• My writing goal is to reread to help

answer comprehension questions.

I was at a Literacy training day last week and the main content was about the importance of oral language. Children

need to be given the opportunity to have conversa�ons about many topics and have books read to them. It extends

their general knowledge and gives them ideas for wri�ng. Please take �me to spend with your children hearing them

read and sharing informa�on with them from nonfic�on material.

Grade 5/6 Camp

On Monday 16th

May all grade 5/6 students will be travelling to camp for the week. This is a high adventure camp and

reports from other schools indicate that it is lots of fun. Fingers crossed that the weather is kind to us! As I will be on

camp next week there will be no report from me in next week’s newsle+er.

Tables

It is essen�al that all our students know their 1 – 12 �mes tables by the end of Grade 4. Mul�plica�on and division

require an understanding of tables and some students are being held back as they do not know their tables. I found it

useful for my girls to choose a couple of tables every couple of days, put them on the fridge and prac�se them o2en.

Then move on to another couple but keep revising the ones done. In class students are prac�sing them daily and it is

really helpful to work on them at home as well.

NAPLAN

Well done to all our Grade 3 & 5 students who par�cipated in NAPLAN last week. The results usually don’t arrive un�l

later in the year and will then be sent home to parents. It is just one form of tes�ng and the results can vary from

teacher judgements established a2er comple�ng many forms of assessment.

Pupil Free Day

The school will be closed Monday 30th May for report wri�ng.

Thanks,

Deb

National Walk Safely to School Day

This Friday 20th May is National Walk Safely to School Day, an Australian Government Initiative.

Students are encouraged to participate in an active method of getting to school. On the day

students can meet at the rotunda behind the Yea Pool and walk to school from there. There will be

staff members there to ensure that your child gets to school safely and available parents are

encouraged to join in the fun and walk too. The group will be leaving the rotunda at 8.30am sharp,

everyone is welcome to participate.

The aim of National Walk Safely to School Day is help promote children’s health and the

environmental benefits of leaving your car at home. If you catch the bus, why not walk or ride to

your bus stop. This day also aims to raise awareness of safe pedestrian behaviour. Parents are

encouraged to take this opportunity to talk to their child/ren about the importance of safety when

crossing roads and using shared pathways on their way to school. For more information and ideas

visit www.walk.com.au

See you out there!

BPay Request

Bpay is a great, secure and hassle free

way to make payments and the school

encourages families to use this facility. We

do however request that persons making

a Bpay deposit into the school account

advise the school what this money is for

and/or how to allocate. Please email

instruc�ons, date and receipt number to

[email protected]. This saves

any confusion and ensures no monies go

astray as we have had issues with the

departmental up load of Bpayments over

the last quarter. Many thanks for your

assistance. Fiona, Business Manager
