Principal’s Report Parent Surveys

Thank you to those families who have already returned their Term 3 Parent Survey. This is a great chance for families to give feedback to the school and for us to make adjustments as necessary. All surveys are anonymous and can be placed in the box in the front office. Please return all surveys before next Friday. K-2 Excursion

Students should be arriving home from the K-2 excursion at approximately 3:30pm today. Updates will be placed on our Skoolbag App & Facebook Page. Students are attending a live

performance of Possum Magic and visiting Kidstown. We have been busy reading Mem Fox books in preparation for our show today. Thank you to Miss Lewis for organising this fun learning experience for our K-2 students.

St Joseph’s Performance

Tomorrow we will walk over to Finley High School to watch ‘Do you want to find a snowman?’ performed by students from St Joseph’s School. As the performance begins at 11.30am, we will have a slightly earlier recess time. Students will be back at school in time for a normal lunch. Thank you to our friends at St Joseph’s for inviting us! Staff Professional Learning

This week our staff will travel to a number of professional learning opportunities, including Quality Teaching Rounds and a Positive Behaviour for Learning Showcase. These opportunities allow staff to expand on the learning programs we are implementing at school including Curiosity and Powerful Learning & Positive Behaviour for Learning (PBL). School Holidays

Term 3 ends on Friday 27th September. Students will have two weeks of school holidays before returning to school on Monday 14th October. Please note there is no Staff Development Day on the first Monday of Term. Teachers will be talking to students about holiday safety before the break. We hope that all families have a happy and safe two weeks. P&C Meeting

The Finley Public School P&C will meet in the school library next Monday 23rd September at 7pm. The P&C is a wonderful organisation which supports the students at our school. Without the P&C our canteen, excursion subsidies and school events like the Father’s Day Stall would not be able to happen! All parents and carers are most welcome to attend! I look forward to a productive meeting on Monday night!

Excess Furniture The school is in the process of cleaning out storage areas around the school so they can be utilized for better purposes. We have excess furniture items that are no longer used and don’t meet current requirements for use in schools. We will be offering many of these items for sale. Items must be paid for on pick up and we are not able to hold items for pick up at a later date or time. The first items to be available for purchase are small chairs in 2 sizes, we have a limited quantity available for $2 per chair. Please come into the school office if you wish to purchase these items. More items will be offered in coming weeks

Have a great week!
