Week 2 ●Term 4 ●2018

Hello Vincent Community!

Principal’s report Hello everyone!

This week is Be respected week. This is about

being the good example for friends, class mates and all

students in the school: Students use the High Five to

solve their problems. They are kind and caring. They

have interesting conversations and keep their hands and

feet to themselves. They can answer the 5 Questions for

Students during lessons.

PUPIL FREE DAY: Monday 22 October (next

week). No students attend school on Monday.

Ready-for-Prep-2019: Friday mornings program

starts TOMORROW, 9:00 – 11:00am, in the Prep Block,

room P2 (next to Prep classroom). Parents must come

with their children.

Enrol for Prep 2019: We have vacancies in our

Prep class for next year Spread the word!

Farewell Mr Brenton Moore: Our groundsman,

Mr Moore, has secured a permanent position as

groundsman of Kelso State School. He will stay on for a

few weeks to assist the temporary groundsman before

his last day in a few weeks. Attendance: Last week there were no classes

who achieved satisfactory attendance, so there is no

picture this week of the winning class with Polly Parrot, the

Attendance Trophy. The goal is 90% attendance (half-a-

day off in one week) or better.

Running Club: Mrs Beitzel’s running club is

going very well. Every Thurdsay, students are invited to

jog laps of the oval, training for our carnivals at the start

of next year. Check out the tally poster on the school

noticeboard under C Block.

Year 6 Heatley Secondary College enrolment

assistance: Mrs Adams-Thompson, Deputy Principal at

Heatley Secondary College, attended on Tuesday to

assist parents to enrol their children at Heatley for 2019.

High Five fridge magnets: Are these on your

fridge yet? They were handed out last week with the

newsletter. Use them to talk about how your kids can

solve their own problems using Australia’s anti-bullying

strategies. Why not display the newsletter on the fridge

for our important dates!

Art Club: Our Woolworths Shopping Bag

Competition entries have been sent off. Thanks for all

your efforts Mrs Guy!
