WELCOME TO THE 2015 SCHOOL YEAR
Welcome everyone to the 2015 school year at GK! Hard to believe, but another school year is underway. It’s always
great to know that our students, staff and families have returned safely from the holiday period. A very special wel-
come to the many new students, families and staff who join GK for the first time.
We had an extremely smooth and orderly start to the school year last Friday with all of our students in grades 1-6
returning with smiles on their faces and plenty of enthusiasm for the year ahead. Everyone has settled into their
new class routines quickly and the scene is all set for a terrific year ahead.
On Monday, this week, a very excited group of Prep students commenced school for the first time and what an
exciting day they had too! I’m sure some of our Preppies (and parents) thought the day would never eventuate,
such was their level of excitement and enthusiasm! Special thanks to our Parents and Friends Welcome Committee
for providing a welcoming “Cheers & Tears” morning tea which I know was appreciated by those able to attend.
A big thank you also to parents for doing a great job of making sure that your children have returned with their book
bags, water bottles, hats, correct uniform and other items necessary for school. Well done on your organisation!
I also pass on my appreciation and thanks to a fantastic staff team effort that has enabled such a smooth start to
the year. Since the last school day in 2014, many staff have continued to be in and out of the school ahead of their
official return date which was Jan 28th. Staff planning and organisation is to be commended, the results of which
have been seen since day one last week. Thank you!
PARENT COMMUNICATIONS
In the early part of a new school year, there is a lot of information that we need to get out to parents. The infor-
mation is intended to inform you, not overwhelm you! For some of our families, information will provide some wel-
come reminders, for others the information may be entirely new. Some information will be for reading only, whilst in
some cases, parents will need to respond by signing and returning a notice to school.
The online weekly Linkletter and our website will always be two primary means of getting information out to our
families. So too our new electronic sign at the front of the school. For the parents who have subscribed for email
notification of Linkletter uploading to the website, then we occasionally send out emails regarding event reminders.
Paper notices and information will also be distributed from time to time too. We’re also investigating apps that could
be used to push information electronically to parents also, preferably an app that is compatible with QKR that we
already use.
Currently we’re getting together paper information packs which will be distributed to all families at the end of next
week. Rather than send out a raft of information day by day, we’ll be distributing a number of items including a
grade information booklet along with some other parent information bulletins in one pack so look out for this please
and do take some time to read everything.
STAFFING UPDATE
We welcome several new staff members Shirley Borg (Student Wellbeing and Engagement), Amy Proberts (4),
Daniel Boulton and Aimee Deacon (5) and Bianca Perry (2). Louise Ramsdell also joins the admin team so wel-
come Louise! Regrettably, our Music teacher Loretta Simmonds accepted a position at Hazel Glen College on the
last day of term 4 so we thank Loretta for the great job she did in Music at GK and we wish her well in her new posi-
tion . We welcome and thank Kate Whelan who has stepped in to take Music classes at GK for the time being.
EXTREME HOT WEATHER
Please refer to an article on the home page of our school website. It seems there is still plenty of hot weather ahead
of us and of serious concern are those days when the weather is predicted to be extreme and or catastrophic.
Please check the website for further information.

It’s great to see so many students wearing shoes that meet uniform requirements. A reminder to parents
though as we’ve noticed some fluoro laces and non compliant shoe colors.
1. Shoes need to be predominantly BLACK, BLUE, GREY or WHITE with shoelaces in any of these
same 4 colors. Shoes may have other color/s BUT the predominant color/s have to be those listed. It
is not OK to wear fluoro shoes and/or fluoro laces.
2. Shoes must be substantial and provide adequate support to the foot. Light weight canvas type shoes
are not considered suitable.
SUNHATS -
Students must have their GK sunsmart hat ready to begin the school year in
2015. The ‘NO HAT, NO PLAY’ rule operates from September through to April
so please make sure those hats are in school bags and ready to be worn on the
first day of school. Also, hats should be in good condition please without
frayed edges and graffiti free.

POLICY STATEMENT – SCHOOL UNIFORM PHILOSOPHICAL BASIS Wearing School Uniform fosters pride in the school and unifies the students from various social backgrounds into a cohesive school unit. GUIDELINES 1. The wearing of school uniform is compulsory for all students except where exemption is given by School
Council. 2. The acceptable school uniform should consist of a combination of items from the designated uniform list. Any
modifications to school uniform other than adjustment for proper fit are unacceptable 3. Students participating in interschool sport and excursions will wear the appropriate uniform. 4. All Grade 5 and 6 Sporting Teams will be expected at lunch to change back into their school uniform prior to
the start of session 4. 5. The majority of school uniform items should be available for purchase from the volunteer-operated Uniform
Shop. 6. Second Hand Uniform Shop
a. A second hand uniform shop should operate to enable parents to sell or buy good quality used items of school uniform.
b. The second hand uniform shop should be operated by the PFA and the commission earned on the sale of garments should contribute to the fundraising of the PFA.
7. Arrangements can be made to supply uniforms via State Schools Relief for families experiencing economic hardship.
8. A special jacket for the Grade 6 students will be available for purchase each year. 9. Guidelines relating to out of uniform days will be published in the Linkletter prior to the event. 10. Hats
a. Wearing a hat (as prescribed in the uniform list) for all outdoor activities is compulsory from September to April each year unless the activity is conducted in a shaded area.
b. Hats are not to be worn inside. 11. Hair
a. Hair should be neat and well groomed at all times. b. Hair which is shoulder length or longer should be tied back at all times in line with our Head Lice

shoe colours. 17. Teachers will hand out a Student Uniform Infringement Notice when incorrect school uniform is worn. If the
issue is ongoing then teachers need to speak to the Principal/Assistant Principal for follow up. 18. Parents are recommended to purchase school back packs that are endorsed by the Australian Physiotherapy
Association in order to minimise the risk of back injury to students. School back packs with our school logo which meet these guidelines are available from the uniform shop.
19. The School Uniform list will be published in the newsletter at the start of each year and be available in both the Parent Section of the school website and from the office.

