Principal's Message

Return to school begins next week Today we have emailed out some detailed information as to how we as a school and a community will be handling and adjusting to, returning to school and the associated restrictions. Bayswater South Primary School is committed to providing a safe learning and working environment for our students and staff. We ask for the whole school community to read all the information emailed out today carefully and follow this guide to enable us to provide the safest possible environment during this time. We all have a role to play in stopping the spread of COVID-19 in Victoria. Curriculum day Monday 25

th - Staff will be planning for the weeks ahead and the staged return

of all students back to school. They will also be setting up classrooms and necessary equipment for the junior students’ arrival back on Tuesday. On behalf of the staff I would like to say thank you to the parents for the commitment to and communication with the Home Learning undertaken in the BSPS community. The effort and enthusiasm that has been put into some of the work I have seen is amazing. From rap music recordings to detailed artworks, to waving to students doing virtual cross country runs to the inquiry into literacy and numeracy topics – well done to students and parents alike! I look forward to seeing all the wonderful junior students’ faces upon their return next week. I ask for parents’ understanding of and commitment to the new restrictions for adults on school grounds. Have a great long weekend (Curriculum day Monday) and stay safe. Perhaps the most important action school communities can take to reduce the risk of transmission of coronavirus (COVID-19), is to ensure that any unwell staff, children and young people remain at home. Bayswater South Primary School is following the advice from the Department of Education and Training including, Health and safety advice for return to onsite learning in the context of COVID-19 which can be found on the Department’s Coronavirus (COVID-19) website.

Nana’s Necklace

Nana’s necklace is very special to her. It is her mum’s

necklace. Her

mum got it for her 21st birthday.

It is silver with red leaves. The silver twists to make vines. It is

like

a silver and red forest. It is very pretty.

We wonder if Nana’s mum ever wore the necklace.

We wonder who gave the necklace

to her.

The connection is that Nana got it

from her mum.

Grannie`s Bracelet Story. From my Grannie Childhood

I spoke to my Grannie about her special bracelet which is about 60

years old.

It has the 10 Commandments written on the hearts and the bracelet is

silver.

See: Grannie sees that it is old and she also sees the 10

Commandments written on it. And I see that it has love hearts and that

it is silver and it has a lovely chain.

Wonder: I wondered how old she was when she got the bracelet. And

she responded that she was 10-years-old when she got the bracelet. I

also wondered who give her the bracelet. And she said that her mother

and fathers friend give the bracelet to her as a present as a

confirmation gift. She said that she wears it even now when she goes

to dancing. And she remembered that she wore a white dress with the

bracelet to her confirmation. I wondered if she knew who she did her

confirmation with. She said she couldn`t remember but she was the

only Catholic person in her neighbourhood. She went to Sunday school

for two years. She also said that her grandparents to her confirmation

with her.

Connect: My connect is that I go to

Sunday school too. She remembers that

she got it for her confirmation and it

reminded her of her parents and her

childhood.

My family relics My mom and dad are coming from Republic of Belarus, which

in the past was a part of USSR. So, all my grandparents live in

Belarus and I have to talk to them via Skype.

When I asked my

mother’s parents about important old things in their life they

told me about old scarf and a piece of paper.

The scarf was brought by my grand-grand-father from Berlin,

and the piece of paper was a notice my grand-

grand-grandmother

received after World War 2 stating that my grand-

grand-grand-father was missing after a battle in

November

1943. My grandparents keep a lot of memories

linked to WW2,

because every third citizen of Belarus died in that

war and no

one was left not-influenced by that horrible war.

Even during

pandemic Belarus is the only country which holds

a parade on

9th of May devoted to the Victory Day in 1945.

I am very curious about history of my family and

will keep on finding further details.

My Grandma’s special gift Dedicated to my great-grandfather, dead, but not forgotten.

Today, I talked to my Grandma who was born in Colombia. Her name is

Martha. She has a special gift that means a lot to her and I’m going to

share it with you.

This is my grandma’s camera that her dad gave to her.

SEE

I notice that it’s an antique camera from olden times. [It’s made in

Germany!] The brand is AGFA. It comes in a leather-case and is in a

good condition.

WONDER

We wonder how many photos/memories, there could be in the camera.

I wonder where my great-grandad went with the camera. Possibly on

the beach, a sunset, or even a birthday!

CONNECT

My grandma’s father gave this camera to her, it was a special gift for

my grandma. He asked her to take care of the camera and pass it onto

the family. He bought this

camera in 1958 so it’s 62

years old! All family photos

were taken in that camera,

even my great- grandad

took photos of my mum.

Thought of the week came from

Olivia while discussing with her

mum, Hundertwasser’s belief that

there are no straight lines drawn

with a ruler in nature. Olivia said,

“Things can be great, without

being perfect”
