We’ve had such a busy start to the year. It’s
hard to believe that we are halfway through
week 5 already.
All students in years 7-10 have received a 2017
Assessment Booklet. This outlines the
assessments that they have due over the course
of the year. There is a cardboard calendar
inside that students can display at home as a
reminder of the tasks they have due.
This year, students in Years 5/6 are running
UCS YUM. They are putting a great deal of
time and effort into the business and are
working hard to get their vegetable gardens
started. Year 4 are helping with the selling of
the produce down the street each week. This is
doing wonders for their confidence as they
have to converse with a range of people. Keep
up the great work Mrs McClintock and
students!
Term 1 is one of the busiest terms for sport.
Last Thursday we had the Lower Lachlan
carnival. We have 12 students who have
qualified to go to the Western carnival, which
is a fantastic effort. We also took home the
handicap trophy, which is based on student
numbers. A huge congratulations to Hugh
Williams who was the 11 year boy champion!
Great effort, Hugh! Coming up soon we have
tennis, cricket and AFL.
As part of the flood initiative I mentioned
earlier in the term, we have received $800 to
spend on sporting equipment. We have used
the funds to purchase AFL guernseys for the
school, in our maroon, black
and white colours. They will
have our school logo and school
name on the back. Hopefully
they will arrive soon.
Yesterday, the Ungarie Central School P & C
held their first meeting for 2017. It was great
to see some new faces at the meeting, as well
as our regular attendees. The next meeting will
be Wednesday 22nd March, starting at 2pm.
This is the AGM, where new office bearers will
be elected. Please come along and support our
P & C. It is only one hour each month out of
your time.
Mr Dodhy and Mrs Jackson spent Monday
planning for Year 9/10 STEM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, Maths), along with
Mr Blue from Lake Cargelligo Central School.
There are some exciting projects planned for
this year and we look forward to sharing these
with you over the year.
Earlier this week we had the last part of our
front fence completed. Our next step is to
beautify the brick wall at the front entrance,
with the help of some of our Year 9/10
Design and Technology students.

Library Day will be on Fridays for K/1/2 and 3/4. Yr 5/6 will change books on Mondays. This is a great
opportunity for students to choose books to read in the home reading system.
Paint Shirts
Could you send in a clearly named paint shirt for your child to protect them from destroying their clothes
during their creative moments. Thank you.
Fruit Attack
It is great to see so many students bringing in fruit for fruit attack. Students are able to bring fruit or
vegetables but not tinned fruit.
A healthy lunch keeps active kids alert and focused
and gives them the nutrition they need every day. But
no matter how healthy your child’s lunch box is, it
won’t provide any nutritional value if it doesn’t get
eaten! Search Healthy School Lunch Boxes for some
great sites with good ideas.

this week is a CommBank school
banking pack.
