Current notes requiring permission:
This term we are trialling doing some extra curricular activities during afternoon recess.
Monday – Green team (Environment/sustainability) with Mrs Bronish
Tuesday – 3-6 Dance squad with Mrs McQuillan
Thursday – Uno club with Mrs Coleman
Friday – Public Speaking club with Miss Punton and Miss Harrison
It has been a great start to the term and the groups have been well attended.
Here is the Green Team doing an investigation on how much rubbish is in our playground. We are now busy planning a ‘Clean up Schools Day’.
All families in NSW Public Schools are asked to make a contribution to the ongoing costs associated in providing a quality education. Unlike some schools, Edgeworth Heights Public School does not have fees for books, technology or specialised teachers. It would be greatly appreciated if the fee/s could be paid by the end of Term 1. The 2023 school contribution fee is $45 per child or $90 per family.
Zone and Hunter Trials
Basketball
This week Ryan H, Logan Z, Kobe S, Eli P and Louis C took part in the Zone Basketball trials. The boys were put through their paces with some drills and games to showcase their skills. The boys played well and represented the school with pride. Logan, Kobe, Eli and Louis were selected to go through to the Zone trials.
The Zone trials were held at the Maitland Basketball Federation Centre where approximately 70 boys attended the trials. Again the boys had to show their skills and all 4 boys made it through to the 2nd round of eliminations where there were 30-32 boys.
The group was then culled down to 15 boys and Louis was offered a position in the team as a reserve. Louis will attend training and hopefully have the opportunity to compete in the country championships in Tamworth in May.
All the boys represented Edgeworth Heights Public School with pride and great sportsmanship. Well done to all and congratulations to Louis on his selection.
Touch Football
Earlier in the Term Nate A, Noah M, Xavier D and Kyeemah J attended the Zone Touch Football trials. There were a lot of students at the trials and the competition for positions was very competitive. Eventually the players were selected to progress to the Hunter Touch Football trials and Kyeemah and Nate were successful in being selected for the girls and boys trials respectively. At these trials, Kyeemah and Nate played with great enthusiasm and displayed great skills and showed what they were capable of. They both should be proud of their efforts and congratulations on progressing so far in the trials.
Congratulations to all trialists who represented Edgeworth Heights Public School in a great manner.
