Message from the Principal

Dear Parents, Staff and Students,

Reports Parents are reminded that Semester 1 reports will be emailed to parents in the last week of school. Emails will contain a link that will direct parents to their child’s report. Please ensure that you save and/or print reports as the link will remain active for four weeks only. Teachers have spent a great deal of time with these reports to ensure that parents have a solid understanding of their child’s progress. Please ensure that you read the report thoroughly and take the time to discuss it with your child. Some teachers may request a parent meeting. If this is the case, I encourage you to take opportunity.

Local Intake Area Change With the opening of Caversham South Primary School (planning name) at the start of the 2020 school year, local intake areas have changed for our school. New enrolments to our school from 2020 will be affected by this change. Parents are assured that any child who is currently enrolled at East Beechboro Primary School has a secure place at the school regardless of whether or not their address is outside the new local intake area. Parents are under no obligation to change schools unless they wish to do so. Letters will be sent home to all families in regards to this. I will also be holding a parent forum next Thursday, 4th July, at 2pm in our undercover area to discuss the implications of the change and to answer any questions you may have. This forum is open to all our families.

2020 Enrolments New Applications for enrolment into our school for next year close on July 26th. Parents of our current Kindergarten students are required to re-enrol for Pre-Primary next year. If you have not already done so, please complete the relevant forms and return to the office with the required supporting documentation (birth certificate, AIR immunisation document, proof of address and court papers if applicable) by this date. It would be appreciated if applications could be sent in as soon as possible as this will assist us with our planning for next year.

Interschool Winter Carnival Congratulations to all our students who took part in the Winter Interschool Carnival last Friday. Our teams performed extremely well and they showed outstanding sportsmanship and behaviour. A special congratulations to Netball A and B teams who won their competitions. Thank you to all our teachers for training students in their specific sports and to all the parents who attended on the day to support our teams. A special thank you to Mr Maidens for organising the event.

Councillor Elections Student who are interested in leadership roles for next term took part in the Councillor Elections yesterday. Students delivered excellent campaign speeches to our Years 3 to 6 students. Voting slips are being counted and the newly elected councillors will be announced at the first class assembly next term (Wednesday 31st July). I would like to take this opportunity to thank and formally acknowledge the outstanding contributions of our Semester 1 Councillors and Faction Captains. You have been outstanding role models to all our students and have completed your duties exceptionally.

Canteen Week 1 Term 3 Parents are advised the canteen will not be open in the first week of next term. Please ensure that your child is provided with sufficient lunch and recess. The canteen will resume normal operation (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday each week ) from Week 2.

End of Term It has been a very busy term and I would like to thank all our students for their efforts this semester. Term 3 commences for students on Monday 22nd July. I wish all our students, families and staff a well earned, safe and relaxing holiday. Shayne Harris Principal

Students in Rooms 5, 9, 10, 11 and 12 created ideas for Aboriginal paintings. These ideas were transformed into intricate

and very beautiful paintings by Mr Leigh Merrells.

These paintings will be placed throughout the school for our community to enjoy.

Thank you to Mr Merrells for his assistance and hard work. These paintings will make a wonderful addition to our school.

Indonesian Wayang Kulit Incursion

Our Years 3 - 6 students were fortunate to have experienced an Indonesian shadow

puppet performance.

Wayang Kulit is a traditional form of shadow-puppet play using carved figures

students had the opportunity to go behind the screen and work the puppets.
