What's On

LEADERSHIP REPORT

NAPLAN Thank you to all students, teachers and families for their support in the smooth running of the NAPLAN testing this year. We are in the process of catching up students as much as possible this week as a number of students were unwell last week. As a school we value the data this test gives us as one indicator to guide us with our teaching and learning programs. We have been extremely proud of the students who have been completely on TRAC, living our values and learning dispositions in their approach to the test.

WALK SAFELY TO SCHOOL Last Friday, our school participated in Walk To School Day. This day is an annual, national event when students are encouraged to walk and commute safely to school. It is a community event seeking to promote road safety, health and the environment. We have participated in this day for many years and once again has our ‘walking busses’ on route. One group began on the island and the other group started from the kindy. We even had a couple of students who walked in from Thorpes Road, their ‘bus’ had to leave home very early indeed!

NATIONAL SIMULTANEOUS STORYTIME This event will be held for Primary students next Wednesday at 11.00 am. This is a week later due to our student free day being on the national day. The story is “Alpacas with Maracas” by Matt Cosgrove. We believe we are going to be treated to quite a show - although it is still a secret about how it will be presented, and by who, we are eager with anticipation!

STUDENT FREE DAY Yesterday our staff had the amazing opportunity to hear from a literacy expert, Anne Bayetto who spoke to us on ‘What is an Effective Reading Program’. She provoked some great conversations, challenged our current thinking and gave fabulous resources and reasoning for ensuring the students at TBAS are immersed in quality reading experiences from R-12 and within all subject areas. We have so many ideas to implement and will be constructing whole school strategies to reflect changes in practice as a result.

AUTHOR VISIT We were privileged recently to have Phillip Gwynne, a renowned author, visit our school. He spoke to the Year 3-6 group and the Year 7-12 group separately. They were really enthralled by his life story and journey as an author. In the afternoon he ran an inspirational workshop for a group of our students who are interested in creative writing and these students were certainly inspired.

SLLIP/LID TEAM VISIT AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT In line with our emphasis on improving learning outcomes through developing our teaching skill in reading comprehension, we have had three visitors to our school this week. Kristy Newton the SLLIP (Senior Leader Learning Improvement Primary) coordinator associated with a group of schools, including ours, has been observing staff and giving them feedback. The aim of these observations is to improve our skills in using reading comprehension to shift all students into a higher band, including an emphasis on our more able students. In addition, Claire Harris and Christine Thompson from the Learning Improvement Division, ran a workshop after school on Tuesday about how to use dialogic learning in the classroom. This is where students have the opportunity to talk about their learning in a variety of settings, which in turn leads to deeper learning.

GRIEF AND LOSS The community of Tumby Bay was devastated by the recent tragedy and accident which occurred over the weekend and we would like to express our sincere condolences to the families impacted upon by this. As a school we have been working to support our young people as they deal with their grief and loss as a result of this. We were able to have members of the SWISS (Social Work Incident Support Staff) here on site on Tuesday afternoon meeting with individual students who wanted to access this service and many of our students also attended the gathering on Tuesday night put on by Eyre United Football and Netball Club. We thank them for this event which was an extremely valuable night for those who could be there. We know these aspects are the beginning of the journey to healing and we are all here to support our community in these times. Please do reach out to our networks at school and within our community if you are worried about someone and continue to support each other.

