PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

Stage 3 Sport For the next three weeks our Stage 3 students will be involved in Interschool Sport with primary schools from across Bathurst. This is a great opportunity for our students to try new sports and to meet students from other schools. Assembly Time Change Week 2 – 4 Due to Stage 3 Interschool Sport our Assembly over the next three weeks, commencing October 26th, will be on Friday afternoons at 1.50pm. Canteen orders The first of our Wacky Wednesday Canteen days using the School Stream ordering system is taking place tomorrow. From our end the process has run very smoothly. Please let us know of any issues that may have arisen with this new system so we can make any required adjustments. Public Speaking It has been great to see the excitement around our Public Speaking Competition. Over the last week I have learnt many interesting facts that have been included in the student’s speeches. Did you know that there is a fish with a see through head and that a bear can run as fast as a horse? I would like to congratulate all students who have presented their speeches in class and wish our finalists good luck in Thursday’s Competition. Kinder Transition An excited and nervous group of kinder students arrived at school on Friday morning for the first of their transition to school sessions. They had a lovely time meeting new friends and staff. Red Day The SRC are supporting Wear Red Day on Friday, November 9th. Funds raised go directly to Ronald Macdonald House in Orange.
