Dear Parents, Staff and

Students,

Congratulations to all on their great

work during our ‘Better Buddies

Maths Games Day’ last Friday. The

day concluded with a fun filled as-

sembly highlighted by the wonderful

Year 3’s recitation of the

‘Mathemagical Maths’ song, Mrs

Schumann’s ‘Heads and Tails’ game

which was eventually won by Adam

O’Brien from Prep T ,and our choir’s

impressive performance of ‘You’ve

Got a Friend in Me’. We hope all

those new skills learnt throughout

the maths day will help families have

a go at this week’s Maths Challenge

on page 2.

This week we have presented two of

our 2014 Information sessions dur-

ing which we presented what Kismet

Park PS has to offer including: an inclu-

sive curriculum, extra-curricular activi-

ties, lunchtime programs, home-school

partnerships and a high level of com-

munity involvement. It was pleasing to

receive such positive comments from

prospective parents regarding the cur-

riculum on offer, student welfare pro-

grams, the tone of the school, level of

student engagement and range of re-

sources. We congratulate all – teach-

ers, educational support officers, stu-

dents and parent helpers on their

great work.
