Newsletter No. 34 Term 4 – Week 5 Thursday 7th
November 2013
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Remembrance Day - Monday 11 November 2013 Remembrance Day marks the anniversary of the armistice which ended the First World War (1914–18). Each year Australians observe one minute silence at 11 am on 11 November, in memory of those who died or suffered in all wars and armed conflicts. This year is not only the 95th anniversary of the armistice on 11 November which ended the First World War, but also the 20th anniversary of the reinterment of the Unknown Australian Soldier in the Australian War Memorial’s Hall of Memory. To mark the significant occasion, this year’s Remembrance Day Commemorative Address will be delivered by former Australian Prime Minister, the Hon Paul Keating, who delivered the poignant eulogy of the Unknown Australian Soldier in 1993. At the end of the day at the Last Post ceremony, Ben Roberts-Smith VC will read that same eulogy to commemorate the unknown soldier and the 102,000 names listed on the Roll of Honour. Experience Remembrance Day this year at the Memorial and remember all those who have served and sacrificed for Australia.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Lest We Forget
CLOCKTOWER SERVICE On Monday, 11
th November Ray Brookman and our Student Leadership Team will be laying a wreath at the
Remembrance Day Service at the Ringwood Memorial Clocktower. The service will begin at 11.00am. The Ringwood RSL is inviting all to attend this service.

Dear Parents and Friends of Kalinda Primary School
On Friday 8th November, Kalinda Primary will be holding our own Relay 4 Life to celebrate
our family and friends who have fought, are fighting, and have been touched by cancer.
The Junior School Council will be running a smaller version of the Maroondah Relay 4 Life
for all students in Kalinda to participate.
The afternoon, starting at 2:00pm, will consist of an Opening Ceremony, a relay around the
oval with groups of 4-5 students from each class walking a lap at a time. During this time,
the JSC will be running a number of small stalls.
These will be:
Relay 4 Life Candle bags – $2, all proceeds go to Team Kalinda. These will be lit (tea
candle inside) to shine a message for participants to see during the Maroondah
Relay Event.
Relay 4 Life merchandise such as wristbands, ribbons and other merchandise.
The opportunity to help decorate the Kalinda banner, used to represent our team at
the Maroondah Relay event.
A sign up stall where students, parents and friends can sign up to be a part of the
Maroondah Relay 4 Life Kalinda Team. Entry is $20pp.
Everyone is still welcome to attend the Maroondah Relay with/without signing up.
The afternoon will come to an end with a closing ceremony at 3:15pm.
We would love to see you there to support our school event. Facebook:

Japanese Day
Mrs Shaw and Level 2 children made lovely かえるkaeru for our Japanese garden!!
On Friday, 6th December, it is Kalinda’s Japanese day.
It is a whole school event. The school has been divided into Aka (Red) and Shiro (white) teams. This year, the
whole class will be put in one team colour.
This year, the theme is “かえる” “kaeru”, which means Frog! And more, it also means going back. Say, ieni kaeru
means going back home, motoni kaeru means going back to the original, wareni kaeru means being ones’ self. It also means changing, hatching and exchanging. There are 108 kaeru (frogs) at this year’s newly opened Japanese
garden. Some かえるkaeru might be hoping our exchange between Kalinda and schools in Japan continue on and
branch out. Some かえるkaeru might be hoping the area affected by disaster can return to what it used to be.
Let’s celebrate the Japanese garden at Kalinda and wear something like かえるkaeru!! Origami frogs? Frog
t-shirts??? Or otherwise please wear your team colour clothes such as a red shirt, red belt, red head band, white karate cloth, white socks, or a white ribbon. The best dressed student award will be announced at assembly!
We hope you enjoy co-ordinating the clothes and be ready for the day!!

