SCHOOL CALENDAR

Jugiong Public School

Explore. Discover. Learn Dear All, Thank you to all the parents who came to the ANZAC Day March in Harden. It was wonderful to see all our students marching and continuing

the ANZAC Spirit. If it wasn’t for the parents who brought the students to these events the students would not

have these experiences.

I would also like to thank especially

Mrs Jones for attending and repre-senting the school and for Mrs Poli-meni for organising the flowers and

the much needed blankets for the stu-dents to sit on. To the students, I would like to say thankyou, it was

cold and we were all very uncomfort-able in that environment. But our stu-dents again were absolutely wonder-ful and their behaviour was excellent.

(Photos are displayed on the back of

this page).

Yesterday I attended the Anti-Racism Training and the school now has an Anti-racism Officer. If there is any

problems regarding racism please feel free to contact me. All schools in NSW Departments must have an Anti-

racism officer.

Regards

Russell

Bongongo Cross Country

Please remember to take a hat, full

drink bottle and extra warm clothing to put on after the run, a Tracksuit

and a jacket.

Bowning Athletics Carnival

Next Thursday the school will be travelling to Bowning for the invita-tional athletics carnival. This is for all

students as events have been organ-ised for K-2 students as well as the more senior students. Due to the

fact of clashes with events due to NAPLAN test timetable, postponed Regional Swimming carnival, due to

the last lot of floods, all events had to be moved. This meant that the organised Small Schools Athletics

Carnival had to be cancelled.

This Bowning Carnival will now be our selection trial for the Highland

PSSA carnival that will be held on June 8th. (For the Highlands carnival I was able to secure the canteen for

the Jugiong P & C—this will be a huge money spinner for our organi-sation). This Zone Carnival is not for

all students, only those who have achieved the qualifying time/height

or distance.

Did You Know?

There are now 65 alphabets in

use. Rotakas is the shortest (11 letters) and Cambodian is

the longest (74 letters).

Wrist watches are recently popular. They first gained popularity with artillery officers

in World War 1.

ZUMBA

Starting in Week 5, 25th May the

school is joining forces with Bon-gongo, doing Zumba for 5 weeks. The school funds will be providing a Zumba instructor and Bongongo

will be travelling here for 5 weeks. Each section will be given 2 sessions

of Zumba as sport for the term.

The students will be involved in regular classes with the inclusion of

Bongongo students and the Zumba

classes.
