Principals Report
Welcome Back :)
Third Term is always a wonderful time in the school year – students come back fresh from holidays knowing exactly what they need to do and what our routines and expectations are, the sun brings a little more warmth and the trees find their leaves again. Towards the end of Term information regarding parent teacher meetings will be sent home, we are always eager to communicate with families to help support your child in anyway that we can. Please always feel welcome to make contact with me or your child’s teacher about their learning.
After School Arrangements
The end of the school day is always an extremely busy time. Our school is unique in that every single child is either collected in a car or catches a bus. Making sure your child is the right place or on the correct bus is clearly of the utmost importance. To allow this to happen, please contact the school before 2:30pm each day to make any changes to after school arrangements. This allows us to get messages to staff and students to ensure they are in the right places to get where they need to be safely. Thank you for your help and understanding.
Playground Equipment
Students and staff have been finalising their ideas and feedback regarding our new playground equipment. Final decisions will be made soon and an order placed. It is exciting that in 4th Term it should arrive and begin to be assembled.
Talent Show
Boat Harbour has got talent!! Our students showcased their talents on Friday afternoon. We saw a broad range of talent from participants including, singing, dancing, gymnastics, magic tricks, telling jokes and much more. I love the courage and confidence students displayed while on stage performing for us. Well done to everyone who entered!
Art Exhibition
In week 5 the Boat Harbour Primary School Art Exhibition will be on display in the school hall. This is always a massive representation of the incredible creative skills from across our school. The time and effort from all involved to create and showcase the artistic attributes of students is outstanding. We invite you to take the time to enjoy the exhibition during week 5.
Book Week
We will celebrate Book Week at our assembly in week 5. Students are invited to dress up as a character from a book on Friday 25th of August. Parents are invited to join us and celebrate books and a love of reading with us, with students parading their creativeness and character impersonations. We will be holding a whole-school parade at 9:00am on the top asphalt area and we would love you to join us. Hope to see you there!
Weeks 6 – 10
During week 6 – 10 I will be on leave and Miss Samantha Hayes will be the Acting Principal during this time. Miss Hayes is an excellent practitioner and will continue to lead the strong pathway and direction of our school during this time.
