Term 4 Week 1

Principal’s

Message

Welcome back to Term 4. This term

provides the students with many sporting,

cultural and academic opportunities. We

can’t wait to get started!

What a wonderful spectacle Big Gig was for

Trundle Central School. The performance

our students and the students of Tullamore

and Yeoval presented for our community

was spectacular. The hard work and dedication

of our students and staff was at the forefront

and the audience was not disappointed. Some

of our students were extremely sick and for

each performance there were students unable

to perform. The rest of the cast were willing to

take on extra roles and responsibilities to

ensure our performance was the best it could

be. This shows what amazing students we have

at Trundle Central School.

The Year 12 farewell assembly was a fantastic

combined effort from Ms Rowlands, Miss Ranger

and the Year 11 and 12 students. It is delightful

to have watched these students grow into

mature young adults. The staff and students wish

them all the very best for their upcoming exams.

We look forward to hearing about all their

future career choices and life

successes.

Have a fantastic week!

Last term our senior students enjoyed their last

day at school. The day started with bubble goo in

the bubblers, streamers and glad wrap over the

play equipment, a crime scene on the stage and

goggle eyes in the K12 room. At the morning as-

sembly the seniors held an auction where they sold

back items ‘found’ on teachers desks, earning

$280. After the cleanup the seniors started work on the car wash

where they washed many cars and earnt $310 for the school. This

money will be used to purchase a gift for the school. Thanks to all the

teachers and community members who tolerated our excitable behav-

ior and supported us in raising money for the school.

Year 11/12

Year 11 students hosted and ran the

year 12 final assembly last term. They

wrote speeches, prepared the

assembly area, and conquered nerves

to speak in front the entire school

and community guests. Their efforts

made the day run smoothly and was

truly entertaining.

Our year 11 students are embarking

on their HSC studies this term and

with support from family, friends,

teachers and the Trundle community

will triumph in the upcoming year.

Sent to live with a foster family in the

country until she is big enough to go

to school, Hetty plays vivid imaginary

games with her foster brothers. To-

gether they sneak off to visit the trav-

elling circus, and Hetty is mesmerised

by the show - especially the stunning

Madame Adeline and her performing

h o r s e s .

But Hetty's happiness is threat-

ened when she must return to the

Foundling Hospital to begin her edu-

cation. The cruel matrons' strict re-

gime is a terrible struggle for Hetty,

and she desperately misses her be-

loved foster brother, Jem. But now

she has the chance to find her real

mother. Could she really be Madame

Adeline? Or will the truth be even

more surprising?

Suzy the cat is always getting into trou-

ble much to the annoyance of her fami-

ly. She can never do anything right! So

Suzy decides to teach her family a les-

son and make them realise just how

much they love her.

It's time for bed, and a little boy

chooses his favourite book for his

mother to read to him. The bear

in the book is preparing for his own

deep slumber, hibernating through

the winter while humans and other

animals explore the snowy landscape

around him. Just when the bear

wakes up to greet the spring, the boy

drifts off to sleep.
