As we quickly approach the end of term 4 in 2022 our thoughts start to turn toward all of the things that will be coming up. Not long to go now till the Christmas holidays and having a well-earned break.
We still have a lot of things happening around the school. Our leadership team for 2023 will be decided soon and we are still organising our activities so all the students can enjoy the end of the year. Our PBL reward days, PBL excellence days, Christmas concert, Year 6 Graduation, as well as our Presentation Day are just a few of the things that are planned. We hope that you will all be able to join us for some of these occasions as we celebrate our students of 2022.
Swimming Scheme
Swimming Scheme is continuing into next week. All of the students that have been attending are really enjoying the lessons and having fun. Our last lesson will be on Friday 2 December. A big thank you to all the teachers and staff supporting this program.
Leadership Program
Our current Year 5 students are eagerly preparing for the 2023 leadership process. By the time you read this our potential captains will have done their first round of speeches and we will have culled the candidates down to 8.
These 8 students will be invited to speak in round 2 which will take place next Friday 2 December in front of the whole school. At this time the students will vote, and our captains names will be decided upon. This will remain secret until our presentation day where our 2023 captains will be announced. Good luck to all the candidates!
End of Year Activities
As I mentioned earlier, there are a lot of fun activities planned in the next few weeks. Please keep an eye out for notes and information as we want all of our students to enjoy them.
Visitors Coming Onsite
This is just a reminder that everyone who comes onsite to Goulburn Public School must sign in at the office so that we know you are here. This is following Departmental policies, guidelines and procedures and is to ensure the safety and wellbeing of every visitor here at school. Staff need to be informed you are here before you go into your child’s classroom as teachers are busy planning, preparing or teaching your child.
If you have any inquiries, please visit the office. Thank you for your understanding.
Finally, even though it is a busy time of year, it is a pleasure to see our students enjoying their time at school, and developing their love of learning. Seeing the students being excited about what they have achieved, their enthusiasm for celebrating each other’s success and the joy they get when they show off their work to other teachers is really inspiring. I have been very impressed with all the student’s efforts in class and am sure it will continue for the remainder of the year.
If you have any questions, please feel free to see me. My door is always open.
