Week 4 Term 3 Thursday 8th August 2019

It’s that time of year again when we ask for your opinion on overall school operations.

Throughout the year, we ask for topical feedback informally, and sometimes formally through

surveys, but this survey comes from the Department of Education. The Parent Opinion Survey is

completed online and forms an important part of future planning and goal setting. Parents are

selected to complete the survey through a random electronic process and if your name comes

up, we will be kindly requesting your opinion. Letters & emails have gone out to selected parents

yesterday. Any questions may be directed to Tara Hulonce.

Surveys need to be completed by Sunday the 18th of August

Notes from Mrs Hulonce…

Book Fair-

Our Book Fair was held last week and was well

attended. Thanks to everyone who came along,

some (super organised) people were even “stocking

up” on Christmas gifts. Bundarra Primary School

benefits from these fairs, as we receive some free

books for holding the Book Fair, which adds to our

educational resources. Hopefully Mrs Pratt and Mrs

Donald have found some fantastic books to add to

our library from the Scholastic selection. Thanks to

Mrs Donald and her team of helpers who made this

event possible.

Crazy Hair Day-

Tomorrow, our hair is going crazy at Bundarra!

Students can wear casual clothes and be as

creative as they like with their hairstyles. It’s your

opportunity to let loose! We are raising money to

help support Erin and her family, while they stay in

Melbourne for treatment. In addition, we will be

entertained by a band of buskers, performing

throughout breaks, with donations received added

to the funds for Erin. We’ve heard the buskers

practising and they’re pretty good, so get ready for

a fun day!

Grade 3/4 Camp-

Plans are well underway for this fantastic camp to

Dunkeld on 21st- 23rd August. We have many excited

Grade 3’s and 4’s who can’t wait for camp! We

sincerely thank our staff, Mrs Cullen, Miss Delaney

and Miss Mason and parents attending this camp for

their above and beyond efforts. We are sorry Mrs

Holden is unable to attend camp- but she’ll be

thinking of you all having fun while she looks after her

grade 2’s back at school! An organisational meeting

will be held shortly with all attending this camp.

Bundarra TRIVIA Night-

School Council are putting on a fun, social night.

Friday 6th September, tickets $10 each or $80 for a

table. We thank COLTS for their support with this over

18’s event.

Looking forward to a fun night, with funds raised

going to the AIR Ambulance on behalf of the Dark

family. The Dark’s (and many others in town) are fully

aware of how this fantastic service benefits our

community.

So, brush up on your trivia and look out for when

ticket sales start soon. It’s going to be an awesome

night. SEE YOU THERE!

PS. Students aren’t missing out on the fun, their TRIVIA

afternoon will be held on the same day.

Have fun!

“Use your words and actions to

help people and not hurt them”

Compassion

Compassion means caring

about other people. When

someone is feeling hurt or

sad your heart wants that

person to feel better and

you try and do something

about it.

Family Values Challenge

Talk to your family about a time

they have been shown

compassion by someone, or a

time they have been

compassionate to someone

else.

The ups and downs of growing up!

Students in Grades 5 and 6 will be

undertaking a unit on Personal

Development over the next few weeks,

beginning on Thursday 22nd August. The

students will be divided into a ‘Boys’

group and a ‘Girls’ group for these

sessions.

Notes have gone home with students this

week, including detailed information

about this unit of work. If you have any

questions or concerns about this unit of

learning, please see your child’s classroom

teacher.

More information to come

ICT Grades 1/2L, 1/2V and 2/3H have

been working on a project in ICT,

which celebrates their own

unique characteristics. They have

used a Powerpoint template to

create an ‘All About Me’ slide

show. The mini biography outlines

their accomplishments, goals,

and interests. This week they will

have an opportunity to present

their slide shows with their

classmates to compare their

similarities and differences. This

has been an excellent way to

enhance self-esteem, practise

perseverance, foster relationships,

and develop fundamental

technology skills.

All 5/6 classes will be watching Shrek as part of their Literacy unit next week. It is rated PG, so if any parents have any questions or concerns please see your child's classroom teacher.

On Wednesday visiting Musica Viva

Educator Sue Lane worked with

3/4D and Mrs Down to team teach

a lesson from the Water Water

Everywhere unit. This unit of work

of Water Water Everywhere music

interesting water sounds in the

music and drawing their

interpretation of the different

sounds.
