A busy week to end the term. I hope you all like our new sign. We are all very happy with it! We have also updated our school website and parents can download a free app to view our website on a mobile device. Just go to our website on your mobile device and follow the prompts. All information is on our website. Our calendar is updated regularly and news-letters can be read very easily via this mobile app. Congratulation to Luke Wheeler and Mrs Swords for organising a fantastic paper plane com-petition this term. Finals will be held this week in the hall. We are all looking forward to this. Thank you to Mrs Lloyd for conducting master classes in preparation for this popular event. Our year 3 and 4 extension class has been working on a business plan and they researched and conducted a viability study and have decided to sell spider drinks this Wednesday at lunch time. They are $2.00. If you wish your child to purchase one of these please bring mon-ey on the day. Peer Support Movie Day is this Thursday 17th September. The whole school will be going on this excursion to see the premier of the movie Odd Ball. It is based on a true story and should be fantastic and is suitable for all ages. Students are required to bring recess and lunch. Recess will be eaten just before the movie and lunch will be at the adventure play-ground. This is the final activity for peer support groups. Please return notes and money by Tuesday 15th September. Thank you to Mrs Swords, Miss Browne and Mrs McLauglan for organising peer support for the last 2 terms, it's a very valuable experience for year 6 leaders and enables the other year groups to mix and develop new relationships. Students are to wear winter school uniform. Friday the last day of school is Infants Athletics Carnival. It will commence at 9.30am. Notes will be sent home about this. All parents/ carers welcome. Have a safe and happy holiday and school will resume on Tuesday 6th October after the long weekend. Students are to wear summer school uniform. See information in the newsletter about this.
Have a great week!

Hi Everyone, I’m collecting
soccer gear for this rowdy
bunch of boys! They live in
Port Vila, Vanuatu and des-
perately want to join a soc-
cer competition. However,
they have no soccer gear to
play in. Currently they kick
the ball around the village in
bare feet! I have got t-shirts
and have been given a few
pairs of boots and shin pads. If you have anything that you no longer need,
even blue socks, I would be so grateful for the donation. You can drop it off
at Saffi or send it to school to give to Tom or Alex Mitchell.
Many Thanks Liz Mitchell
Commonwealth Bank School Banking Update
Following the decision last month to recall the
‘Cosmic Light Beam Torch’due to a potential safety
issue, a decision has been made to also withdraw
the upcoming ‘Lunar Light Band’ reward from the
School Banking Rewards Program.
To avoid disappointment there is a new reward
item available for redemption in Term 4 while stocks
last. Students can now test their skills with a game
of Frisbee with the new Galaxy Glider!
Once the students have collected 10 tokens, they
can simply include a note, along with their tokens
on banking day to advise that they would like to redeem their tokens for the ‘Galaxy Glider’ reward
item. Don’t forget the Outer Space Savers Money Box is also available in Term 4.

SCHOOL HOLIDAY ROAD SAFETY REMINDER
FOR FAMILIES
With the school holidays approaching, daily routines will soon change. Different play locations and holiday destina-tions means different traffic environments.
So to help keep our children safe, families are reminded about these key road safety points:
Stop, look, listen, think every time you cross the road. If your child is aged 8 years or younger hold their hand when walking near or across roads. If your child is 9-10 years
old always actively supervise them. It’s the law that everyone wears a helmet when riding a bike in a public place. It makes sense to wear a helmet when riding scooters and skateboards too! Click clack front ‘n back every person for every trip. Everyone in the car must be securely buckled up in the right seatbelt or child restraint. Talk to your child about being a safe road user. Reinforce safe road behaviours by being a good role model! Children learn safe road behaviours from the adults who
care for them. Talk about what you are doing to be safe when near roads, in the car and when riding. Point out road safety differences and dangers in new environments.
This is especially important when on holidays in different surroundings. Roads, footpaths, parks, carparks, bike tracks and bike lanes may look different in holiday areas.
The best way to keep your child safe is to actively supervise them.
Talk and teach your child about road safety every time you are out an
about.
Remind other adults who care for your children to do this too.
You can find out more at:
Safety Town
Department of Education
Transport for NSW
Have a safe holiday break!

lice within the School. If parents/

their children’s hair and if any trace

RIDING CAMPS
Jackaroo Ranch (est 54 years) located at Bingletree Station at Upper Turon, are again running their popular horse riding camps in the winter
vacation.
Week 1 Saturday, 19th September to Saturday, 26th September
Week 2 Saturday, 26th September to Sunday, 4th October
Shorter stays are possible if camps are not fully booked.
These camps are for ‘horse mad’ children aged from 6 – 16 years. Five to six hours per day are devoted to horse activities including a one hour
lessons and three hours trail riding in the beautiful Turon Valley – with tuition still being given. As well, campers are taught grooming, saddling,
haltering, catching a horse, safety aspects and many other facets of horsemanship.
Previous experience is not necessary as beginners to advanced riders are catered for. We specialise in teaching nervous riders and developing
their confidence.
Other activities include gold panning, cattle feeding/checking, cattle mustering, camp fires and native wildlife spotting. (The property abounds with
kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, wonderful bird life as well as being a working cattle farm and quarter horse stud. There are Poll Hereford calves
and Quarter Horse foals now being born.)
This is ‘not just a camp’ it is a wonderful farm experience your child will treasure forever.
