Principal ReportDear Parent/ Caregiver

With Term Three of 2016 almost complete we are beginningto focus our attention towards the 2017 school year. Beforedoing this however I would like to congratulate the staff andstudents on a really amazing Term Three and the incredible artproduced and performed as part of our Arts in Action focus.Last Friday was another very entertaining day at the schoolwith the students getting involved in dancing, appreciating theamazing art displayed in each classroom as part of the ArtTrail and finally enjoying the performances of their peers in theEumundi’s Got Talent finals. Thanks to all students and staffwho were involved in the organisation of the day and to themany parents and friends of the school who came along to viewthe classrooms and watch the performances. It really made fora great way to finish the term!

Independent Public School Expression ofInterest

The Education Department is currently calling for Expressionsof Interest (EOI) for 70 schools across the state to join theIndependent Public Schools Initiative in 2017.

Like all state schools, IPS are an integral part of the educationsystem. They partner closely with their school community tocreate and pursue a shared strategic direction which focuseson enhancing school / community relationships, studentwellbeing and improved student outcomes across thecurriculum. Independent Public Schools are required to operatein line with the same legislation, industrial instruments,directives, whole of government policy and national agreementsas other schools.

IPS schools are high potential schools, selected on the basisof their ability to clearly demonstrate and maintain improvedstudent outcomes for all students who attend the school ineach year of their operation. While this affords the school someoperational flexibility to test new ways of working it comeswith an expectation that the school is fully accountable to theircommunity and the department by sharing innovative practicewhich lifts not only the performance of the school as anindividual but also supports positive change across the entirestate school system.

Schools interested in becoming an IPS in 2017 are to discusstheir intention to apply for the initiative with their AssistantRegional Director or Regional Director in relation to the schoolscapacity to assume greater autonomy. In the applicationinterested schools must also demonstrate extensiveconsultation has occurred with the school community via theParents and Citizens Association, Local ConsultativeCommittee and the QTU.

At last week’s P&C meeting I raised awareness of the membersto the consideration of Eumundi becoming an IPS school.Further discussion and consideration will be given at the nextmeeting.

I feel that the IPS initiative is an exciting opportunity for usas a school community. Should you have any questions orconcerns relating to this please feel free to contact me [email protected] or call the office on 54726333.

QParents is coming to Eumundi State School2017

What is QParents?

QParents is an online portal that provides a convenient newway for parents to communicate with their child’s school. As aparent, you can view your child’s student information and alsosubmit changes to some of their details. The information thatcan be viewed includes timetables, report cards, attendancerecords, behaviour information and timely access to invoicesand payment details. Parents will also be able to update theirchild’s details, pay invoices online, and let the school know ofchanges to normal routine, such as when their child is unwell orhas to leave early.

Why is it being introduced?

QParents has been designed to offer an online hub whereparents can access essential information about their students,their activities and their performance at school. It should savetime and costs for both parents and staff, and will provideanytime, anywhere accessibility using a PC, smart phone ortablet.

Grandparents Day

Making Memories in Prep

What a wonderful day we had to celebrate the important roleour Grandparents play in our young lives! Many of ourGrandparents had travelled far and wide so we wanted to makeit worth their while! At 9am we sang some fun songs to ourGrandparents like, 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, My Gran boughtan Electric Guitar', etc. Then we did some fun activities withthem such as; chalkboard drawing, frenchknitting, playdough,paper craft, chatterbox making, grandparent stories, puzzles,mobilo, blocks and gardening. After that, we played Bingo andhad a slideshow to the music, 'You are my Sunshine'. We tookthem out for a very special shared morning tea. We gave ourGrandparents a special memory keepsake of their visit to ourschool; a thank you card and a footprint bookmark. What aspecial day we had with our Grandparents and Grandfriends. Itis a day we will never forget!

Prep C Special Visitor

We were so excited to have Lennox Freeman's Grandfatherjoin us in Prep C for Grandparents Day. Poppy Jim actuallyattended Eumundi State School in the 1940's. This is whatPoppy Jim recalled..."I started school at a young age. I rodea horse to school. The school had a horse paddock and ashed to put the bridles and saddles in. Because of WW2, therewas very little petrol so most children walked to school. Weused to have air raid drill each week. The trenches were dugunder the trees. The school consisted of three classrooms, aheadmaster's house, a shelter shed and a tennis court." PoppyJim is 81 years young and we were in awe as he shared somestories from his childhood. We felt so inspired that we called MrConnors to come and meet Poppy Jim, a past pupil from yearslong ago.

SPORT REPORT

2016 BILLY MOORE SHIELD RUGBY LEAGUECARNIVAL

On Wednesday 7 September two rugby league teams fromEumundi competed in the Billy Moore Shield ‘8-a-side’ RugbyLeague Gala Day at Maroochydore JRL. The carnival was oneof the largest held in recent years. Thirty schools were involvedwith nearly ninety teams competing!

Our year 5/6 Eumundi team played a total four games. The firstwas against Buderim Mountain SS, the second against CoolumSS, the third against Talara SS and the fourth and final gameagainst Tewantin SS.

The boys improved considerably each game in attack anddefence. After only being defeated narrowly by BuderimMountain and Coolum, the team hung in there - with the finaltwo games ending in draws. Some positive feedback for theseguys centred on their impressive teamwork and solid defencethat was put on display throughout the carnival.

• The Choir will sing a medley of Australian songs onparade

• Dress up as a Book Character on parade (discusswhether this is just P-2 or whole school)

• Colouring Competition winners announced
