School Athletics Carnival
Congratulations to all the students for their participation in our annual athletics carnival. It was great to see the team spirit and students encouraging others to do their best. The competition was definitely fierce. A special thank you to Gillian Star, Sharon Domjahn, Penny Headrick, Allana Shaw and Ian Langridge for marking out the fields on Thursday afternoon. The carnival was a great success due to the assistance of family and friends who helped in so many different ways; this is greatly appreciated. Thank you to Mrs Brown and Miss Sim for their organisation and to all the staff who helped the students practise and ran events on the day.
Semester 1 Reports
At present, teachers are preparing the students’ Semester 1 reports. They will go home on Wednesday 3 July. The reports will give an indication of the students’ strengths and areas for improvement in aspects of their academic and social growth and their commitment to learning. As formal interviews were conducted in Term 1, there will be no times set aside for interviews but parents and carers are more than welcome to contact their child’s class teacher to discuss their progress.
Fundraising for New iPads
Thank you to everyone who has donated to our fundraising; so far we have been able to raise $5,660. Our Robotics and Coding fundraising finishes in 16 days time. We put a post on Facebook so it would be great if you could share it with five others and extend our fundraising network out into the wider community. I understand that the drought has had a huge impact on the community but if you have friends, family, clients or businesses who would like to donate to our

K/1/2 News
This week in K/1/2 we have been practising our discussion techniques. Our key phrases are:
I think…
I agree with…
I would like to add to…
I have an idea…
I disagree with… because…
We are trying to build our language across all KLAs to increase student talk and make more meaningful discussions.
In maths we have been practising number talks, discussing how we worked out our answers and how different number combinations can build a number. Here is one of our number talks about the number 5.
And here we are sharing everything we know about scales.
We also talked about this week’s value Respect. This is what we came up with.

3/4 News
This week students will begin writing a new persuasive writing piece on an environmental topic after responding to some texts last week. We will be focusing on summarising this week as our comprehension strategy. Students will be developing their note taking and organising main ideas to help them write their persuasive text. In maths we will continue to practise our times tables and this week we will focus again on fractions. Year 4 will revise improper fractions and Year 3 will continue looking at mixed numeral fractions. In measurement, the class will focus on measuring the mass of objects accurately.
Students were using whiteboards in the classroom to develop their sentence structure during spelling activities.

5/6 News
I was very impressed with all the students’ participation at the athletics carnival on Friday. It was lovely to see them all encouraging each other in the track and field events. This Friday, the students have another busy sporting day with most students heading to Griffith to play in the small school’s soccer team.
In our writing unit on persuasive texts, all the students wrote some fantastic pieces on trying to convince different audiences to go down an action-packed waterslide. This week
we are going to use Andy Lee’s text Do Not Open This Book to write an imaginative persuasive text using humour and exaggeration.
Describing and interpreting data presented in tables, dot plots and graphs is our focus in maths. The students will also develop skills constructing tables, column graphs and dot plots from collected data.

Whole School Positive Behaviour Reward
Last Friday students at Goolgowi Public School dressed in the school values colours; purple, orange, and green. Students dressed in mufti clothing to celebrate the whole school reward that they had reached after collecting value slips. Students receive value slips for demonstrating the school values respect, responsibility and cooperation in both the classroom and playground. It was great to see so many students dress up. This is an exciting reward and the students should be very proud of their efforts as a whole school.

Hillston Golfer wins Goolgowi Open
Hillston golfer Wayne Mott has made it back to back wins, winning the 50 Year Celebration Goolgowi Open Day sponsored by Yenda Producers.
Mott won the day firing 72 off the stick to win by three shots from Hay golfer Don Lowe. Mott also won the Open in 2005.
50 years ago the Goolgowi Open Day was won by Jack Kelton (Hillston).
Goolgowi Golf Club President Geoff Elliot welcomed all. There were 42 starters from Hay, Hillston, Coleambally, Duntroon (ACT), Griffith, Lake Cargelligo, Coffs Harbour and Jerilderie.
Geoff thanked the sponsors and the helpers for the day, in particular the ladies who did a great job in the kitchen. Geoff then called on Club Captain Ray Christoff to do the presentation.

Rabbitohs Make It 4 From 4
Goolgowi remain undefeated after 4 rounds of the ProTen Cup with at 28-12 victory over Hillston at Stan Peters Oval on Saturday.
Goolgowi's near impenetrable defence was put to the test early with a wad of possession going the Bluebirds’ way, and for the first time this season, the Rabbitohs opposition was the first to open the scoring. Tries to Chris Smith and Tom Condon inside the last 10 minutes of the first half combined with two successful Jono Morris conversions saw Goolgowi in front 12-6 at the break.
Laurie Sandford kept his ‘try a game’ record intact and was first to score for the Rabbitohs in the second half before a determined Hillston side clawed their way back to be trailing by only 18-12 with 10 minutes left on the clock. A runway four-pointer to Tom Condon on debut to make it a double for him, and pick up the Players’ Player Mug all but sealed it for Goolgowi. Fullback James Fallon chased a kick through moments later to touch down and wrap it up for the red and green.
All 20 players stood up in what was dubbed as a match between archrivals, even with a few more uncharacteristic mistakes than usual and being on the wrong end of the penalty count yet again.
GOOLGOWI 28 (Tom Condon 2, Chris Smith, Laurie Sandford, James Fallon tries, Jono Morris 4 goals). HILLSTON 12 (Jimmy Arden, Ben Wesley tries, Tom Brettschneider 2 goals).
