Next, I would like to thank Fr Peter and Fr Michael, Fr Hal Ranger and the Parish for their willingness to continually support and strengthen the religious life of the school.

All relief staff have recent knowledge of the school processes and policies, student needs and teaching in the Catholic School system. It is comforting to know that the students in these year levels and classes will be well catered for during this time.

ASSEMBLY TIME CHANGEAfter much discussion amongst staff, Assembly from TERM 3 onwards will move from Monday morning to Monday afternoon 2:30p.m. – 3:00p.m. in the Mercy Centre. This change is to reduce the impact on prime teaching time for all students in conjunction with our Reading Strategy. On a regular basis several classes are impacted on the Assembly during this time each week. We are hoping this will be eliminated to support our readers.

2019 ENROLMENTS Thank you to the families who have indicated via Caremonkey their intentions for schooling in 2019. Planning for 2019 is well under way and I ask that if you are considering moving on from St Saviour’s Primary School for 2019 to please let the office know as soon as possible. Parents of Year 6 students need not email their intentions, as it is understood the Year 6 students will be moving onto secondary school.

Remember to let your children have a much-needed break over the holiday period so that they return in readiness to engage in another ten weeks of learning.

PERSONAL SAFETY In the lead up to the school holidays, it is important to remind students around staying safe over the holiday period. Here are some tips to discuss with your child around personal safety, particularly around being approached by someone they don’t know:

• Teach your child the power of “No!” when asked to go somewhere or keep a secret.

• Don’t assume your child will know what to do – have the conversation with your child.

• Try not to have a sole focus on “stranger danger” – “strangers” to a child often means someone who is mean or scary looking. Sometimes a person may appear friendly and may be persuasive enough to gain the confidence of your child. Rather than focusing on “never talk to strangers”, consider also talking to your child about people who are safe to talk to, such as a Uniformed Police Officer, or going to a safe place like a shop counter if they are lost or feel unsafe.

• Tell your child that no-one should ever invade their personal space. • Talk about trusted adults – an activity that can be useful is asking your child to

draw around their hand and write down on each finger a person they could talk to if they don’t feel safe (or point to each finger talk about if they have difficulty writing).

THE MUSIC BUSOn Thursday 19th July, The Music Bus will be hosting a promotion day whereby all students will have the opportunity to engage in a one-stop music education experience. The music bus provides the classroom, the teacher, the curriculum and

Drama Festival Semi-Finals at St Saviour’s Primary School

the instruments in one complete package. A timetable will be posted via Skoolbag for parents to also come along to see what is on offer. This program is at the cost of parents if they are wanting their children to participate in weekly music lessons. Further details can be found on the following website: www.themusicbus.com.au

PUPIL FREE DAY TERM 3Please note that Friday 3rd August (Week 3) is a designated Pupil Free Day in all Catholic schools in Toowoomba.

Our annual Bishops In-service day (BID) provides an opportunity for all staff members from our Catholic schools to gather with colleagues from other schools and with Bishop Robert and priests and spend time thinking, listening, talking, celebrating and praying together about important dimensions of our lives as Catholic educational communities.

This year the theme of Catholic Education Week is ‘Discovering New Horizons’. St Saviour’s College will be hosting the day and we will support our sister school in sharing our facilities on the day. Our combined schools choir will entertain the staff of the Toowoomba Catholic Schools. A great day to showcase our renowned culture and hospitality once again.

School will resume for 3rd Term on Monday 16th July.

I hope you have a safe, relaxing and happy holiday with your families.

CONGRATULATIONS BISHOP BILL MORRISOn Tuesday, the School Captains and Vice Captains accompanied me to the Jubilee Mass, celebrating the 25yrs since the Episcopal Ordination of Bishop William Morris.

Our students assisted girls from the College in greeting visitors and handing out the booklets.

Bishops and priests from several diocese were present to celebrate with their friend and brother priest/ bishop.

