Principal’s Message

Dear Parent/Caregivers, Term 3 has started smoothly with classes quickly settling into routines and structures, whilst being immersed in quality learning experiences. NED Show The popular NED show will be returning to South next Tuesday 6th August. The show is a character based program that centres around these important messages that have lifelong relevance:

Never give up Encourage others

Do your best

The performance will also incorporate the themes of growth mindset, responsibility and respect. The performance is free, with associated merchandise on sale in the week following the show. Celebrating 100 Days of Learning Last Friday, Kinder Astronauts participated in a variety of fun activities which celebrate 100 days of learning. Thank you Mr Morris and Kara, for all their work in creating such a fun day to help mark and celebrate this special milestone.

School Uniform Thank you to all the families and students who have supported our request for students to be wearing correct uniform, including green shorts and tracksuit pants. The students look amazing! In addition to the current school uniform, the school P&C have been working hard to source a school jacket for those colder months. Thank you to Trudy McElroy for her work in sourcing the jackets. The jackets can be ordered from the school, using the order form attached to this week’s newsletter. The jacket is on display in the school foyer.

Kindergarten Excursion This Friday 2nd August, Kinder Astronauts are off on their very first excursion. The students will head out to the Long Table Farm/Café and enjoy a farm tour, feed some baby goats and make some pasta and pizzas. We hope they have a very special adventure and look forward to hearing all the stories upon their return. Thank you to Mr Morris, for organising this learning opportunity. Premier’s Spelling Bee The Premier’ s Spelling Bee will take place tomorrow in the school hall. Parents and community members are invited to come and watch our super spellers in action! All students are currently working hard to practise their skills in preparation for the our annual Spelling bee.

PSSA Girls Soccer Knockout Last Thursday, the school girls soccer team travelled to Leeton, and played Parkview Public School. The team won 3 goals to 1. The scores were level at 1 goal each, at half time. South's first goal, was the result of a fine individual effort by Jerrah Caruso. The team combined well in the second half, and some constructive passing resulted in a second goal to Jerrah Caruso. Caitlyn Saunders sealed the result beyond doubt, with a goal in the final minutes. Parkview had a number of scoring opportunities throughout the match, but were thwarted by sound defence and Winnie Thompson’s excellent goal keeping. Again, the team should be proud of their performance. They supported and encouraged each other and were able to take advantage of opportunities as they presented throughout the game. Each player made a valuable contribution towards the final result. A big thanks to the family members who helped out on the day, with transport and encouraging sideline support during the match. The next match is an away game against Hanwood Public School, in Griffith. Details have yet to be confirmed, but possible dates for this match are Monday, 19th August or Tuesday, 20th August. District Athletics carnival Weather permitting the Deniliquin & District PSSA Athletics Carnival will be held on Monday 12th August at Hardinge St Oval. All South students, who have qualified for the big carnival, have received their information/permission note this week. Notes are due back Monday 5th August. Raffle books are due back by Friday 9th August.

South School Jacket Orders Our P&C are excited to announce we now have school jackets available to purchase to help combat the winter chill. They are a green and gold showerproof nylon taslon outer shell and fully lined on the inside with warm micro fleece and a detachable hood. The jackets are printed with our school logo.

The price will be $65 each and can be only purchased through our P&C.

We intend to submit the first order early next week so we can get them back to you ASAP.

Deniliquin South Public school was lucky enough to receive a grant from Junior Landcare and Woolsworths. The money received has gone towards the construction of new compost bays and equipment to use in our veggie garden. Special thank you to Cam Clarke for all his time and effort in building our bays.
