with local olive grower Katie Alhovirta of Budgee Grove. Katie brought some fresh olives, still on their branches, and showed the kids how to squeeze the fruit to test for oil content. Garden club had a taste of super fresh olive oil - harvested and pressed only a few weeks ago, along with some pesto made with the oil and some salty pickled olives - YUM!! Katie shared some videos too of the trees being harvested. We now have a big bottle of 2019 Budgee Grove Extra Virgin Olive Oil to make our weekly salad dressing. Thankyou so much for sharing your time and wonderful knowledge with us Katie!

Touch Football Report CVPS played Mudgee Public School in the first round of the NSW PSSA state knockout last Wednesday. The girls were defeated 5-0 by a well-drilled MPS team and the boys won 5-3. Both teams played well and demonstrated excellent sportsmanship throughout their games. There are a number of year four students in both teams, with an eye on developing and improving the skills of the students for future competitions. A big thank you to parents and carers who were able to come and support the teams. The boys now play Gulgong Public in the next round. CVPS has the home game. Thanks Mr Armstrong and Mrs Treverrow.

Multicultural Perspectives Public Speaking Competition Congratulations to our students, Dusty May, Skye Simpson and Phoebe Virgona who represented our school at the Western Local Final of The Multicultural Perspectives Public Speaking Competition which was held at Dubbo West Public School. The students were required to present a prepared speech and all spoke with confidence on a variety of topics. They were then given a topic and had to prepare an impromptu speech in five minutes! Special congratulations to Dusty and Skye who were both awarded a Highly Commended in their sections! What a wonderful achievement in an extremely high quality competition. Unfortunately, Bessie Nicholson was unable to attend due to an injury but should be congratulated on her preparation efforts and enthusiasm. It has been an absolute pleasure working with such delightful and dedicated students and I'm sure they have gained valuable knowledge and skills from the experience. Special thanks to the parents who supported the students on the day. Sarah O'Connell
