At the end of each week a student from each class will be chosen for a Grow Your Mind Student of the Week Award.
To be selected, the student would have demonstrated Growth Mindset characteristics like the ones displayed below using either their Wise Owl, Guard Dog, Sensitive Octopus, Elephant or Sifting Sooty.
The Grow Your Mind Student of the Week Award will be presented to students during our weekly assembly on a Friday and recipients published in the school newsletter. The following week each student will have the honour of wearing the class Grow Your Mind Student badge during school time as a symbol of recognition for their achievement.
As the end of the year zooms closer, please watch out for notes advising you that your child has an overdue book. We would like all books back safely in the library before end-of-year stock take which starts in a few weeks.
Did you know that by reading for just 10 minutes a day, you’ll learn over 600, 000 words in one year? That’s more words than the number of people living in all of Tasmania.

As we plan for a big year in 2023, we still have a few vacancies on our volunteer roster – in particular we are looking for people to help out on Thursdays and Fridays. If you can spare 2 days a term, your support would be greatly appreciated – it is not to complicated, you are only needed for 4 hours and our customers are super friendly and very cute! New to the school – a great way to meet people? Get a group of friends together and catch up once a month. If you can help, please see Jo in the canteen or email us – cavescanteen@gmail.com

The recent Newcastle Permanent Primary School Gala Day saw many of our students participate in a fun day of football. It was filled with smiles, laughter, socialising, and physical activity. If your child wants to keep playing football in 2023, register their interest with Northern NSW Football and they will go in the draw to win signed Matildas jerseys, official World Cup balls, and $200 gift vouchers to buy football apparel/equipment. Visit northernnswfootball.com.au/miniroos to find out more.
