Congratulations Scarborough on a magnificent first term of 2022. Looking back, Scarborough Primary School achieved some truly remarkable things last year and made a noteworthy contribution to the growing success of Your Move. With 40 stories posted, we attained Double Platinum last year and we earned amazing rewards and winning grants. This year so far we have posted 15 stories and have just today reached Platinum with over 1,000 points. Yippee!!
This term we took on a new Your Move student team from a mixture of Year 4’s. Over the last few weeks these students have shown great commitment turning up to regular meetings, taking on their new role with such pride and passion and sharing the student load. They have been using their skills to help to create new ideas and innovative ways for Scarborough to reduce car travel and increase active travel to and from school.
See story links:
We ran a few events throughout term one, starting with the “Hands Up Survey”, we celebrated “Twos Day” with related classroom activities, road safety talk for Pre-primary, and pulled off two relatively large events. The first, being the National Ride to School Day with a slow race obstacle course and second, the whole school event “Trusty Tuesday and Thursday Active Travel Trial competition (TTTATT)”. It has been wonderful to see how these events have influenced behaviour change throughout the school community, this in itself a huge success. The overall winners of the TTTATT competition will be announced the first week in Term 2! Well done to all the classes that have made this a great success!
The Easter Scavenger Hunt was a fun way to celebrate Easter and the last day of school. We called it "What you wouldn't normally see if you drove to school in a car". Thank you to all the students, families and staff for your amazing efforts! A huge shout out to the Your Move student team for todays setting up the footpaths, fences, trees and inside the school for everyone to enjoy in the Easter Festivities! Especially arriving at school super early to set it up. Well done team! Thank you families and students for participating in the hunt. Lastly, I would like to say a huge thank you to Mrs de Villiers and Mrs Daniels for all their amazing help to make the giant Easter eggs, that were used for the Scavenger Hunt collages which are placed around the school.
That's all for now. Stay tuned to what we have in store for next term!
We wish all our families, staff and school community an egg-cellent Easter!
Kind regards
Your Move Team
