Council

Newsletter Date: Thursday Term 1 WK 3

What's On

LEADERSHIP REPORT GOVERNING COUNCIL The Governing Council AGM is next Tuesday at 7pm in the new STEM Studio. It would be wonderful to see as many families represented as possible. Governing Council is a real opportunity for families to become involved in shaping the culture of our school. We also have many sub-committees you may be interested in, you are welcome to join these without being on our Governing Council and they are another way to be involved and contribute to making our school even more fabulous! INDONESIAN Open Access Indonesian lessons have begun for the R-6 students. The R-2 students will have Penny Ellin as their teacher. Penny is teaching at Lake Wangary School as well as doing Open Access lessons. Penny came to Tumby Bay last week and met her students personally. The Year 3-6 classes have Blake White from Adelaide. She was the teacher last year for most of these students which provides continuity. Blake will visit our school on Thursday next week to meet the students and have a face-to-face lesson with them. SWIMMING CARNIVAL Our swimming Carnival will be held on Friday next week at the Cummins pool. This involves students from year 4-12. The R-3 students will have school as usual that day. Mr Masson and the house captains are busy organising the events and student participation. Students are reminded to be sun-smart. When they are not racing, they will need to wear a rashie or t-shirt, wear a hat and regularly apply sunscreen. Our House Captains will lead their houses with pride and we are looking forward to a great day. SPORTS DAY – ADVANCE NOTICE The date of Sports Day this year will be on Thursday 14

th March. Please note the change of

date from Wednesday 13th March.

PRIMARY SPECIAL PERSONS AFTERNOON – ADVANCE NOTICE On Friday afternoon 22nd March, in the afternoon families/special friends of the Primary students will be invited to come into the classrooms to work with students on a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) project. The times at this stage will be 11.50 – 12.40 for Year 6; 1.20-2.10 for Year 3/4/5; 2.10 – 3.00pm for Year R/1/2. YEAR 12 EVENING On Monday evening, the Year 12 staff, led by Senior School Leader Gavin Hammond, hosted an evening for Year 12 students and their families. This event was held for the first time in 2019 and we hope it will become a feature of our calendar in the future. The night was a great opportunity for families to gain an insight on how to assist their child through Year 12, meet all of the other parents and have the chance to hear from each Year 12 teacher Special thanks to Teena Norton-Fahey and her assistants who provided a delicious tea and the RSL for hosting our event. SEESAW APP Last year, Louise O’Leary trialled the Seesaw app with the parents/caregivers of the Year 1/2 class. Due to the extremely positive feedback from families, we are now extending this to all Primary classes. The Seesaw app allows for quick and easy communication between families and teachers, including photos and messages which are only sent to the appropriate families, maintaining confidentiality. Class teachers will be sending communication regarding this app in the near future. DUX ASSEMBLY Next week on Wednesday, the R-12 Dux assembly will be held at 11am on the 20th February in the hall. We will have great pleasure in presenting this award to Katia Butler who is our proud Dux of 2018. Also at this assembly we will hold a very special ceremony where the Reception students are welcomed to our school by our Year 12 students, this is always a special occasion so BYO tissues! All families, friends and members of the community are welcome to attend.
