The Weilmoringle Word

Weilmoringle Students Swim like fish! On the day of the swimming

carnival it was an early start but

everybody was excited. Most

students went in freestyle,

breaststroke, backstroke and the

relay. Rebecca also went in the

butterfly. Everyone enjoyed

themselves and tried their very

best. At the end of the day

everyone had at least one ribbon.

The senior students went on to

Bourke for the District Swimming

Carnival. Those who entered the

novelty events had lots of fun and

everyone (including adults) was

exhausted at the end of the day.

Thanks to parents and teachers who

helped transport students to Bourke

and cheered us on.

Water wonders in Science

Water is crucial to life and obviously out here it’s even

more important than in other places. Our Science Unit is

looking at water. We are exploring floating and sinking,

sources of water, what we use water for, access to water

and the differences in fresh, salty, muddy, grey, running

and still water. We are doing a series of experiments and

will also visit the river, talk about bores and investigate

what makes water good for drinking. Students are also

investigating how people in cities get their water.

One benefit of using your

tool is that you can reuse con-

A great way to add useful

content to your newsletter is

to develop and write your

You can also research articles

Some of our students enjoying a sausage sizzle to celebrate the first week

back at school!

After only a few short weeks I feel

incredibly at home. The children are

charming, the families have been welcoming

and the staff have made me feel like I’ve been here forever! I want to thank you all

for the wonderful Weilmoringle welcome. Already I’ve been down to the river, to

church in the shed, back and forward to visit families in their homes and of course

regularly to the shop to pick up a cold drink or something I’ve forgotten. It’s a far cry

from the inner west of Sydney in the heart of Canterbury with shops and restaurants

on every corner and over 320 students at school—but I’m loving it. I love that I

already know all the children and many of the families. Their enthusiasm for learning

and willingness to give new things a go makes them a delight to teach. If I haven’t

met you yet I’m sure I will over the next few weeks. Feel free to call me and make a time to come by for a chat. If you prefer email mine is

[email protected] and I check it at least 3 times a day.

Thank you also to those family members who made it to assembly and/or the welcome BBQ. We will have another BBQ soon. It was

World Read Aloud Day last week so why not take the time to sit with your child, niece, nephew or grandchild and read them a story this

week, or ask them to read to you. The 13th February was the ninth anniversary of The Apology to the Stolen Generation and at school we

talked about what it means to say Sorry and why this was important. You may already have noticed a few changes including the slightly

shorter break times and the children have probably told you how hard I’m making them work. It is my privilege and obligation to help

your child get the best possible education and it is my expectation that we will all work together—students, staff and families to achieve

this.

Finally, I know you will all be pleased to hear that the 2016 reports have finally arrived. Please make a time to meet for your Personalised

Learning Plan Review meeting on Tuesday or Wednesday this week and we will go through the report at that time. Thank you again for

making me so welcome I look forward to working with you as we encourage Weilmoringle students to Strive for Success!

The Final Word!

More of our students hanging around at

home!
