Term 1 Week 8 2015
Principal’s Note
Dear Parents and Friends
This week we had the Annual General Meeting of the P & C Association. I am
pleased to say that all positions were filled with ease and our new executive team
has now been finalized.
The 2015 office bearers are President - Lynda-Lee Wilkie, Secretary - Jen Tunley,
Treasurer-Kathryn Briese, Vice Presidents –Tara Routley and Deb Hoadley. I am
sure that this group will do an outstanding job during the course of 2015. We have
quite a bit on in the coming weeks and it will require a mammoth effort from one and
all to achieve all of our goals….but as they say many hands make light work.
On Tuesday we had most of our school population involved in a special photo on
the oval to acknowledge the national day of action against violence. Both Keith
Young and Doug Matthews did some special mowing on the oval to allow our
students to form the letters of “Bullying No Way”. Assisted by James Minchin and
his camera mounted to a small helicopter we were able to take some pretty
impressive photos. We were very surprised at just our impressive the photos were
when completed. I think that everyone enjoyed being part of this special occasion.
A photo from this activity will be published tomorrow.
As you would expect the final arrangements are being made for our FETE this
weekend and we look forward to seeing everyone to share this special occasion
with us. I would like to thank everyone that has offered their assistance with this
project , whether that be by volunteering on the day or providing goods for the many
stalls. It is certainly shaping up into a very memorable day for one and all.
Miss Kidd our Physical Education specialist teacher has been very busy training
students for our upcoming cross country that will be staged on the last day of term.
Most mornings and breaks during the week she can be found training students for
various sporting activities and I know that our students are very keen to be engaged
in these sessions. If you have not noted our Cross Country day on 2 April make
sure you put it in your diary so you can be present to share this day with us.
Tomorrow we have students heading to Brisbane for the Halogen Foundation
Young Leaders day at the Convention Centre. It is a very large event and I think
for many of the students taking part it hard to comprehend the size of the venue
and the number of students taking part. Mrs Paynter and Miss Batts are heading to
Brisbane with our students and I know that they are looking forward to the early
start to get the bus away on time at 5 am.
See you all on Saturday

This week at Dalby South we celebrated ‘Harmony Day’. The message of Harmony Day is ‘Everyone Belongs’. It is a day to
celebrate Australia’s diversity. Take a look at these pictures of the impressive display of flags that we had on parade from 23

talents with the students in Year Four and Five.
