 Message from the Principal…
 Dear Parents & Carers,
 Meet the Teacher sessions will be held this week. I hope as many parents and carers as
 possible will be able to attend these important and informative sessions. This year we will be
 asking you for your ideas on what you would like to learn more about, so that you can support
 your child’s learning at home. You may want to learn more about how we teach reading, writing
 or mathematics. Or you may want to learn more about Visible Learning – learning intentions,
 success criteria and learner dispositions. Come along with your ideas and we will then plan our
 parent workshops for the year. The workshops held in 2019 were very well received and we
 hope to be able to provide you with interesting and practical sessions again this year.
 I would like to congratulate our zone swimming team. Not only did you perform to the best of
 your ability in the pool, you also demonstrated amazing sportsmanship by cheering and
 encouraging your team mates throughout the day. Several parents commented on the
 tremendous sportsmanship of our
 students. This year we have our largest
 ever representation at the regional
 swimming carnival on Tuesday 3 March.
 A full report and photos will feature in
 next week’s newsletter. Best of luck to
 all our competitors.
 The    regional   swimming    carnival
 unfortunately clashes with our school
 photo day. We were lucky enough to
 secure a new date for our photos.
 Please see below for details.
 Have a great week

 School Photos – Change of date
 Due to several new dates on our school
 calendar we were fortunate enough to
 change our photo day to ensure majority of
 staff and students will be present. School
 Photos will be held on Thursday 19th March.
 Envelopes were sent home last week with
 every student.        Sibling envelopes are
 available at the office. Parents please return
 the envelope/s to school by Friday 13th
 March. Payment can be made on line or cash
 in the envelope.

Found – Glasses
A pair of students reading glasses were handed in last year and we have had no luck in finding their owner.
They are in an Eyecare Plus Case and look to be boys glasses and have ‘star wars’ on the arms.
