St Saviour’s Primary School Newsletter “making a difference since 1863” 14 Lawrence Street PO BOX 1145 TOOWOOMBA Q 4350 From the Principal - Phone: 07 4637 1555 Fax: 07 4637 1556 Email: [email protected] Week 2 - 5 February, 2015 Donna Muir Dear Families, This year assembly has been changed to 1:30pm for several reasons. 1. Morning is the optimal time for learning for our children. Therefore, the afternoon session is better to host assembly. 2. Classroom time—it is crucial we try to keep our children in the classroom learning as much as possible—if we host assembly at 2:30pm then students are back to class with not much time before they have to leave again for assembly. Assembly may not go for the full 30 mins some days and then we are wasting time from assembly finish time to 3pm. When we host it at 1:30pm the children return straight to class with the majority of time for learning. 3. Parents welcome—parents are very welcome to attend and stay for a cuppa afterwards—the urn and biscuits will be provided for those who have to wait around. 4. No student class assembly presentations this year—There will be no student class assembly presentations this year as they will be replaced with Open Classroom Sessions where parents, grandparents, families can come and visit the actual classroom. We really want parents to come and visit the classrooms. This way you will be able to see your child’s work, browse through their books, watch a small presentation by the children and catch up with other parents as well as the teacher. Although Open Classroom Sessions will replace the scheduled assembly presentations I believe it will be of more benefit to our children to present in class about what they have been learning as well it also benefits parents because you have more time to visit the classroom and view what is happening? 5. Students will still be part of presentations throughout the school year but in a different way like Anzac Day ceremony, Whole School Masses, Family Fun Day and several others. So by not having Assembly presentations it will not disadvantage the children but rather advantage them to show you what they are learning? How proud will they be to demonstrate that to their parents and other family members!!!! 6. Assemblies will be mainly to provide information to the students but I want to emphasise that parents are welcome to come to hear the messages and see their child receive an award if they wish. All parents will be contacted this year to let you know if your child is receiving an award. This will only be communicated to parents via a slip that will be sent home with homework on Friday. This will start this week. Open Classroom Sessions for 2015 (any changes will be notified to you via the Class Communication Notes) SCHOOL CONTACTS: Mrs Donna Muir—Principal Mrs Judy Smith—Assistant Principal APRE Mr Sam Hannant—Senior Middle Leader/PE Mrs Anne Anderson—Librarian OFFICE ADMIN Christine Cosgrove Julie Robinson STUDENT SUPPORT Maria Dau ESL: Ann-Maree Ward TUCKSHOP CONVENOR Natasha Biggar BEFORE/AFTER SCHOOLCARE Hall Thorpe Sports Phone: 4638 7965 From the Principal - continued OPEN CLASSROOM SESSIONS—SEMESTER ONE It is with much pleasure I invite you personally to come and visit your child’s classroom—we really would like to see more parents in our classrooms to see the wonderful work that is happening.

Students are encouraged to attend as there is a short ritual/ prayer to commence the program. All parents are asked to sign up to a weekly Cluster Group which will hold their first of five meetings next week. This weekend we have an Enrolment Ritual for the children to be a part of at either the 6pm Saturday Mass or 9am Sunday Mass. These are not compulsory, however we do encourage you to participate if at all possible. Term One is preparing for 1st Reconciliation. Students are asked to bring a suitable photo of themselves to their Cluster Group, which will then be displayed in the Cathedral for the duration of the program (One semester). Whilst most of the participants are Year 4 students, there is usually a small group of older students, from both within St Saviour’s Primary and from the wider community. If you have any questions, please contact me or Paula Wagner via the School Office. Whole School Mass: Next Tuesday 10th February at 1:15pm we gather at St Patrick’s Cathedral for our first whole school Mass. All students (P-6) will be participating and all parents are warmly invited to join us in this special Liturgy.

