CERTIFICATES K-6 TRANSITION

Yesterday we started our 2016/2017 transition program for all students in Kindergarten to

Year 5. Students were placed into groups based on their academic year for 2017. Each

afternoon this week, students will rotate around teachers with different cohorts of

students.

Please note that the groups are not final classes for 2017, nor are the teachers they may

visit representative of the teacher they may have. We run this program to provide students

with the opportunity to experience being amongst different peers, to visit different rooms

within the school and to enjoy spending time with different teachers.

The overall aim of these afternoons is to demystify the new year and to help our students to

feel comfortable with the changes that will occur. Hopefully by experiencing a range of

teachers and classrooms they will feel more confident and relaxed about the start of a new

and exciting year in 2017. If your child does experience any distress or concerns during this

time, please discuss these with their class teacher.

END OF YEAR REPORTS

End of year reports will be going home by the beginning of next week. We hope you take

the time to share your child’s successes with them and to celebrate their many

achievements.

CAROLS IN THE COLA

By now, you would have received a number of notes about our exciting end of year get

together—Carols in the COLA. This event is alcohol free and an opportunity for our school

community to come together to celebrate the festive season and the year that was. In this

newsletter is a pre-order form for you to complete and pay. Tickets will be available up

until the evening of the 9th by paying online or in cash/cheque through the

school. (Candles and books will be distributed on the night. )

Every class have been preparing a Christmas song to sing for you and we

have special performances by Cathy Wright, Murrumbidgee Magic and

some surprises still to be confirmed. If your child will not be in

attendance, please let their classroom teacher know.

Santa will be here in his big red chair for you to take your Christmas

photos. There is no charge for this, just bring your camera and your

smiles.

The P&C will be catering on the night, so need to worry about dinner. There will be a

number of options to satisfy the whole family.

So bring your chair, beanbag or blanket, your best singing voices and your holiday

cheer to share an evening with friends and family on the 9th December from

6.30pm.

A REMINDER TO ALL YEAR 6 STUDENTS AND PARENTS

At Wagga Wagga Public School we do not write or get signatures on shirts

or any items of clothing. If you want your friends’ signatures and

messages, an autograph book or signature bear is the way to go.

Thank you.

PRINCIPAL’S REPRT CONTINUED……... YEAR 5 & 6 BALLARAT EXCURISON


PRINCIPAL’S REPRT CONTINUED……...

Did you know that Wagga Wagga

Public School is a proud member of

the Wagga Wagga Community of

Public Schools (WWCOPS)?

This network of schools includes

most of the Primary and Secondary

schools in Wagga Wagga and the

smaller schools affiliated with

Wagga.

It was established in 2015 to

provide greater opportunities for

inter-school collegiality, support

and professional growth. Each

term, representatives from schools

meet to discuss initiatives to

promote and strengthen Public

Education across our schools.

To date, we have established many

opportunities for our staff to work

together on Professional Learning

and networking. By sharing

learning, resources and ideas, we

are, in turn, providing improved

opportunities for our most valuable

assets—our students.

WWCOPS has as its banner

statement:

Diverse in Culture—

United in Learning

and has a graphic representation of

the silver banksia as its emblem.

The silver banksia is the floral

emblem of Wagga Wagga and the

flower spikes coming out from the

central spike represent the many

Public Schools in Wagga working

together to achieve the strategic

directions of NSW Public Education.

To the many parents and friends for your many and varied contributions to our wonderful

school. No matter how big or small, whether in the classroom or out, we appreciate all you

do to support us in providing such a range of positive and rewarding learning and extra-

curricular activities for our children.

To our dedicated and enthusiastic staff, congratulations on another terrific year. There are so

many amazing memories and highlights for 2016 and behind everyone of them is a staff

member organising, training, planning, creating etc. You are a terrific team of

professionals who put so much into what you do. Well done.

And finally, to our beautiful, talented and unique students, thank you for giving your energy,

excitement and commitment into everything you do. It is quite remarkable how much

each and every one of you has learnt and grown throughout the year and you should be

very proud of your achievements and successes. You have continued to uphold Wagga

Wagga Public’s excellent reputation within the community and we are very proud of you.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a very happy, safe and relaxing holiday period.

Please stay safe in the sun and on the roads and return to us for another great year in 2017

Kindest regards

Leanne


There are a lot of reminders and thank-you acknowledgements to include this week.

Canteen Lunch Special

2-3N have reached their goal!

All year 2-3N have been collecting money for our

Grateful Jar. After much discussion we decided to

buy a swag for a homeless person from ‘Backpack

Beds for the Homeless’.

Our goal was to collect $100 which would buy one

backpack bed. We counted the money in the jar last

week and we have $104.90.

We will purchase the bed online this week, knowing

somebody will sleep a little more peacefully this

Christmas.

Great job 2/3N!