Four Compete at Gymkhana On Monday 4th May, some students, parents and mounts had an early start. Being in Port Lincoln and saddled up at 8.00am in the morning to present them-selves and mounts for a gear check. This must be carried out before riders are allowed to compete in any of the day’s events. We did miss a few of the first classes due to horses and riders needing to settle. As pointed out “you reap what you sow”. If you go out and they are being very fresh and not listening, you as a rider are teaching your mounts “it’s okay to be silly and not, listen”. It is also not an enjoyable experience. You must be patient, calm, a leader for your horse. Those of you who know Murphy, he loves jumping and is very strong to ride, Claire Slade did a brilliant job all day. Indy is an old hand at mounted games but the hacking and show jumping is all new to her. Tamika found herself miss-ing her “Paige Boy”, he would have been proud of you. Peta, I think you have lost your mare to your daughter. Katelyn Rynne rode a 16 year-old, Tilly and you both settled and were so relaxed, going around like old hands. They take their cues from you. Like the riders, horses have to start somewhere too. We had the most experienced rider Sasha, on the young green horse Hardy. Events like these make you appreciate your schoolmasters. The best person to teach you to ride is a schoolmaster horse. It is also a big responsibility to teach a young horse and forego some of the placings. There will be TBAS riders in the future who will appreciate and reap the rewards. RING A - HACKING ***Shane Tamika got some ribbons and rosettes. I am sure she should know what classes they were for. RING B - SHOWJUMPING 21. Encourage 40cm - Claire Slade & Murphy 2 Clear Rounds, Caitlyn Rynne & Tilly 1 Clear Round and 4 faults at jump number 5 in the second round. Both girls went into the jump off where the jumps were put up to 60cms. 22. 60cm Showjumping - Claire Slade & Murphy 2 Clear Rounds, Caitlyn Rynne & Tilly 4 faults at jump number 2 in the first round, Sasha Povey & Hardy 4 faults at jump number 5. Claire & Murphy went into the jump off where it was put up to 80cms. RING C - NOVELTIES 26. Secondary Schools: Key Hole Race - 2nd Tamika Berryman & Indy The overall Results for the day were:- It was disappointing the last two classes for the Hack Ring were not carried out - Class 19 - Pair of Mounts under (not exceeding) 14hh (hands high - height of pony/horse) - Class 20 Pair of Mounts over 14hh. The girls had been practicing and were looking the goods. PRIMARY HANDICAP RUNNERS-UP - CUMMINS AREA SCHOOL 42 POINTS PRIMARY HANDICAP WINNERS - WUDINNA AREA SCHOOL 44 POINTS SECONDARY HANDICAP RUNNERS-UP - WUDINNA AREA SCHOOL 36 POINTS (3 RIDERS) SECONDARY HANDICAP WINNERS - CEDUNA AREA SCHOOL 37 POINTS (1 RIDER) PRIMARY RUNNERS-UP - PORT LINCOLN PRIMARY SCHOOL 197 POINTS PRIMARY WINNERS - CUMMINS AREA SCHOOL 201 POINTS SECONDARY RUNNERS-UP - NAVIGATORS 180 POINTS SECONDARY WINNERS - PORT LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL 181 POINTS CHAMPION PRIMARY RIDER - S Kerley (PLHS), CHAMPION SECONDARY RIDER - D Lewis (Navigators) These riders were the ones that competed in every event they could and winning most of their classes. This is a new section classed for the day. All 4 of the Tumby Bay Area School girls were courteous, respectful and showed great sportsmanship to all the other riders, officials and judges and had fun riding together as a team. Monday was the first time all the girls and their mounts had ridden together. I am looking forward to watching your progress as riders and horsewomen. Thank you to your parents for attending, it was a fun day. Enjoy your journey, take note of the little things, those being your horses/ponies standing perfectly in your classes waiting for your turn, they got better and better. Remember to reward them when they do what you ask. You are part of a sport where males and females compete on equal footing. Equestrian is the only Olympic Sport where there is no men and ladies events, just the one. All of my charges both two legged and four legged did a great job, enjoyed and competed in great spirits and were very supportive of each other. Well done.

Tumby Bay & Districts OSHC & Vacation Care Term 2 Week 4

2019

As children collaborate with educators and each other, their desire to contribute to celebrations such as Mother’s Day is evident. It inspires children to think about their mum or a significant person in their life and the difference they have made. Our OSHC embeds sustainability in practice so the children’s creativity was seen on recycled plates & cups. A small purchase of

material to support the children’s ideas also saw a donation of material and zips, thank you to the community for this.

Meeting National Quality Standard —Learning Story Journals

OSHC services like all child care services go through a formal accreditation. One of the ways we support a vision for children’s learning through play and leisure is to use documentation. In OSHC their is a

great importance placed on relationships and developing and strengthening children’s talents and inter-ests.

Children learn to know, to do, to be, to live together an to transform oneself and society-UNESCO We provide time and space for children to challenge and practice their exceptional ability and skills.

Older children often run and organise games that are spontaneous as they co-operate and work with the younger children. OSHC supports children taking increasing responsibility for their own health and physical well-being. This supports Outcomes for children in the document My Time, Our Place Outcome 3– Children are supported to become strong in their social and emotional wellbeing .

Learning Story Journals We collaborate with children to plan and document their achievements and share their success with their families via their journals. We look forward to reading your views when you return your child’s journal. To families who have provided your insights & suggestions —thank you.

Welcome Indianna Letton We have seen you join in play at OSHC with other friends from Kindy.

Laurette on Leave I will be on leave from Monday 3rd June and the Responsible Person is the Team Leader on the night.