The newly elected School Captains, Vice Captains, House Captains and Councillors will be announced as well. We encourage all families to attend this special ceremony. Choir: Please remember to return choir notes to myself or Miss Ruhle registering your child’s interest in participating in the 2015 school choir. Have a wonderful weekend. Judy General Notices School Photos: School Photos for 2015 will be on MONDAY 16TH FEBRUARY. The photos will be taken by Owens Studio Professional Photography.

FAMILY PHOTO ENVELOPES - If you require a family photo envelope please call in to the office to collect one. Siblings from St Saviour’s College are welcome to be part of the photo, however approval will need to given from the College for your daughter to come down for the photo. St Saviour’s Primary Skoolbag APP: Skoolbag is a company who provide an APP for your smart devices where the school and parents can communicate to each other. The APP is synchronised with our website and it provides you with the latest information about what is happening around the school. Push alerts are one of the main features of this APP where the office can send you a message about a bus being late or reminders about events the next day. Parents will be able to access Class Communication Notes, Newsletters and any other calendar events plus several other great features. Our aim is to ensure all families have downloaded the APP by the end of Term 1. We use this as our main form of communication to the families. As always we will always provide hard copies of Newsletters and send emails to ensure everyone in the community recieve the latest information. An instruction sheet has been attached to this Newsletter for new families on how to download the APP. Newsletters and other information will be updated on the APP and it will be linked to the school website too. We look forward to making communication more efficient and convenient for you. Pink Record Cards: Each family was sent home a Pink Record Card last week. It is important that these be returned as soon as possible as these cards ensure that our records are kept up to date. Parking: Parents be aware of the PARKING SIGNS on Perth Street. Parent who are parking on Perth Street need to be aware of the BUS ZONE signs. Several parents are parking in these areas at 3pm causing congestion for the buses arriving. The safety of our children is of utmost importance - please do the right thing and park in the designated areas or carparks around the school. The police do monitor this area quite regularly and issue tickets for those who are parking illegally. Volunteer Forms: Please remember to return your Volunteer Forms to the office. You must be registered to commence any form of volunteer work within the school. There are two forms that need to be returned. School Fees: School Fees have been sent home this week with the eldest in the family. The due date for payment is Friday 13th March. Payment can be made at the office via eftpos/cash/cheque or direct deposit. General Notices continued Bookclub: The book club brochures for term 1 are being distributed tomorrow. If you would like to place an order please complete the order form and return to school by Thursday 12th Feb. It would be greatly appreciated if payments could be made by credit card to help streamline the ordering process. Please complete the receipt details on your order form once payment has been made. Please note that we haven’t opted-in to the new LOOP payment system for this term (you will see this option on the order form). If you are unable to pay by credit card a cheque payment will be fine but we are unable to accept any cash payments except for the gold coin programme (see below) sorry. If paying by cheque please make cheques payable to Scholastic Australia. Gold Coin Book Program - In each book club brochure there is a great book offered for $1.00 or $2.00. Book club does this because they believe every child deserves the chance to take home a great book & experience independent reading for pleasure. We would also like our students to have the opportunity to receive a book from book club & experience the excitement of those classroom book deliveries. If you wish to place an order for the gold book only you may pay in cash… perhaps some of the children would like to pay for their own gold book. Please understand that this can be for gold books only. Place your order form with the correct money in a sealed zip lock bag or envelope when returning to school. This issue there is also a Golden Ticket competition running. You could be one of the lucky winners of a $2, $5, $10 or $20 voucher with your order. Thank you for your support! Due to the fabulous response to book club in term 4 last year the school received well over $500.00 to spend on resources. If parents would like to order books for gifts or do not wish book orders to be delivered to the classroom please attach a note to your order form & we are happy to leave your order at the office for collection.

This is very exciting for us because Jackie is such a passionate advocate for children accessing well written stories. Her writing career is a great example of what can come from a desire to tell stories, supported by thorough research and keen observation of people and the world. Read Jackie’s Wombat picture books aloud to your children and I can guarantee you will be laughing before you finish.