Fr Peter was at Bishop Bill’s Jubilee Mass. He has had a good report from the doctor and is heading overseas on Sunday morning, going to Ireland, Israel and Rome. He will be home towards the end of August. We wish him “Bon Voyage!”

NAIDOC WEEK 2018: JULY 8-15Cheryl Moggs, a proud descendant of the Bigambul people of Goondiwindi, Bungunya and Toobeah regions in South West Queensland is this year’s winner of the prestigious National NAIDOC Poster Competition.

Her artwork - tarmunggie-woman – was judged to have beautifully interpreted this year’s NAIDOC theme – Because of her, we can!

The theme celebrates the essential role that women have played – and continue to play – as active and significant role models at the community, local, state and national levels.

At Assembly on Monday morning, representatives from St Saviour’s College spoke to the gathered students, staff and parents about the meaning and significance of NAIDOC Week. Students from Year 5 then collaborated with the team of Brolga Dancers from the College to share with us the beauty of the Dance of the Brolgas.

INTERSCHOOL SPORT – TERM 3 – YEARS 5 & 6In Term 3, the year 5 and 6 students will compete in interschool sport on a Friday afternoon. Please refer to the note sent home on Caremonkey regarding this. The most important aspect is that children have all of the protective equipment relevant to their chosen sport. If they do not have the protective equipment, they will not be able to participate. The children have all nominated for sports so you can check with them which sport they have chosen.

Please see the list below:Rugby League: Mouthguard, headgear (optional), football boots (optional), long socks (school formal socks)Soccer: Shin Pads, long socks (school formal socks), football boots (optional)Hockey: Mouthguard, shin pads

If there are any parents who are willing to volunteer their expertise by helping to coach a team on Friday afternoons, please get in contact with Mr Hannant or the Year 5 and 6 teachers. Your expertise would be much appreciated.

YEAR 6 STUDENTS READING THE WEATHER ON RIVER 94.9Each weekday on River 94.9 during school term, students from a primary school in South East Queensland read the weather live from school. This week, five students from Year 6 have been reading the weather live at 8.30am on the breakfast show with Marnie and Campo. We congratulate these students on their role as a part-time weather man/woman.

DANIEL MORCOMBE CHILD SAFETY CURRICULUMDuring family week in Week 11, every class will take part in lessons about protective behaviours. These lessons come from the SafeStart Program and also the Daniel Morcombe Child Safety Curriculum. As the students are about to go on holidays, this provides the perfect opportunity to remind them about safe behaviours.

The first key safety message of the curriculum is recognise. Recognise is about being aware of your environment. Children, young people and adults can all learn to take notice

of what is happening around them to help keep themselves safe. Everyone can use clues, such as the things we see, hear, smell or feel to help protect us from harm and keep ourselves safe. Clues can be simple things that warn us about a danger, e.g. hearing a fire alarm or seeing smoke, that prompt us to react. We can also use clues to prepare for potentially unsafe situations, e.g. if we are walking alone at night, then we try to use a well-lit route and avoid secluded lanes or parks.

When we recognise that there might be a safety problem we can take steps to move away or reduce the risk or develop strategies that can help keep us safe. For instance, if you are in a busy environment such as the Ekka or a local event where there are big crowds, you might consider what you and your child could do if you became separated. Strategies could include: going to a highly visible pre-determined meeting spot; writing your phone number on a card and placing it in your child’s pocket; identifying who your child could approach if they become lost, e.g. police, staff at a booth.

HOW I CAN HELP MY CHILD…. “Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.” (Chinese Proverb)

Parents are always searching for ways to assist their children to continue to make improvements at school. As the first educators of children, parents are a vital factor in children’s educational progress.

Following are a few ideas to support your child along the way: 1. Let your child see you making mistakes. Parents are their

child’s first teacher and their lifetime teacher. Part of being a teacher is teaching your child how to deal with making mistakes. Let them see that you can make mistakes and deal with it so they will understand it’s not a big deal and they can cope when they trip up.

