P&C Meeting
Dear Parents,
I hope all our mums and nans had a relaxing Mother’s Day. What a lovely
morning we had last Thursday for our Mother’s Day breakfast. It was
great to see so many people attending. Thank you very much to the P&C
and Kelly and the girls from George Brand Real Estate for the beautiful
breakfast.
This week Year 3 and Year 5 students will complete the National
Assessment Program- Literacy And Numeracy (NAPLAN). NAPLAN tests
the sort of skills that are essential for every child to progress through
school and life, such as reading, writing, spelling and numeracy. While
NAPLAN is a great way for parents to compare their child’s
performance against national peers and for schools to map student
achievement and measure the success of their teaching programs, there
are other important factors to remember. NAPLAN is a one off test
that provides a snapshot of learning from mainly multiple choice
answers. It is imperative that we do not put undue pressure on our
children to perform in these tests. Teachers see on a daily basis what
their students can and cannot do, and they modify their teaching
accordingly. Due to this they have a much better understanding of your
child than what a one off test can give you. Please reassure your child
that NAPLAN is not something to be worried about. We encourage them
to have a go and try their best. And if you have any concerns about your
child’s learning, please see their teacher.
Star Struck rehearsals begin this week and I would like to acknowledge
all the extra work Miss Gnauck has done to prepare the students for
this event. Without all the additional work of our teachers and
administrative staff, our students would not be lucky enough to have so
many different experiences.

Student Welfare Positive climate and good discipline is the second main area of student welfare at our school. We
aim to provide opportunities for students to demonstrate success in a wide range of activities.
We have strong policies and procedures to protect the rights, safety and health of all our
students and school community members. To do this we have clear school rules and every
classroom follows these rules using the traffic light system. Good behaviour is expected at all
times and consequences for misbehaviour are informed by our level system. We encourage
students to take responsibility for their actions.
Stages 2&3 School Camp Deposits are still being accepted for the Stage 2&3 camp being held in Term 3. If you
wish your child to attend this camp could you please return the completed permission
note with payment of $50 to the office asap.
P&C News P&C would like to thank the fantastic volunteers who helped with the Mother’s Day breakfast
which was generously supplied and prepared by Kelly Jackson and her wonderful staff from
George Brand Real Estate, Wyee. The stall was a huge success and students were very happy with
the gifts they purchased. Due to the amount of gifts which were donated the P&C are thrilled to
have made a great profit.
Zone Cross Country After much confusion and changing of dates due to the horrible weather
we endured, 20 students from Wyee Public School attended the Zone
Cross Country on an altered course at Rathmines on Tuesday 5th
May. Even though there was lots of puddles to contend with, Kurt
came 5th and went on to compete at Regional, Hunter placed 7th,
Riley, Cameron and Kobi also did well in their age group. Best placed
girl was Abbey. Thanks to all parents who assisted and encouraged
our students across the line.