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY
SCHOOL CROSSINGS Please use the crossings as directed by the crossing supervisors. Set the right example and don’t be tempted to walk
with your child/ren directly across the road instead of walking a bit further and crossing safely. This also includes not
taking short cuts across the roundabout or across the school carpark entrance and exit driveways.
We are very appreciative of the great work done by our Calendonia Drive School Crossing Supervisors Michelle and
Tracey. Making sure that pedestrians cross the road safely is not an easy task. Road safety is the responsibility of all
users—drivers, passengers and pedestrians and the crossing supervisors are there to provide assistance to those needing
to cross a busy road at a busy time of day. Always show courtesy and respect please and importantly, just do the right
thing.
STREET PARKING Please take notice of the parking restrictions in Calendonia Drive and nearby streets. You will be booked if a Bylaws
Officer notices you doing the wrong thing.
PLEASE READ THE PARKING RESTRICTION SIGNS CAREFULLY to avoid being booked.
SCHOOL/STAFF CARPARK The carpark is only able to be used for a 2 minute pick-up or drop off (ALONG THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINES
ONLY). Parents/grandparents are advised that the carpark is not to be used for parking and walking students to/from
classrooms. Where it is observed that parents are parking their cars in the carpark, there will be follow up. We are a
large school and need all of the parking spaces for teachers, non teaching staff, and others who visit the school on
school business (tradesmen, psychologists, speech pathologists, pre-service teachers etc.) We have a number of part
time staff who have different start and finish times so spaces need to be available for the parking needs of all staff and
school business visitors.
Further information regarding how the pick-up and drop off zone works can be found on our website (About Us /
Facilities & Grounds / Pick-up and Drop-off Zone). When drivers follow the rules, the pick-up and drop-off area gen-
erally runs as safely and smoothly as possible during the busy peak 15 minutes period prior to and after school.
St HELENA COLLEGE CARPARK Please note that the College carpark is only for the use of college staff and students. A number of their students are
also drivers so the college needs all parking spaces to be available for their use.
Hoping for everyone’s cooperation please …. Jill Ramsay
School Banking is coming soon!
Glen Katherine Primary School will be participating in the Commonwealth Bank School Banking program. The School Banking program is designed to teach children a life skill of saving. School Banking also includes a fantastic Rewards Program to encourage good individual saving habits. Look out for further information coming home in Term 1.

News from the School Community Garden
First off – a big THANK YOU and “brrrkkk brrrkkk” to all the families who took care of the chickens over the summer
holidays! Not only did they get to have a run around and some company, but our community school garden got wa-
tered and we haven’t lost any trees which is wonderful. It also added some security to the lower end of the school, and
because of this Heather was able to let us know that there had been a break-in and some vandalism in the propaga-
tion shed……yes all the seeds we had collected and propagated had been overturned and thrown on the ground! How-
ever, perseverance prevailed and with some dedicated staff, we were able to save a lot and have now got new growth.
So to Heather and Rachel, Angela and Sebastian, the Weightman, O’Loughlin and Allen familes THANKS AGAIN. To
Jill Ramsay, Sally Armstrong, Sandra Embling, David Blackburn, Heather and Rachel and my own family – thanks
for helping out with our little working bee down in the propagation shed! To Scott Matthews, thanks so much for the
brilliant installation of the solar panel on the chook shed roof – which now means that the chook hatch is powered by
the sun rather than having to constantly replace batteries.
Flappy-bird, Chickzilla, Nugget and Brave are very happy to have students back
at school and have some company. MONDAY lunchtimes we will continue to have
our gardening club when activities will be taking place down in the Community
School Garden. All students are welcome! We will continue to have a chook com-
mittee doing crowd control on other days.
Some new green school yard bins will be put out in the schoolyard in coming weeks. These will be for FOOD SCRAPS
ONLY and taken back down to our garden area each afternoon and emptied. If you think you would have 20 minutes
at the end of the day to help with the composting please let me know. I will be looking for adult assistance on:
Monday afternoons
Tuesday afternoons
Wednesday afternoons
Thursday afternoons
Friday afternoons
It would just be a matter of getting out any chook scraps such as bread, greens etc and putting the rest of the scraps
into the compost bins. Toddlers are more than welcome to come down and “assist”.
And remember, all visitors are welcome to come down and enjoy our Community School Garden at anytime – especial-
ly if you have toddlers who want to see the chooks at the end of the day! Spotted marsh frogs have continued to breed
in our gully pond throughout summer and we have a small family of Tawny Frogmouths who have made the area
their home! They are very hard to spot – so keep our eyes open and looking UP!
Finally – if you would be interested in joining our list of families on the chook duty roster please let me know. It’s real-
ly easy!!
Cheers, Annemarie Webb – Sustainability Coordinator and Science Coordinator
