Delivering Excellence, Innovation and Opportunities for Success

Dear Parents and Carers,

This week we celebrate the near completion of the

new school plan. All staff have worked on the

document and all families and members of the

community have been given the opportunity to

contribute through the completion of surveys and by

data collected by the school.

Last night, the document was presented to the P&C

for their input and I look forward to feedback from the

committee. I also invite any interested parents who

would like to look at the plan and make a contribution,

to contact the school to make an appointment with me

and we can look at it and discuss the plan together.

Our three Strategic Directions in the new school plan

are Learning for All, Wellbeing for All and

Community Partnerships. The plan is inclusive of all

members of our school and learning community –

students, staff, parents/carers and the broader

community. The plan is exciting, aspirational and very

achievable over the next three years.

Many of our students have begun to access a newly

setup Breakfast Club at school. It is wonderful to see

them sit together and develop appropriate social skills

while sharing a meal together. It may be a second

breakfast for many students, but if it helps them be

ready to learn, then we are happy for them to join in.

Warm regards,

Jacquie Lockyer – Principal

P3

Our students made some wonderful achievements in

the pool during School Swim Scheme this term. The

weekly Special Olympics Program has also been

keeping us active, with students practising their

throwing, kicking and batting skills.

P3 students have been enjoying music sessions and

have been learning a selection of songs and dances.

The chicken dance is popular and one of our students

has just about learnt all the steps!

We also got busy with collage and glitter to produce

our beautiful Harmony Day balloons and we have

been doing hands-on learning about temperature by

feeling a warm heat pack in contrast with an ice pack.

There have been some lovely friendships developing

as the class gets to know each other and students

have been helping to hand out lunchboxes to their

classmates and enjoying games and a laugh together.

Sensory play

S3

This term, S3 have been reading and studying the

Rabbit Proof Fence, Aboriginal music and have been

exploring the works of Guy Grey-Smith, an Australian

artist. Guy Grey-Smith was an abstract artist who

primarily painted landscapes. Our students have

created their own abstract landscape artwork to

reflect the Western Australian desert in which the

story, Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence, is centred

around.
