Principal’s News Tuesday 3 September 2019

What a great morning we had last Friday, celebrating our fathers with the special breakfast. Thank you to

the P&C for again staging this great event, Tim McDonald for organising the food and BBQs and the

fathers and staff and Moruya HS students that helped prepare and serve the food. It was wonderful

having so many fathers visiting our school and I know there were a lot of cards collected off the boards

that the children had put some great thought into.

We are continuing our focus and commitment to student safety. I have put several messages in the

Scoop over the year about the safe ways students enter and exit the school, bikes and scooters and

access to the staff car park. Unfortunately, some people have missed the messages and we still have

bikes and cars entering our staff car park of a morning and afternoon. To ensure student and staff

safety, we will be closing the carpark gates of an afternoon.

If you are riding with your children, please use the correct gates (near the office when bringing them

into school from Cambridge Crescent or the back gate when coming from Captain Oldrey Oval) and

remember to dismount your bike and push it once entering the school grounds. Thank you for your

cooperation and helping to teach your children safe habits.

We have reached the exciting stages in several of our PSSA sporting knockout events. Tomorrow our

AFL team will travel to Goulburn to play Camden South PS. If they win that game they will face South

Wagga PS with the winner to play the final in Sydney the following week.

On Thursday both our girls and boys basketball teams will play the south coast PSSA knockout finals in

Batemans Bay. The Girls team are playing Goulburn West PS and the boys will face Mount St Thomas

PS. If you would like to go along and support our teams, games start at 11am.

We wish both our AFL and basketball teams good luck and know they will play and represent

themselves and the school with pride.

Today our classes revisited some of the mindfulness lessons they participated in term 1. Today’s lessons

are a reminder of some of the exercises and techniques they might want to use in the lead up to our

Broulee on the Box performance, especially if they are feeling a little nervous about performing on

stage.

Lastly, our Year 6 students are heading to Sydney next week for their major excursion. They have a big

week ahead of them and I know their teachers are looking forward to all the great activities, learning

and experiences the children have ahead of them. We look forward to hearing all about it on their

return. During next week the remaining Year 6 students and Year 5 students from 5/6W and 5/6H will

have regular classes.

Thought for the week

This one is for our sports stars this week:
