Principal’s Report It is great to be back and hear the friendly welcoming voices of our students and to see some of the improvements to the playground. The new vertical gardens and the green hungry caterpillar are excellent additions. It has been such a pleasure to hear about all the successful events that happened during my absence – such as the STEAM exhibits on Open Day, success for our ensembles at the Australian School Band and Orchestra Festival and Ryde Eisteddfod, our successful Wakakirri performance and the Artshow. Term 3 is always a busy term of showcasing and events, that bring the whole community together. I thank the students, staff and parents for all of their contributions to making these experiences and opportunities possible. In particular I wish to thank Ms Scully for doing such an outstanding job as relieving Principal in my absence. SASS Recognition Week This week is SASS (School Administrative and Support Staff) week across NSW. Professional and effective SASS are essential to the success of any school. We are so fortunate to have wonderful SASS working in our offices, library, grounds and classrooms.

Artshow – Express Yourself What an amazing Artshow we saw last week. From all reports there was a great crowd for the opening night and I have already had wonderful feedback from several parents who attended. I managed to sneak a look with my family last week and was so impressed with what our students managed to achieve. The Express Yourself exhibition was an outstanding display of our talented students who were guided by specialist teachers Ms Elizabeth Dunn and Ms Meredith Rasdall. I thank Ms Dunn and Ms Rasdall for their long time support of visual arts at Lane Cove Public School. I also thank Ms King for all of her passion, organization and facilitation of this important program.

THE RAGTAGD SYSTEM WAS INTRODUCED TO LCPS JUST OVER 2 YEARS AGO SO MANY OLDER ITEMS DO NOT HAVE SMART TAGS IN THEM, BUT DID YOU KNOW WE SELL THEM AT THE UNIFORM
SHOP?
2 TAGS FOR $10 Order through Munch Monitor or pop into the shop
The RagTagd system has been very successful with over 1000 text messages sent in the past year for items that have been returned to Lost Property. The system works when items have been returned to the Lost Property shelves where
the scanner is located and a message is generated and sent. Our recent data shows that only 60% of items returned to Lost Property have been activated. Please remember to
activate the tag and also clearly label items with your childs name.
ORDER DATE EXTENDED TO FRIDAY 30TH AUGUST LAST CHANCE TO ORDER
