Principal’s Report Building Work
Callaghan College Jesmond Senior Campus is in the
beginning stages of their exciting building project. The
project will include a new hall and nine classrooms to
replace the aging Bini and demountables. It will be purpose
built for Creative and Performing Arts and will include a
theatre and open spaces. The main impact on our school
will involve new vehicle and pedestrian access from Janet
Street.
As the building program progresses there will be a series of
internal and external information booths to provide
updates on the progress of the development. The next of
these booths will be on the 27th March from 1.00pm to
3.00pm at the entrance to the high school and then again
on the 29th March from 6.00pm to 8.00pm at Jesmond
Stockland Mall.
If you would like to know more please visit the information
booths. I will also keep our school community up-to-date as
I become aware of any new information.
Unsung Hero
Today’s unsung hero is Mr Nathan Wilkinson, our Learning
and Support Teacher. Mr Wilko started at Heaton Public School in 2016 and has worked closely with children to develop
their literacy and numeracy skills. He also builds relationships with students to help them develop appropriate social
skills. He is sharing Tirriki 3 with Ms Field this year and is doing fantastic work in the classroom.
Mr Wilko loves sport and has taken responsibility for a number of sporting teams including soccer, softball and touch
football. He even organised for the children at our school to be part of a new world record earlier this term when every
child (and all the teachers) ate vegetables as part of the Vegi Crunch World Record attempt.
Mr Wilko brings a positive attitude to school every day and the children enjoy working with him in the classroom or in
The Cave to improve their skills. Well done Mr Wilkinson.
