Bullying Talk

I would like to thank Senior Constable John Smith for his presentation on ‘bullying’ this morning with our Stage 2 students. It is important to raise awareness for our students and how they can keep themselves safe.

Presentation Day

Tomorrow is our annual school Presentation Day. It is expected that ALL student wear full school uniform for this official occasion. As this is a special assembly and culminates 2014 at Eden Public School I would like to remind all students that their best manners are expected throughout the entire event.

Please make sure your child has a signed permission note to attend this event.

School Closed

As the entire school will be at the Presentation from 11am until 12 noon, the school will be closed during this time. Please contact the school prior to or after these times. In case of an emergency, please contact Eden Marine High School on 64960000.

Brekkie Club

This week is the last week of Brekkie Club for 2014. I would personally like to thank all of our volunteers for all their support of this very worthwhile initiative. A special thank you to BiLo, Red Cross and Campbell Page for supplying food and volunteers to support the program and to Mrs Daphne Hale and Mrs Overton for managing the program.

AASC

This program has now finished at Eden Public School. It will be replaced by a new program in 2015 called Sporting for Schools, which will begin later in 2015.

I would like to thank all the coaches and teachers for their support of this program for the last 5 years and also to all students that have participated in that time.

Thank you to all our community for their ongoing support of the school.

Have a wonderful week.
