Welcome back to Term 2! We have had a fantastic start to the Term with learning routines taking off from day one.  Our school jumpers look fantastic and are certainly doing a great job keeping students warm when tackling the recent chilly mornings.

Last week our Grade 6 students travelled the state for the week while on their school camp.  This is always a highlight for students in their final year of primary school and it was wonderful to hear how well they represented our school while accessing so many different opportunities while in and around Launceston and Hobart.  Multiple times every day staff were approached from service providers or members of the public to compliment students on their behaviour, manners and positive attitudes.  Thank you to Mrs Wilson, Miss Nicholls and Mr Groenewege for giving your time to provide this opportunity for our students, you helped create memories for students that they will look back at fondly well into the future.

At the beginning of Term 2 it was confirmed that Miss Georgette Moore has accepted a permanent assignment of duties at Burnie Primary School.  Miss Moore has held a number of roles across Boat Harbour Primary School during a very long and committed 17 year period.  Whether it was as a Kinder teacher, a member of Senior Staff, Support teacher, Advanced Skills Teacher, Flying Start teacher, Early Childhood teacher or Acting Principal, students and families have always valued the care and dedication Miss Moore has demonstrated to supporting student learning.  Congratulations on such a significant contribution to our wonderful school Miss Moore, we wish you all the best at your new school.
