Week 10 Term 4 2016

Stage 3 Camp

Thank you to the Stage 3 teachers, Mrs Ford and Miss Deal for

leaving their own families last week to spend the time at Point

Wolstoncroft with our Stage 3 students. It is an amazing

experience that I hope we can continue in years to come. Thank

you again!

CabraFilm Festival

Congratulations to S3M and Mr Morabito

for the fantastic result at the Cabra Film

Festival. Their movie won People’s

Choice and the overall winning movie.

This is an amazing result.

Staff and Students leaving

To all the families who will be leaving our Hobartville community,

we wish you the very best of luck in the future and all the best

with your educational journey. Mrs Brennan will officially retire at

the start of the 2017 school year and we wish her the very best in

her retirement. Mrs Fisher is taking a position at Llandilo PS and

Mrs Wilson is continuing as an L3 trainer and also a teacher at

Riverbank PS. We wish them the very best of luck in their new

schools. Last, but definitely not least, we wish Cathy Hession, our

canteen manager the very best of luck in the next chapter of her

life. Thank you for everything you have done over the last 10

years. It has been greatly appreciated.

New Canteen 2017

The Hungry Miner received the tender for our canteen, which will

be operational 5 days per week. We look forward to working

closely with them in 2017. A sample menu can be found on page

4.

2017

Students will start the year by lining up in their 2016 classes. New

classes will be formed asap when we know exact numbers.

Hopefully this will be on the first or second day.

Thank you to all the Hobartville community for your support over

2016. It has been an extremely busy and very fast year. There has

been so many wonderful learning opportunities and sharing

experiences, for which the staff and students are extremely

proud. We would like to wish you all a very safe and happy

Christmas break and look forward to you returning in 2017.
