From the Principal’s desk…

Last Friday we held our PBL Colour Run,

which students earned at the end of Term 4

2017. Mrs Jackson planned a fantastic obstacle

course for students to run through which

included colour stations where staff sprayed

students with powder in the PBL colours of

green, blue and pink. The look of joy on the

faces of students from Kinder to Year 12 was

amazing, as many experienced their first

colour run. It was an exciting day all round,

with students reaching the first tier of rewards

for PBL in 2018 during Friday morning’s

assembly. All students will be treated to

morning tea next Wednesday, which I’m sure

they will thoroughly enjoy.

This week we welcomed Miss Rebecca Pettit to

the school. Miss Pettit is currently studying

Secondary PE and English teaching and is

completing her three week teaching

experience at Ungarie Central School. We

hope she enjoys her time at UCS.

Congratulations to Harry

Roscarel who was successful

in gaining a position on the

Western basketball team. He

will compete in the state

basketball carnival in

Tamworth in May. Great

effort Harry!

On Tuesday, our primary boys AFL team

competed at the western division

knockout/trials in West Wyalong. The boys

looked great in our new guernseys, which we

purchased in 2017 with funding that was

organised by the Western School Sports

Association. With Mr Cattle as coach and Miss

Pettit as Assistant Coach, the boys were

victorious on the day. The team will now play

in the next round, in Parkes during week 9,

where they will also trial for the Western AFL

team. Congratulations boys.

This week we have a number of students

competing at the Western Swimming Carnival

in Dubbo. Good luck to our secondary students

for Thursday and our primary students for

Friday.

Next week, most of our Year 10 students will

be on work experience at a number of locations

in West Wyalong, Ungarie and Lake

Cargelligo. We look forward to hearing about

their experiences when they return in week 9.

Until next week

SCHOOL HAPPENINGS

On Wednesday 7th March, Andrew Cullen (AFL NSW/ACT) from Griffith came to our school to do some coaching clinics with our primary students. This was organised to tie in with the unveiling of the "Big Football" in Bing Wallder Park. Andrew put our kids through various drills, which they all enjoyed thoroughly. As an extra bonus for our students, Chris Daniher also came in and talked to all our students about his football journey from Ungarie, culminating with Grand Final appearances for Essendon on the MCG. Thank you Andrew for the fun skill session and Chris for the interesting story of your football life! Thank you Arch for the fun skill session and Chris for the interesting story of your football life!

A BIG THANK YOU TO WORKERS. The Ungarie Advancement Group & Garden Group want to send a BIG thank

you to all the workers who helped clean up Ungarie in preparation for last

weekend.

On Saturday 3rd March, a large group of volunteers gathered in town to

tidy the garden beds, mow, brush cutter, and remove rubbish from the main

street and Showground.

Then on Sunday 4th March, volunteers again fronted up to pick up rubbish

as our contribution to Clean Up Australia Day. The volunteers concentrated

their efforts on the Ungarie-West Wyalong Road, and were responsible for

removing approximately 6 trailer loads of bottles, cans and general rubbish

from the roadside at the entrance of town.

So thank you once again to all those hard working people, and thank you also

to the Majestic Café for providing refreshments for the volunteers.
