TRANSCRIPT
Dear Parents
Term 3 been an outstanding term in many aspects.
Being recognised as one of 15 schools in the whole of
NSW in regards to “Local schools, Local decisions”
with our community partnerships has been a highlight.
Partnerships between staff, students, parents, carers
and families, the broader community, business,
schools and other education and training providers
bring mutual benefits and maximise student
engagement and achievement. Partnerships prompt
support for the development and wellbeing of our
young people and their families and provide
opportunities for our young to connect with their
communities, participate and develop a sense of
responsible citizenship.
Our great NAPLAN results, which indicate clear growth
in every one of our students from Year 3 to Year 5, in
all areas especially reading, where we doubled State
average. This data positively supports the design of
our high-quality learning programs and fulfilling our
school direction of being a School of Excellence. We
are living by our school motto which is “We learn as
we grow” and the ethos “Opportunities: no one misses
out”.
Listening to each speech delivered by most of the
Year 6 students, is what I am most proud of this term.
Each Year 6 student is a winner and a leader, as they
were able to reflect on their time as successful
learners, with an abundance of confidence and
creativity, who are all motivated to reach their full
potential and ready to move on to high school. As they:
Are able to think deeply and logically, and obtain
and evaluate evidence in a disciplined way
Are creative, innovative and resourceful, and are
able to solve problems in ways that draw upon a
range of learning areas and disciplines
Are able to plan activities independently,
collaborate, work in teams and communicate ideas
Are able to make sense of their world and think
about how things have become the way they are
Are on a pathway towards continued success in
further education, training or employment, that
acquire the skills to make informed learning and
employment decisions throughout their lives
Congratulations to our new School Captains Finlay
Lamont and Wulaaran Walker and our School Vice
Captains India Stephens and Toby Hill. Only a few
votes separated the entire group.
Congratulations to all staff and the members of our
valuable partnerships as we are all working together
successfully.
Please come along tomorrow to the end of term
assembly at 2.00pm. To celebrate individual student
achievements, values awards, performance by the
school band and Kindergarten.
Have a well deserved restful holiday break and I
continue to look forward to learning, teaching and
leading next term.

Peter Cooper (an ex SHPS student)
has Insulin Dependent Type 1
Diabetes. Last year’s Student
Representative Council (SRC) decided
that all money raised by their
fundraising would be given to Peter
and his family to help purchase a new insulin
pump for Peter. This pump is very expensive
costing over $8,000.00 and Peter needs it
replaced every 4 years. The SRC also wrote
letters to local businesses asking for help.
The Lions Club contacted the school and invited Lilly Pacey (2016 SRC
President) and Elliot Joyce (2016 SRC Vice President) and Peter and his mother
Jenny to their meeting.
Today Peter and his family received a cheque from the Lions Club to purchase
his new insulin pump. Lilly and Elliot also presented Peter with a cheque for
$858.30 which was the amount they raised last year. The Lions Club’s cheque
made up the remaining amount for the new insulin pump.

Weekly round up
All of our students are developing the essential skills in literacy and
numeracy and are creative and productive users of technology, especially
ICT, as a foundation for success in all learning areas, through our coding
program.
Students are enjoying learning about the logic behind computer coding by
using Bee Bots and code.org courses.
Computer Programming in Kindergarten
This week Pak Terry brought in the Bee Bot Robots!! They were so much
fun! We learnt how to program the Bee Bots using an algorithm (steps for the robots to follow). It was really hard at first,
we had to use a lot of problem solving strategies! Eventually we had success and our Bee Bots were following our
programming instructions! Fantastic mathematicians in Kinder! Bu Bettina
