Newsletter Term 4, Week 6
15th November, 2016
Stage 3 Camp & Stage 1 excursion
Stage 3 students are off on their annual school
camp this week. They will be attending Tyalgum
Ridge Retreat. This is a great opportunity for our
students to engage in a host of activities that will
include canoeing, high ropes, a waterfall hike,
BMX bike riding and archery. I look forward to
joining them for part of their camp on Thursday.
On Thursday, our Stage 1 students will also be
attending an excursion to a number of parks
around our local area. This excursion will be
supporting the theories the students have devised
in class about what makes a good playground/
park. I’m sure they will all have lots of fun!
Maths Olympiad Winners
Last Friday, Mr Boyle from Wollumbin High School
made a special visit to our K-6 Assembly. He was
there to present the Maths Olympiad trophy to our
school’s 2016 winning team; Lily Robinson, Ben
Kington, Jack Evans and Nick Sneesby. Mr Boyle
was especially impressed with the team’s design
and problem solving skills, however, what stood
out for him the most was their ability to work as a
team. Congratulations to these students and all
the others that represented our school at this
event.
Arrivals and Departures
We are beginning to notice a lot more students
arriving at school very early, some well before
8:30am. A reminder that no supervision is available
to students prior to 8:45am. If your child does arrive
at school before then, they are reminded that
they are to sit under the COLA area until the
teacher on morning duty arrives.
The safety of our students (and parents) are very
important to us. When leaving our school in the
afternoon please ensure you and your child use
the school crossing. Bus companies have reported
nearly running people over as they race across
the road between buses. Please set a great
example for our students and cross at the crossing!
P&C Meeting & Volunteers Morning Tea
Our last P&C meeting for the year is next Tuesday,
22nd November. As this is also our Christmas
celebration dinner, the meeting will be at the
Murwillumbah RSL starting at 6:00pm. I hope to see
lots of you there.
If you are unable to attend P&C, perhaps you will
join the staff and myself at our volunteer’s morning
tea so we can personally thank you for your
contribution to our school this year.
Have a great week!

State Athletics
Our school would like to officially congratulate our
State Athletic Representatives who competed in
Sydney this term. This is a very fantastic
achievement to reach this level.
Netball Gala Day
What a great day we all had at the “Netball Gala
Day” last Wednesday. Our students had fun
playing the great game of netball, which for some
of them was the first time they had actually
stepped on a netball court. In the end we
managed to make 8 teams with 56 students
attending. I was proud to watch the students
improve as the day went on especially in the very
warm conditions. We had some enthusiastic
parents that took on a coaches role and were
enjoying themselves as well. It was lovely to see
MEPS support the local netball club. Amazing
sportsmanship was displayed by all players.
Cant wait until next year.
