Monday 21st March 2016 Term 1 Week 9 MORGIE NEWS Telephone: 08 8087 5155 Principal: Mr Chisholm Bloch Fax: 08 8087 3729 Email: [email protected]Webpage: www.morganst-p.schools.nsw.edu.au Important Dates Thursday 24th March K-6 Easter Hat Parade/Assembly 11.30am Friday 8th April Last Day of Term 1 Tuesday 26th April Staff Development Day Wednesday 27th April Students return First Day of Term 2 EASTER RAFFLE From the Principal Easter raffle tickets are on sale every morning in both playgrounds before school. Raffles will be drawn at the Easter hat assembly on Thursday. Also please remember all students will need an Easter hat for the parade on Thursday 24th March 2016. Remember, it is not a mufti day. Students wear their school uniform. Classes will resume as normal after the picnic lunch on the oval Thank you to all our wonderful families that have donated our raffle prizes. Some of our Year 2, 3 & 4 boys have been spending some time with Mr Fennessy working on some hands on activities to keep them busy at lunchtime. The boys enjoy the opportunity to be included in this group and are working hard in their classroom’s in order to be able to participate. They are learning some practical skills as well as cooperating with others. Well done, boys! Hopefully the Easter break brings all sorts of pleasures for our families. If you are travelling away please make it a safe journey, if staying - have a restful break. The excitement is building at MSPS as we get close to our annual Easter Hat Parade. It does make me wonder who started this tradition across NSW Schools so many years ago. Every school seems to continue the tradition along with the Easter egg raffle. I know from last year Morgie students love it too. Hope to see parents here for the parade and assembly on Thursday at 11.30am Our Annual School Reporting period has come again and as such I ask that parents and community members please take a look at and complete a Community Satisfaction Survey which can be found at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FR6XG6S (Cut and Paste into browser or type it directly in) As it is the first electronic survey I have attempted to build I hope it all works - it seemed to for me. The survey will remain open until 5 pm on April 1 so there is plenty of time to complete it. There will be paper copies of the survey available at our offices for those who wish to complete one that way. The electronic ones I hope will suit many families and we look forward to hearing your thoughts. KIDSMATTERS - the Australian Primary School Mental Health Initiative will be launched this afternoon as a training to assist children and families who may have need for support from time to time. The first module “Positive School Community” will be delivered to staff by an in school team who have been preparing the presentation for staff. Chisholm Bloch
