PBL Focus:

Respect Use equipment

as intended.

Welcome to Week 9.

PBL Focus for the Week: Respect – Use equipment as intended. The end of term has arrived quickly! Even with holidays looming, it is important to remember to respect the property of ourselves and others and always use equipment as intended.

It is pleasing to note that 99% of the school do the right thing in terms of technology in the classroom. For those that are not doing the right work when requested, it is pleasing to note that all Cyber Activity is recorded. On closer inspection, we can see if a student has been studiously working on their assignment or playing “FORTNIGHT” on the screen.

Book Week: This week is “Book Week”. The library looks amazing and is a credit to Mrs Abulencia, and her volunteers. Tomorrow, we will be dressing up with our costumes with the theme - Old Worlds, New Worlds and Other Worlds. Each class will be judged on their costumes, with the best dressed class (most participation)

rewarded.

Parent Teacher Interviews: Next week is Parent-Teacher interviews. Make sure you are booked in and remember, if you require some extra time, book a double interview. Please ensure you are on time with your appointments and conclude the session at the change over time to ensure continuity.

Attendance: Congratulations to the Year 9/10 class who topped the class attendance last week at 100%. Our goal is 92% for the year and hopefully, we will achieve it. Just remember that Every Day Counts!

Write That Essay (WTE): Ms Joce O’Brien from “Write That Essay” came last week to continue on with our progress in writing and sentence structure with our students. The sessions were very successful—try asking your child what they learnt.

Ms Julie Anne Brennan: Miss Brennan, one of the Reading Centre Teachers from the Centre for Learning and Wellbeing in Roma will be here today and

Continuation of Principal’s Notes

tomorrow to professionally develop staff in the skills of teaching reading. During our conversations, Mrs Williams, our resident expert, and I discussed with Miss Brennan and Mr Tucker what is the right work for the school and how we get that done. What is the way forward for our students in terms of ensuring they are reaching potential, academically. Reading is one of our most important teaching skills and any assistance that improves the quality of teaching pedagogy in this area is gratefully accepted.

Resilience: There were some wonderful examples of Resilience demonstrated at the Paralympics during the last fortnight. These athletes personify the word Resilience with their mental and physical toughness. I was especially proud to be an “Aussie” on Sunday when Australians won Gold in the Wheelchair marathon and Silver in the Vision Impaired Marathon. Hopefully, some of the sports men and women will be taken on by the “Big Companies” as ambassadors and we will get to meet them personally.

Beef in the Buffel Ball: There are still a few tickets left for the Beef and the Buffel Ball this Saturday, 11th September. Tickets available through Try Booking - www.trybooking.com/BSQBU. It is an event not to be missed and a great way to support our P&C and school community.

Celebrations of Success: Congratulations to Year 9 and 10 who had 100% attendance last week.

Student of the Week: Memphis – Relationships Celebration of Success- Mrs Abulencia – Responsibility Sportsperson of the Week – Caleb - Excellent Goal Kicking

Century Snippets - A recount of Teaching in Injune by Ivy Girle

“I commenced duties at the Injune State School as an assistant teacher on the 11th of March 1946. The school was a rectangular wooden building consisting of two classrooms with a porch on the eastern side. A small gate at the northern boundary gave access. You proceeded between the bottletrees to the middle set of stairs leading up to the school. A folding door between the two classrooms assured good cross ventilation. Uncovered hardwood floors, two blackboards, a wooden press (cupboard) and simple furniture was considered ample equipment. Teachers had a chair and a table, but they rarely had time to sit down. The students had long wooden forms (bench seats) to sit on and a long wooden desk on which to work. These desks were equipped with slots to store the students’ slates and a hole to carry the ink bottle.”
