We are Safe We are Respectful We are Focused ELERMORE ENDEAVOUR Term 4 Week 6 17th November 2017 Principals Report I would like to say a very big thank you to our Kindergarten staff, Mrs Tarrant, Mrs Williams and Ms McInnes, for organising and delivering such a wonderful Kinder Orientation program. The support of our dedicated office administrative team is also very much appreciated. I am excited to announce that next week, the Start Smart Commonwealth Bank program is coming to our school on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to present lessons to all of our K-6 students. The Start Smart program changes the way young people learn about money by making money management interactive, engaging and fun. Start Smart equips students with the confidence and competence to make smart decisions about money. Friday 17th November 2017 was the third and final 2018 Kinder orientation. The orientation sessions were a great success and provided teachers and children alike, the opportunity to get to know each other. A special mention to EVPS year 5 students, who were mature and respectful role models for our 2018 Kinder students during our second and third orientations. I am sure the year 5 ‘buddies’ are looking forward to continuing the responsibility of mentoring a Kinder buddy in 2018, just as much as their little buddies are looking forward to their care and support as they begin Kindergarten. Once again, we welcome our 2018 Kinder students and their families to our EVPS community and look forward to seeing you soon! Positive Behaviour for Learning We are learning about how to be tolerant and accepting.
