Transcript of Lake Munmorah Public School...Thank you to those who came along and the teachers who stayed to be...
The school was placed in lockdown today due to an incident in the
Carters Road precinct. Please be assured that all students and staff
followed the procedures and were safe.
Principal’s Report
This week we feature Year 2. This learning year builds on those reading,
mathematical and general knowledge skills learned in Kinder and Year 1.
Children in Year 2 begin to tackle more complex reading and writing tasks
and consolidate their basic skills on which future learning really depends.
The teachers on Year 2 this year are:
Carpark
Thank you to all those families who worked around the staff carpark closure
today. We are working to create new spaces in the school for students
regarding the bike area and play spaces.
Lake Munmorah Public School is building a respected and safe place for all students and our community. When open, our staff carpark is a very busy area with vehicles coming in and out. We ask that students and parents do not walk through the carpark gates and into the carpark. Thank you for being respectful and enabling all students to enjoy a safe, respectful school. Yarn Up The Yarn Up was held yesterday with families braving the rain to meet up
with teachers and grab a bite to eat. It was great to see some of our past
students arrive with families and let us know how well they were doing in
high school. Thank you to those who came along and the teachers who
stayed to be part of this event.

Young Leaders Day
What an excellent experience for our school leaders attending the Young Leaders Day on
Monday. Not only do they get to meet student leaders from other schools, but they also get to
meet some very interesting guest speakers and inspirational people. Well done to the team!
Zone Swimming
Congratulations to all the students who competed at the Zone Swimming Carnival on
Wednesday. It was a fantastic day for all the competitors, with Hunter, Coco, Havi and Carissa
making it through to the Sydney North Carnival at Homebush later in the term. All competitors
displayed excellent behaviour and sportsmanship and made our school proud. Best of luck to
the four representatives moving to the next level. We look forward to hearing about their efforts
at this event.
In further sports news, we wish the following students good luck in their upcoming events:
• Boys Cricket Team at the Gala day on Tuesday
• Josh at the Sydney North Tennis Trials
• Duncan and Cohen at the Combined CC Rugby League Trials
• Jack, Koby and Brody at the Sydney North Cricket Trials
High School visits
I have been in regular contact with Ms Fleming, the Relieving Principal at Lake Munmorah High
School. I know the enrolment forms for high school have gone to families in Year 6 and we
have been planning some additional and/or earlier visits for our Year 6 students. I look forward
to sharing these with you as they are finalised.
Please return the High School Expression of Interest forms as soon as possible.
Don’t forget—Wear your best smile (and full school uniform, of course!) for the school
photos on the 13th March.

Together we can make change. Everyone has a role to play in supporting young people in dealing with
bullying and helping to energise positive discussions about the issue.
National definition of bullying for schools:
Bullying is an ongoing and deliberate misuse of power in relationships through repeated verbal, physical
and/or social behaviour that intends to cause physical, social and/or
psychological harm. It can involve an individual or a group misusing
their power, or perceived power, over one or more persons who feel
unable to stop it from happening. Bullying can happen in person or
online, via various digital platforms and devices, and it can be obvious
(overt) or hidden (covert). Bullying behaviour is repeated, or has the
potential to be repeated, over time (for example, through sharing of
digital records). Bullying of any form or for any reason can have immediate, medium and long-term
effects on those involved, including bystanders. Single incidents and conflict or fights between equals,
whether in person or online, are not defined as bullying.

PBL News
This week our PBL Committee held the second PBL meeting of the year. At our meetings, which are attended by
Classroom Teacher and Student Learning Support Officer representatives, our Learning Support Teacher, Mrs
Dyson-Smith, one of our Assistant Principals, Mrs Radley, our Principal, Mrs Baldwin and Deputy Principal, Ms
Weekes. One of the tasks of the committee at each meeting is to carefully review behaviour data from the previous
three weeks to see which areas need to be addressed within PBL lessons.
Our data this month reveals that students need reminding of appropriate behaviour in the bathrooms. Therefore,
this is our PBL focus for week 7.
The key messages are:
I go to the bathroom at an appropriate time
I go, flush, wash and leave
I leave the toilet as clean as I found it
I inform teachers of any problems
This week classes completed a PBL buy in survey to choose preferred activities for our Term 1 PBL Reward Day,
which will be held on 3rd
April. On this day, students buy into an activity using the Lakeys they have earned
throughout the term by displaying Respect, Responsibility and doing their Personal Best. Activities will be
preselected and a note will be sent home if students choose activities requiring some home preparation (eg. Mufti
or crazy socks).
