Principal’s Notes:

Dear parents and friends,

Well, the lockdown for the State of Victoria is continuing! Hopefully this
means we are back to face-to-face teaching next Wednesday 28th July.

Yesterday, the teachers all had class meetings on WebEx, it was wonderful
to see and talk to the students again. We have scheduled another WebEx
meeting for next Monday with our class groups at the same times. I know
the children are really missing being with their friends and classmates. It is
an opportunity to catch up, share news and connect with each other. The
children are doing a wonderful job in their remote learning tasks. I know it
is not easy juggling your own work and assisting your children in their
school work. So, families please take a moment each day to say well done
and know that you are supporting your children incredibly well.

We held our School Council meeting online Wednesday night with all our
councillors in attendance. We have had to postpone a site visit with the
architect twice now due to restrictions, so we are still waiting for our final
plans for the stadium upgrade. Today, we had new laser light put on the
covered in area next to Miss Purnell's room. It has made a huge difference
to the area with more natural light coming though. It is also UV protectant
which makes the area SunSmart for play times. Thank you to Karl Price for
organizing this.

After discussions with the School Council and Mr Hill, we have decided to
postpone his afternoon tea to say thankyou due to restrictions. We will
now make a formal farewell to Mr Hill at the end of year presentation night.
Mr and Mrs Hill are now safely back in Victoria after enjoying their travels
but were much happier when enjoying the warmer Queensland weather.

We are still in the process of advertising for a classroom teacher to teach
in the Year 5 & 6 room. Mrs Bell has been doing an outstanding job with
the Year 5 & 6’s but she would like to enjoy her semi-retirement more, so
she will be returning to her tutoring and art roles. Mrs Bell will continue
teaching the year 5 & 6s till this role is finalised.
