Principal’s Column This Week’s Whale Awards and Class Academic Awards

Hello, Giinagay, Hai,

Nambucca Valley Art Show

A great night was had at the opening of our Nambucca

Valley Art Show, where teachers from the 10 schools

nominated students to exhibit a picture of their favourite

place. The Valley 10, K-12 Art Exhibition showcased public

school talent. Thanks to the students and their families

that came along and supported the event. A huge thank

you to Sarah Landers, Principal of Medlow PS who made

this event possible.

Scotts Head Public School provides quality educational

experiences which develop children's academic, social,

creative, physical, cultural and citizenship abilities. This

experience was certainly tailored, to assist children to

realise their unique potential especially in their artistic

talents.

At Scotts Head Public School, we work really hard to

ensure that all students are given lots of opportunities to

experience a range of extra curricular activities.

Recently at the Bowling Club and now with this feedback

below that we have just received, all of us as a community

should be proud of the contributions our students are

making to the lives of each other, community and the

valley as whole.

"Hi All

I just want to take the opportunity to personally thank

everyone ( Teachers, Sports Coordinators and Principals

of all the schools) that have been involved in our Term 4

Programs and our Gala day Event held last Friday.

We at the NRL Development would like to acknowledge

everyone for all of the hard work organising the programs

from K-6 during the Term and allowing us the time to help

develop some skill based activity games for the students.

The Gala day was just fantastic with all the help from the

Ladies at the canteen, to all the teachers who readily got

the teams to their fields on time every game. It was a

great team effort so please thank all involved.

Thank you to the students who were just awesome all

day long and their Sportsmanship, Inclusiveness to all

team players was just magical, truly awesome students.

All schools would be so proud of them all for making the

day so fantastic.

Many thanks once again.
