Hello, Giinagay, Hai
Happy Education Week 2020!
This year the theme for our celebration of public education in NSW is “Learning Together”. It is a very fitting title in any year, but perhaps even more so in 2020 given the impact of Covid-19 on schools.
Our school community has certainly been on an extended learning curve throughout the year and Education Week is a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge the resilience, dedication and flexibility of our amazing staff, students, parents and the wider community under incredibly difficult circumstances.
Please take time to log into our Facebook page or your students class dojo’s and see all the exciting posts and films which are a showcase of all the activities learning together.
Thanks, yaarri yaraang, terima kasih.

On Wednesday the 4/5/6 students were treated to a 'Maths Magic' session by two teachers from Macksville High School, Mr Jeff Mills and Mr Craig Holden. Students participated in a range of problem solving activities to build our thinking around mathematics and what a mathematician is in the 'real world'. Students will participate in more sessions in the even weeks of this term. This program will aid to build transition to high school.
This week Interrelate came to have a live workshop with the boys. The workshops had previously been via zoom.
The Mobile Dental Clinic is back at our school. Please see the attached letter from the Department advising the program can recommence.
If you wish your child to be included in the program, and you have not previously completed a form, please contact the office.
Every student will have the opportunity to go to the library each Thursday. Please make sure your child has a library bag and brings it to school each Thursday.
Please send orders to the office by Friday 7 August.
Alfira is coming to the school to do dancing with the Kindergarten students each Wednesday. During lunch she holds classes with other students.
Stuarts Point Art House have implemented our COVID Safe Plan and will reopen for classes in the week beginning Monday 3 August. This term we will be running: Aboriginal Cultural Craft (all ages) Nature Art (kids) Hip Hop dance (kids) Mums n Bubs Movement Movement Meditation (adults) Family yoga is also planned to start later in the term. Due to COVID regulations we can have a maximum of 12 people in the Art House, so students will need to book in with teachers prior to the classes. Further information on enrolments and a finalised timetable will be provided to schools and posted on our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/Stuarts-Point-Art-House-103724984540493/ and local community platforms in the coming days.
