In this edition:
NAIDOC Day
Responsible Behaviour Plan
Dear Students, Parents/Caregivers and Friends, As this newsletter is being produced today we are in the middle of our annual NAIDOC Day. The 2018 NAIDOC celebrations had as its theme – ‘Because of her, we can!’ And it is because of Mrs Christine Lucht we can have a well organised day of great activities, sponsored by local businesses and companies, to celebrate indigenous cultures. Thank you, Chris and your team, for going above and beyond to ensure indigenous cultures are shared with our school community. All sectors of the school community are keeping very busy whether it be teaching and learning, administration, cleaning, groundswork, organising extra activities, professional development, training for various activities (sport and non-sport). There is never a dull moment at Moura State School as we continue to strive for great things – especially in Maths, Reading and Writing. Class newsletters are being prepared and distributed. These will give you another perspective of what is happening in classrooms and in the school generally this term. Please take the time to read them, mark
on your calendar any relevant dates and speak to the class teacher if you want further clarification around anything. Best wishes are also extended to our 10-12 year old athletes who are participating in the GRD trial in Rockhampton on 30/31 July as members of the DV team. LUNCHBOXES Please ensure your child has at least a sandwich (or similar – rice cakes) and a piece of fruit in their lunch boxes every day. These are much healthier options than roll ups, chocolate coated muesli bars, little packets of chips. Such items are a treat after eating the healthier things. Students are also discouraged from having cordial type drinks. Water, juices and milks are recommended. Chocolates, lollies, soft drinks are NOT allowed to be consumed at school. SCHOOL OPINION SURVEYS The annual School Opinion Survey will be conducted between 31 July and 25 August 2018. All families, school staff and Year 4-6 students have been invited to participate. We encourage you to take this opportunity to have your say about what this school does well, and how this school can improve. Access details for the Parent/Caregiver Survey will be sent home today with students. The survey can be completed via computers, tablets or smart phones with internet connection. Selected students will complete their online survey at school.

RESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOUR PLAN FOR STUDENTS Step Charts: Here are some details about each of the steps on the charts that are found in each room. Some of the rewards etc may look a bit different in each classroom. Purple – Outstanding Role Model: I am always being courteous. I am trying my best at tasks. I am keeping my book work neat and tidy. I will receive a sticker or receive a class raffle ticket. Blue – Good choices: I am working quietly and not distracting others. I am raising my hand to speak. I am following adult instructions immediately. I am asking for help if I don’t understand a task. I might move up to Outstanding Effort or receive a sticker. Green – Ready to learn: I am feeling happy and successful. I am prepared for the lesson/activity. I am teacher focused. I might move up to Good Choices. I might receive a sticker. Yellow – Warning: I am feeling unfocused. I am not trying my best/stopping others from trying their best. I am not following all of the 4 B’s. I will receive a verbal warning and move down the Step Chart. I will think about changing my behaviour. Orange – Choice point: I am feeling upset. I am preventing my teacher from teaching or my peers from learning. I am continually not following adult instructions and/or the 4 B’s. I will move down the Step Chart and have time out. I will make a choice about whether or not I will improve my behaviour. I will have a lunch time detention and miss out on my Weekly Star. Red – Buddy class: I am feeling angry and upset. I am choosing to ignore adult instructions and not follow the 4 B’s. I am stopping learning from happening in our classroom. I will move down the Step Chart and go to Buddy Class for time out. I will have one or more lunch time detentions. I will receive a phone call to home.