2. Keep in touch. E-mail is a great way to reach your child’s teacher without having to play phone tag. Teachers then have a record of a conversation or can print information out to put in a student’s file as a reminder. If you hear what your children are struggling in, please feel comfortable talking to the teacher about it. We want to know that they need help. Communication needn’t be limited to when there’s a problem.

3. Check their homework, and then have them explain it to you. It’s not enough to just get the answers right. To make sure your children aren’t guessing, sometimes ask them to explain what they did and why. This lets you know that the

child has completed the task and for the child to explain their work helps their learning.

4. Don’t compare your child with others. Don’t put pressure on children to be just like others. There’s no such thing as the child that’s like every other child. They are all different. They all have strengths and weaknesses, they all have “talents and challenges.”

5. Help your child make connections to literature. To help your child get the most out of books, focus on problem-solving, social skills and life experience. Teach them to ask an adult respectfully for help if they lose something (problem-solving) or to hold the door for others (social skills). With skills like these, children will be able to relate their own life experiences to those of book characters, improving their comprehension. If they don’t have these life experiences, when they are asked to make deeper connections to reading material, it’s hard for them.

6. Don’t do everything for your child. Sometimes it’s faster to do things yourself than wait for your children to complete a task. But having everything done for them means they don’t learn to take care of themselves. Empower your children to think for themselves and be more responsible for themselves.

7. Ask about your child’s day. Stay involved in your child’s education, beyond helping with homework. Even small things, like asking a child what happened at school, can be the difference between a child who unplugs at the end of the day and one who continues thinking about what they learned. Give them the kind of feedback that acknowledges and respects their feelings so they know you are hearing them. I hope some of these hints are of help while you travel along your parenting journey.

THANK YOUThank you for your help with overdue loans

Students with overdue loans will continue to receive notices this week. Please check in with your students and support them to locate library items if they bring home a library printout.

Thank you for your assistance with book covering

Thanks to Vicki Moore, Karen Taylor, Sam Mckenzie, Meaghan Keen and Angela Ryan who responded to our call for help to cover new books at home, we are very grateful.

Greg Mortenson stumbled, lost and delirious, into a remote Himalayan village after a failed climb up K2. The villagers saved his life, and he vowed to return and build them a school. This is the remarkable story of his promise. Told in the voice of Korphe’s children, this story illuminates the humanity and culture of a relevant and distant part of the world in gorgeous collage, while sharing a riveting example of how one person can change thousands of lives.

2C and 6M collaborated together to recreate their own interpretations of the story of Listen to the Wind. The story of Dr Greg and Three Cups of Tea. We had a valuable afternoon chatting and designing. It was a joy to listen to and watch as the conversation flowed easily between the age groups.

Yr 6 News

Year 2 ReligionIn Year 2 Religion over the past two weeks, we have discussed how the stories of Jesus are lived in the church today. We viewed the St Patrick’s Cathedral newsletter and discussed all the volunteer groups. Year 2C really liked the idea of the Ladies Friendship group who meet each Friday in the St Patrick’s Parish Centre for a ‘cuppa and a chat’. We decided to visit the ladies and have a chat with them. Year 2C also recited some poems for the ladies and promised we would visit again next term.

Year 2 Religion Ladies Friendship Group

Light it Up! with Year 5As part of our Science unit, “Light it Up!”, Mrs McCabe (Hugh’s mum) and one of her co-workers came to the 5W classroom to help reinforce and extend our understanding of the concept of light.

She brought in Hodson light boxes, which are special devices that help with experiments, so that we could make predictions about how light travels and how it helps us to see. There were lots of different mirrors and objects in the set that we could move in different ways to help with our understanding of reflection and refraction. Mrs McCabe was very impressed with the way that many students were able to clearly explain their knowledge of light concepts, as well as being able to justify their predictions. We were fortunate to be able to borrow all the equipment until the end of this term, so that our learning and knowledge can continue to develop.
