PLEASE REMEMBER we are an ‘egg & nut free’ school: no eggs,

peanut butter, nuts or nutella spread to come to school at any

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

Keep your hands and feet to yourself. Everyday Counts!

Sustainability: It’s our responsibility

STUDENT LEADERSHIP

Many of our students have been working

extremely hard on applying for student leadership

positions in our school. This process has required

students to write applications, seek out referees

and present to a panel. The Sustainability and

SWPBS leadership roles were selected using the

preferential voting system. We would like to

commend all students that applied for these

positions and we would like to congratulate the

successful students:

SWPBS Leaders

Ashreet, Slavica, Stefania, Navjot, Abbas, Nishta,

Mohammed A and Aden

Sustainability Leaders

Energy: Alara and Arsham

Biodiversity: Camila and Seechu

Water: Samuil and Victoria

Waste: Dajana and Shagun

SCHOOL DISCO

Friday night fever hit EVPS at our

School Disco. While John Travolta was

not in the house, there have been

reports that there were a number of

students attempting a revival of old

school disco dance moves. What a turn

out we had to both sessions and many

students have told us they had a great time. I would

like to acknowledge the hard work behind the

scenes of our fundraising committee who are

working tirelessly to put on great events whilst raising funds for our much needed gym. If you can

lend a helping hand, see Stacey in the office.

CANBERRA CAMP

49 students and 33 staff members have braved the

cold Canberra weather this week on our Year 6

camp. The Canberra camp is a highlight in our

camping program and offers students to be

immersed in our country’s national culture.

Students have spent time at Parliament, Australian

Electoral Commission which has been a hive of

activity the past month, as well as visiting the

National War Memorial, the

Mint and Questacon.

MATHEMATICS REPORTING

Recently we sent home some information regarding

changes to our Semester Reports in the area of

Mathematics. This year your child’s Mathematics

report will be tailored to the level your child is

working in and skills demonstrated using a checklist. After reports have been issued via

Compass, we will be seeking parent feedback.

Roadworks around Epping Views Primary School

Construction of a new roundabout at the intersection of Lyndarum Drive and Dunolly Street

will begin shortly.

There will also be some minor road improvement works on Mansfield Street, Dunolly Street

and Lyndarum Drive.

The upgrade will improve traffic flow and congestion around Epping Views Primary School,

especially during busy school drop-off and pick-up times.

The construction is expected to take up to six weeks, depending on the weather, with

completion by the end of June. Traffic management will be in place, however there may

some inconvenience during the construction period. We thank you for your understanding.

Dahlia from 2MA has shown our school value of Caring. She has done this by donating her hair to Variety, a charity that supports children and their families with serious medical conditions.

“I wanted to cut my hair so I decided to donate it to the Variety Club. We put my hair in a ponytail and the hairdresser cut just above the elastic. We then put the hair in a plastic bag and sent it off. It made me feel happy and proud because I had done something that could a child’s life. Most people would not do that because they like having long hair and will not give it up”.

Thank you to Bargain Depot Epping, Campbells Preston,

Coles Aurora, Coles Epping Plaza, and GJB Entertainment for their generous donations towards our school disco.

Also a massive thank you to the fundraising committee, staff and parents who helped make

the school disco such a success!
