PRINCIPAL’S REPORT
Photographic Workshop
This week a group of stage 3 students participated in a photographic
workshop as part of our Five Lands Walk involvement.
The students worked with photographer Sally Mayman to learn about
framing, depth of field and other techniques to improve their photography.
Some of their photographs will be displayed as part of the Five Lands Walk
photographic exhibition in June.
Thanks to Miss Barnett for her organisation of the workshop.

that you represented our school with pride.

Thank you to Mr Krisher, Mrs Haines, Mr Ridley and Mr Randall for their work in running the carnival
and managing our team.
Not Before 8.30am
Students must not be at school before 8.30am. They are not supervised and may be unsafe.
Supervision is provided from 8.30am in the top amphitheatre and the bottom COLA area.
If a child inadvertently arrives prior to 8.30am they must go and sit outside the front office. They are
not to play or walk around.
Dental Clinic
The free NSW Health dental clinic will commence next week. The clinic will be
here for the next 4 weeks. If you have returned your child’s permission and
information form they will be checked by the team. You will receive a simple
report that will indicate if further treatment is needed.
Clean Up Australia Day
Tomorrow is Clean Up Australia Day for schools.
We have taken a slightly different slant this year
with a focus on a commitment to reduce waste in
the first place.
Students will watch and discuss some media texts
about reducing waste. They will also consider
making a pledge to reduce waste. Some examples
may be:
• I pledge to bring in a low waste lunchbox at
least once per week
• I pledge to collect 3 pieces of rubbish when I visit a beach or park
• I pledge to not use single use straws when I visit a café or restaurant,
• I pledge to recycle my 10c containers and compost my food.

SENIOR CHOIR
This year students in years 3-6 have an exciting
opportunity to be involved in the senior choir.
Now that we are allowed to sing again, with
restrictions lifted, we are thrilled to be able to
run the senior choir again. Rehearsals will be
before school on Tuesday mornings at 8:30am
in the 2SF classroom (near the stairs to the top
oval). We are hoping to be involved in many
performance opportunities including the Central Coast Choral Festival in October.
Places are limited for the festival but we welcome everyone for the school choir. If
your child is interested in joining the choir please send them to 2SF on Tuesday
morning 9th March at 8:30am. Looking forward to seeing (and hearing) the senior choir
singers on Tuesday.

Senior choir teachers

Premiers Reading Challenge The 2021 Premier's Reading Challenge (PRC) opens on the 1st March and runs until the 20th August, 2021. This Challenge is free for students to participate in and promotes a love of reading. Kindergarten and Stage 1 students are reading their 30 Premier’s Reading Challenge books as part of their Library lessons, but you are also encouraged to participate in this great scheme at home. If you would like a copy of the recording sheet, they are available at the school library. Students in Stage 2 and 3 are required to read 20 books (15 from the PRC book list and 5 free choices). Students will be provided with information on how to log their books in Library lessons. The Library staff will happily log any completed record sheets for younger students. We look forward to your support in participating in this fantastic program. Further information is available at https://online.det.nsw.edu.au/prc/home.html Please contact Ms Foster or Mr Bridge at the Library if you have any queries about your PRC account or the Premier's Reading Challenge.
