Cambridge Park Public School
Exceptional learning opportunities for all
Working together to build quality relationships, engaging learning environments
and life long learners
Week 4 already and we are beginning to move towards half way through Term 3. It has been a massive fortnight with our students and families being involved in events all over the school.
Athletics Carnival Congratulations to all of our students who participated in the Athletics Carnival. The students were exceptionally well behaved on the day and did a great job of getting around to all the activities and giving their best attempt at all events. Our students times and distances have now all been submitted and we are waiting to see who has been successful in making it to the Zone carnival to be held at the end of this month. Thank you to Mr Fodor for of his hard work in organising this extremely busy, but enjoyable day. HYPE To the creative arts arena, where our dance, choir and drumming students did an amazing job of representing our school during a very busy Education Week. I was very proud watching our students perform with such confidence and seeing the big smiles on their faces while they entertained the audience and I definitely believe our school got the loudest rounds of applause. A huge thank you to all of the staff that commit to dance groups throughout the year, giving up their lunch breaks and their night times to be able to ensure that our students get as many opportunities to display their creative talents as possible.
BYFTSD THANK YOU every single family member that attended our 2019 Bring Your Family to School Day, which we are dubbing the best open day yet. The staff and students were amazed to see such a huge crowd around the school. It was a great opportunity for us to share how valuable public education is and to show off all the amazing things that our students do at school every day. The Back to School lessons were well attended and our open classrooms barely had enough room for people to stand. Our day was topped off with our annual fundraiser which involved lots of bright colours and lots of after school cleaning, but the huge smiles on all the students faces as they walked out the gate were definitely worth it.
Oral Health Assessments Over the coming weeks all student K-6 will receive information regarding a joint initiative between NSW Health and NSW Education to provide every student in the school with a free oral health assessment and dental treatment. This is completely free for all our students and will include an oral examination, clean, x-rays, fluoride treatment, and a bag of goodies. I encourage every family to take advantage of this program and sign the consent form, when sent home, as this is over $500 worth of dental treatment free of charge. Once the consent forms are sent home, Mrs Sirmais and myself will run some extra information sessions and question and answer sessions for anyone who would like more information or support with completing all relevant paperwork.
Looking forward to another big fortnight of quality learning at Cambridge Park PS. Mr Bourke Relieving Principal

Kindergarten News
Thank you to all the families who were able to visit
our classrooms on Bring Your Family to School Day.
We all welcomed the opportunity to share some of
our activities with you and appreciated the time you
spent with us.
Our “Living World” unit is under way, with the
tadpoles, chickens and ducks currently growing in
our classrooms. The children are so excited to be
able to watch the growing and changing “first hand”
and no doubt will be reporting back to you every day
about the changes they are seeing!
Please encourage your child to return their home
readers each week. The readers are now able to be
swapped on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Please remember to record on the sheet which book
they have read so they don’t receive the same book
again.
Another reminder that the Wallabies will be
presenting and performing at the PBL Assembly on
Friday 23 August commencing at 2.00pm. Miss
McLoughlin would like her students to wear a
colourful top for their item. We look forward to
seeing you there.
Please label all items of clothing, it is easier for us to
return lost items if they are labelled.
Parent/Teacher interviews will be held later in the
term and a note will be sent out with the details.
Dates to remember: 21 August - Book Parade
22 August P-2 Sports Carnival. Spare notes are
available at the office if you need another copy.

Stage 1 News
Thank you to all our Stage 1 families for coming to
celebrate Bring Your Family to School Day with us.
It was a great opportunity to show just how hard our
students have been working this year. We hope you
had as fun as we did!
In science this term we are learning about ‘The
Living World’. The students are learning about the
needs and external features of living things. We will
be introducing a very interesting living thing in our
Year 1 rooms very soon so keep an eye out!
We are looking forward to another exciting and busy week next week. We can’t wait to see all the creative costumes at the book parade and to watch all of the students trying their best at the P-2 Sports Carnival.

Preschool Newsletter
The Joeys and Frogs had many families enjoy open
classrooms in the Preschool on Bring your Family to
School Day. Families participated with their children
in activities inside like painting, play dough,
threading and home corner. We then headed
outside and had fun on the equipment, bikes and
sandpit. The Joeys and Frogs then braved the cold
and windy weather to join in the colour run. It was
so much fun to get colour all over us.
Children’s portfolios have now all been sent out. If
you missed the link in your email to view them,
please see us for another invitation. There will be
two tabs at the top – moments and stories. Click on
the stories tab to see what your child has been
learning about. You can also make comments and
like each page so please feel free to do so.
Book Parade is next Wednesday 21 August at
12pm. Educators will be attending so please join us.
As it is in between morning and afternoon sessions
parents will need to stay with their children.

Anaphylaxis and Us
As mentioned in previous newsletters we have
several children and staff members at our school
who are anaphylactic. If you are sending food to
school to be shared with other children eg: birthday
cakes or cakes for sale, please be very careful to
read the ingredients and ensure that they do not
contain peanuts, tree nuts and nut products. Some
of our children are also allergic to eggs and milk.
Please also send in the packet ingredients so
that we can check them for ourselves.
Other ways to support us to keep everyone safe
are:
1. Talk to your children about allergies and how
serious they can be for some people so they
must not ever share their food with other
children. Its not mean to not share food its
keeping people safe.
2. Discuss how important it is to wash hands
before and after eating so that food allergens
don’t get transferred onto other people or their
food.
Thank you for working with us to keep our children
safe.
Important information for
parents and students
The Department recognises that some families will
be subject to family breakdown. In the absence of
any notification to the contrary, it will be assumed
that both parents retain a shared and equal parental
responsibility for their children and have been
involved in making any decisions regarding their
children’s education.
This means that the school will recognise that each
parent has equal duties, obligations responsibilities
and opportunities in relation to matters involving the
school.
If any changes occur in your family relationships
which have the potential to impact on the
relationship between the school and your family,
you are required to advise the school immediately.
This includes providing copies of any court orders
that may be obtained.
Support Unit News This week we started a program called ‘Birds In Schools’ which aims to engage students in the scientific process through investigating and monitoring the birds and habitat of our school grounds. The ultimate aim is developing and implementing an action plan related to improving its biodiversity. This program is sponsored by Birdlife Australia and includes a incursions and an excursion to Penrith Lakes. The students are engaged and have already conducted their initial bird survey within the school grounds. Tom Covell is the project officer and you can find more information at http://birdlife.org.au/projects/urban-birds/birds-in-schools-project
