At Willoughby Public School we aim to cultivate socially-aware learners who are critical and creative thinkers, within a safe, respectful and responsible learning community.
Dear Parents/Carers
P&C Meeting
It was great to see the group of parents in the hall and connecting via zoom last Wednesday evening. Our P&C provides a great platform for communication between the school and community. It provides a chance to catch up on the learning programs in the school as well as events. We are looking forward to our first Stage 1 disco this evening. Thank you to the small group of enthusiastic parents working behind the scene to make this exciting event happen, thank you also to the parent volunteers helping out as well.
Kindergarten enrolments for 2023
Book in for a school tour on Tuesday or Thursday morning to have a look at the wonderful facilities we have at Willoughby PS. We are currently accepting enrolments for 2023, download an enrolment form from the website, then contact the school admin office to complete the enrolment process.
Kaboom Percussion Show
Our students had a very entertaining day on Tuesday. The Kaboom Percussion Show had everyone tapping and clapping as they watched the show. A great way to incorporate music and percussion in an entertaining way. Overwhelming positive feedback for the show for our students.
Kindy Teddy Bear's Picnic excursion
Excited Kindergarten students headed to the Field of Mars Environmental Education Centre in Week 5 for a day of environmental learning - and a surprise picnic with their teddy bears. Thank you to the Kindy Team and parent volunteers for making this day so special for our youngest students. There were many happy faces arriving back at school that day.
SRC Mufti Day
Our SRC have nominated June 15 for our SRC Mufti Day supporting Tumbulgum PS. Please bring a gold coin to support our buddy school on the far North Coast as they rebuild from the flood devastation earlier in the year.
Boys Vocal Group
Five boys accompanied by Miss Wiber attended the Department of Education Creative and Performing Arts Boys Vocal Group Program. The students were able to work on their vocal techniques while learning from other experienced musicians. It was a good opportunity for students to speak to and work with people from other schools who share a common interest in music and singing. Thank you students and Miss Wiber for being great ambassadors for our school. Pictures, a short video clip and more information can be found later on in the newsletter.
Kind regards,
Jennifer Simmonds
