From Your Principal Safety of Children

I am sure that all parents and caregivers will agree with us that the safety of children at

school is our utmost priority. We have recently been concerned about cars approaching the

front office area and younger children being nearby. There have been some instances

where drivers have not seen the children and we are very anxious that children are safe in

that area. We are therefore now asking parents not to drive into the front office area. We

have some orange cones placed across the road early in the morning and at the end of the

school day to prevent vehicle traffic from moving near the front office.

STAFF CAR PARK—this is clearly marked and is for staff cars only. We have 41 staff and only

28 car parks! Parents are asked to park outside the school grounds for safety reasons as

well. We ask families to remind children NOT to walk in the staff car park. It is out of

bounds. If for any special reason, eg. disability, a parent needs to drive in to the school

grounds, a permit will need to be provided. This requires a request at the front office.

PLEASE help us to ensure that every child is safe.

Play is the Way—Golden Rule

The Golden Rule that we want children to appreciate and understand is:

“If someone is unlike you, seek to understand them.

TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO TREAT YOU”.

We are gradually exploring the ideas within “Play is the Way” at school and there are some

great principles to live by that we will encourage the children to value. We hope families

can support us with these.

Governing Council — next Monday

The new Governing Council meets for the first time on

Monday, 23rd March. We will be electing our

new office bearers during the evening.

We will also share our progress

with our Digital Learning

Craigburn Primary School is a learning community sustained by quality relationships

within a culture of respect, optimism and resilience. We are highly regarded for our

passion for learning and our focus on continual improvement.

Three-Way Parent Teacher discussions

We are really looking forward to sharing with parents and caregivers next week . Please

ensure that you make an alternative time if you are unable to attend next week. The

benefits for our children in this opportunity for sharing are significant. Thank you.

Circus Challenge — fantastic!

Thanks to Karen Pettman for organising the Circus Challenge this week. The performance on

Tuesday was extremely entertaining. It has been a lot of fun for all of the children to learn

about some of the skills that circus performers have. This has been a great “added value”

opportunity in our curriculum.

Kathy Terrell—Principal

Craigburn Café Thank you to everyone who ordered a ‘Harmony Day Donut’. It was a great success!

Volunteers are needed for the Canteen on Sports Day!

Sports Day is fast approaching (Thursday 2nd April) and we need lots of helpers for the cake

stall, sausage sizzle and in the canteen itself. If anyone can spare even 1 hour it would be

greatly appreciated. This is our major fundraiser for the year and we need the school

community to support us so we can all have an enjoyable day. If you think you can help us,

please let Sue and Sue know ASAP.

Donations for the Cake Stall

We would be very grateful for donations of cakes, biscuits, slices and other homemade

goodies to sell at our very popular cake stall. These should be bought to the canteen first

thing on the morning of sports day ( 2 April) labelled with ingredients.

PLEASE NOTE WE ARE A NUT AWARE SCHOOL

Food Options on Sports Day

As usual you will be able to buy scrumptious sausages (Gluten Free) from our BBQ on the

oval. The cake stall will be under the verandah at the back of the canteen along with drinks,

snacks, lollies and iceblocks. The canteen itself will be opened at recess and lunchtime only.

We have a ‘new’ Cappuccino Coffee Van, which will be on the oval. Please try to have

SMALL notes, as we do not carry large amounts of change, especially early on!

NOTE - THERE WILL BE NO LUNCH ORDERS ON THAT DAY.

We hope you all enjoy Sports Day and thankyou once again for all your support.

Sue and Sue—Café Coordinators

Sports Day

Sports day is nearly upon us with the students ready for an exciting day on Thurs 2nd April.

Students, families and friends are encouraged to come along dressed in their house colours

ready to support their sports day house team. A reminder that students must wear their

school hats during the day but if students wish to spray their hair with colour, they can do

so at home.

Students will meet in their classrooms as normal and then assemble in their house teams on

the bottom court. Come along and watch the students march down to the oval, warm up

with a health hustle and start the day off with their team chants. Students will then move

off in class groups for tabloid events for the morning. After lunch students will cheer on

their teams as we have the championship sprints and relays to finish off our day. Dismissal is

at normal time unless you speak directly to your child's class teacher. A program will be sent

home with students on the Monday before Sports Day.

in Children

Wednesday 25 March 7.30pm

Presenter – Donna Broadhurst

It’s not easy living with our own

emotions, let alone our child’s ups

and downs. Yet parents can help

their children to safely express their

feelings and manage strong emo-

tions. It is a gift that will serve them

well for a lifetime. Donna gives

some very practical ideas and strate-

gies for you to take home.