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE As the warm Spring sun brightens up our vegetable garden we are excited to announce that our special space is now open at recess and lunch times. Many students are enjoying the new bench seats, relaxing, reading and playing games. The hand painted stepping stones next to the hot house are also being put to use with many imaginative hopping and jumping games. As we all know, November is poppy month, the time of the year when, by the wearing of a simple emblem, a red poppy, we salute the memory of those who sacrificed their health, their strength, even their lives that we might live in a free country. The Flanders Poppy grew profusely in the Spring of 1915 on the battlefields of Belgium, France and Gallipoli and has now become synonymous with great loss of life in war. This red field poppy has come to be known as an internationally recognized symbol of Remembrance and Kalinda Primary School is proud to have some beautiful Flanders poppies flowering in our vegetable garden this year.

Thanks
REMEMBRANCE DAY POPPIES Poppies will be on sale at the office in support of Remembrance Day. These are supplied by our local RSL and range from $1 to $10.

INTERSCHOOL SPORT DIVISION CRICKET SEMI-FINAL: Congratulations to Kalinda's cricketers! On a glorious Spring
morning, our team bowled first and – self-admittedly – didn’t do a great job with the ball, allowing Rigwood Heights to post a
competitive total of 77 runs. In a match that both teams played in great spirit, Kalinda’s batters were up to the challenge
however, and stormed to 113 runs before the game was ‘called’, shortly before the scheduled finishing time. This team will now
play Bayswater North Primary School in the Division Grand-final to be played at Kalinda P.S. on Friday, November 22 at
9:30am.
INTERSCHOOL SPORT DIVISION VOLLEYBALL GRAND FINAL: Kalinda Primary School’s Volleystars team (from Summer
interschool sport) will play their Division Grand-final against Wonga Park Primary School tomorrow. The match is to be played in
Kalinda’s stadium commencing at 9:30am. It is anticipated that the match will last for around 60 minutes. The students have
been working diligently towards 'tweaking' their skills from Volleystars (which is a modified version of the adult game, which
allows participants to catch the ball before volleying it) to traditional Volleyball - which they are expected to play tomorrow. If you
have any spare time tomorrow morning, feel free to pop into Kalinda to support Mr. Anthony and his team as they seek the
opportunity to proceed to Regional level. Good luck boys and girls!
OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO TRIAL FOR 2014 TEAM VIC STATE TEAMS: As 2013
draws to a close for School Sport Australia National Championships, it is timely to remind schools
and that opportunities for emerging talented sporting students to participate in Team Vic State
Teams will again occur in 2014. Click here to view the draft 2014 SSA calendar on the SSV
website. There is already a small amount of information available regarding 2014 teams. We
(SSV) endeavour to have all information on all 2014 national events available on the Team Vic page on the School Sport Victoria
website at the beginning of Term 1, 2014.
CALENDAR OF EVENTS: Just a reminder to check the school website calendar every now and then to see what’s going on in
Kalinda’s sporting (and everything else!) program. The calendar – and lots of other stuff – is located at:

Children With Type 1 Diabetes - Are You Challenged by Your Child’s Diabetes?
Research into parenting children with type 1 diabetes.
The University of Queensland is conducting research into parenting children with type 1 diabetes. Parenting a child with
diabetes presents many challenges (everything from the regular blood glucose monitoring and insulin intake, to more
general parenting tasks). The aim of this study is to understand the factors that make the management of childhood
diabetes particularly difficult, and to use this information to develop strategies that might assist parents in managing their
child’s diabetes.
If you are a parent of a 2 to 10-year-old child with type 1 diabetes, we would love to hear from you!
By sharing your experiences (confidentially), you will be making a valuable contribution to the development of much-
needed childhood diabetes management strategies for parents.
To complete the online survey, please log on to: https://exp.psy.uq.edu.au/type1diabetes
For further information about the project or to request a survey to be posted to you, please email Aditi Lohan
(aditi.lohan@uqconnect.edu.au) or call (07 3365 7689) at the Parenting and Family Support Centre in the School of
Psychology at the University of Queensland, St Lucia QLD 4072 (Fax: 07 3365 6724).
Thank you for your time and participation.
