Student Attendance
I would just like to remind everyone that if you are planning a holiday with your family during the school term, you
will need to fill out the correct paperwork, which is available from the front office. If you are travelling overseas, a
copy of your flight information needs to be included.
Congratulations Ms Sue Holloway
It was a great pleasure to present Ms Holloway with a Certificate of Recognition at our K-6 assembly this week for all
of her wonderful work with sport.
Ms Holloway has been actively involved in school sport throughout her career. She has coached school teams and
zone teams, freely giving up her own time before and after school hours as well as during lunch and recess breaks to
conduct training sessions. She has been heavily involved in swimming, athletic and cross country carnivals at both a
school and zone level. Ms Holloway's knowledge and years of experience have been of immense value at these
carnivals and she has regularly assisted colleagues in developing their own skills in order that they make a more
effective contribution themselves.
Mrs Holloway organised Friday afternoon swimming lessons as part of our sporting program, ensuring all aspects of
policy and procedure were followed correctly. This involved liaising with the Aquatic Centre, negotiating with staff
and parents, ensuring students were placed into correct groups and completing Risk Assessments and Behaviour
Management Plans for students. As a result, Tomaree Public is the only school in the local area that can offer this
program to support our students.
Congratulations Sue…so very well deserved!
Year 6 Fair
Congratulations to Mrs Donovan and the Year 6 students for their wonderful efforts at the Year 6 Fair. A great time
was had by all. Thank you to all of our parents and students for supporting the seniors in our school in their
fundraising efforts.
Joint P&C Meeting
Tonight we are having a joint TPS and THS P&C meeting, starting at 6pm in the staff common room. Mrs Kate
Washington will be addressing the meeting and answering questions.
Kindergarten 2019
We had the first of our classroom visits for our new Kindergarten students for 2019 this week. It was lovely to see
our current and incoming students mixing so well. If you have a child who will be beginning with us next year and is
yet to attend an orientation, please contact the office as soon as possible.
Grandfriends’ Assembly + 20th Anniversary
Tomorrow we are having our Grandfriend’s/20th Anniversary Assembly. There will be a BBQ for our Grandfriends in
the morning before school, followed by an assembly at 9.45am. Please come along and join in the fun!
Take care and have a wonderful week
