time. Please assist us to keep our students safe. Thank you.

NAPLAN

NAPLAN results will soon be published and we are looking forward to this information becoming available to our school. This year was the first year that schools participated in NAPLAN online and we were one of the schools that participated in the online version. The Department of Education has sent a snapshot to schools and has indicated that 2018 Victoria recorded its best ever results in Reading and Numeracy at the primary school level. It is exciting to see that as a state we have seen growth in students achieving excellence in Reading and a reduction of students in the bottom three bands.

35 YEARS OF SERVICE

Sharon Taylor has recently completed 35 years of service to the Department of Education. This is an incredible tenure and commitment to education and influencing young people. Thank you Sharon for your service and work at EVPS!

PERFORMING ARTS CONCERT

Wednesday next week is our Performing Arts Concert which will be held in the multipurpose hall at 7:15pm. This year we have opted for a smaller performance which students have opted into. We are very much looking forward to this event next week. The office are currently contacting families to pick up uncollected tickets.

BOOKWEEK

Last Friday was a vast array of colour and book characters and both parades were well attended. It is so great to see children be given the opportunity to celebrate literature and we want to thank Ed and Leanne for their work in celebrating book week.

HUGE WEEK @ EVPS!

We’ve had an extremely busy week at EVPS which has showcased all of the value add ons to the curriculum.

Year 5 Camping program — Woorabinda Camp Year 5 Non Campers Excursion to IMAX Prep Excursions to Ceres Year 2 Excursions to Bundoora Heritage Village Year 4 Pit Gymnastics Our children really enjoy attending additional curriculum activities, thank you to the parent community for your support of these activities.

HATS

Our Sunsmart policy states that all staff and students need to wear a sunsmart hat from September 1 each year. Please make sure that your child has an EVPS hat ready to wear on Monday.

Year 2 Sleepover

As I continue along the theme of events at EVPS, Friday next week is our Year 2 sleepover. This is a critical component of our Camping program whereby students have the opportunity to have one night away from home which builds into two nights in Year 3 on Camp.

SPECIALIST PROGRAMS FOR 2019

We are currently planning for 2019 specialist subjects and welcome your feedback on subjects we have currently. We have placed a link on compass and would like our families to go on and complete a short survey. When you access Compass via the webpage, the link is there as a green news item. We have asked our staff and will ask our students and then make a decision based on these results. So far we have had 121 parents respond to the survey. Thank you for your assistance.

Year 3-4 District Basketball

On Wednesday August 22nd, 42 very excited students from year 3 and 4 left EVPS to compete at the Hoop

Basketball Tournament. We had six mixed teams entered. Four teams as Future Stars and two teams as Rookies. It was a fabulous day with all teams playing an excellent brand of basketball. Our Future Stars team coached by

Ben (ex student of EVPS) made it straight through to the Grand Final undefeated and won the final quite convincingly. The day was a huge success for all involved and we were well supported by a number of parents and staff from EVPS. A huge thank you to the following people who without their support would not have made it such a wonderful day for our students;

The coaches: Ben (Deb’s son who works in our office), Nathan (4NW teacher), Gerrard (maintenance at EVPS), Jarryd (volunteer), Teresa (PST) and Caitlin (PST). To our wonderful scorers on the bench; Alisa, Parent of Nevzat 4AM, Emma, Parent of Chloe 4MC and Ruth, Parent of Charlie 4PM, Emily (PST) and Gerard’s lovely wife Bridey. We had a large number of parents attend on the day and support our students which was great to see. Finally to all of our EVPS students who represented the school so proudly and worked hard all day, encouraging each other and living by the school values at all times.
