PRINCIPAL’S COMMENTS
2nd September2016 Issue 14
Don’t forget our SunSmart Policy. Hats to be worn during
Terms 1 and 4.
Wednesday morning saw some
very excited children arrive at
school packed and ready to leave
on their camp. The children were
accompanied by Mr Paris, Mr.
Turner, Mrs Hebing and Mrs.
Nikolic. The Grades 3 /4
children arrived safely at Mill
Valley Ranch in Tynong North
and have settled in and are
having a great time. I travelled to
Tynong North to visit the Grade 3
and 4 campers yesterday and
found them all enjoying a
wonderful camp experience in a
very beautiful and calm country
area. Students were doing craft
activities, cooking damper and
kayaking on the small dam they
have on the property. Everyone
was safe, happy and enjoying
themselves. The teachers were a
little tired but having a great
time. Thank you to Mr. Paris,
Mr. Turner, Mrs. Hebing and
Mrs. Nikolic for going on the
camp and ensuring everyone was
enjoying the experience.
Just a reminder that next Friday
the 9th September is a
Curriculum Day and children are
not required at school. Teachers
will be working with a consultant
to revisit our values and looking
at where Movelle will be heading
in future years. We have already
had input from students and
School Council and would
welcome any ideas from our
wider community on the
following four questions.
What is Movelle known for?
What is important about
Movelle’s past?
What needs to be taken into the
future?
Is there anything we need to
leave behind?
Miss Carmen will be on LSL from
the 4th Sept and returning 3rd
Oct. We hope you have a relaxing
and enjoyable holiday . We all
look forward in seeing you on the
first day of Term 4 .

Bill Hunt Principal
The Fundraising committee would
like to say a big thank you to all the
Movelle School Community for the
wonderful support we received in the
Chocolate Drive. Nearly all unsold boxes have been
returned and we are near to making $2500.00 profit.
Families that sold 3 boxes or more were
acknowledged at last week’s assembly and
presentations were made to Nataleigh Garwood and
Eleka Shu for selling 7 and 6 boxes and Chloe Murawi
Hathaway and Alex Eddy for selling 4 boxes. This
money will go towards the upgrade of the P-2
playground.
A new slide will be put in over the school holidays.
Rehearsals are continuing for our whole school
production of “The Dream Machine” and all the
students are doing a fantastic job! Last week, the
whole school came together to rehearse the song
we are singing for the finale. During this session,
the students were very excited and their singing
was amazing!
This week in assembly, we also watched two
performances from the musical. In the first
performance, the Prep/1s performed the song
‘I Have A Dream’ which they have been
practising in their classrooms with Mrs Hancock
and Mrs Capruciu, as well as in Performing Arts
with Miss S. In the second performance, the main
cast acted out the first two scenes which they
have been working on with Mr Turner. Both the
performances were fantastic and really showed
how much hard work and dedication both the
staff and students are putting in to ensure that
the production is ready to go for opening night.
You may have noticed that the billboards
promoting the production have been installed at
the front of the school and in the parent’s car
park. If you haven’t seen them yet, please make
sure you have a look and let your family and
friends know about ‘The Dream Machine’.
We’d also like to thank Barry Plant Real Estate
Agents in St Albans for providing us with the
billboards again this year.
FATHERS DAY
We have just had this timely
reminder from the Sunsmart
Council.You may have already
noticed Victoria’s UV levels are
steadily rising so it’s time to dust off that sun
protection gear and get into full SunSmart mode!
The weather may still be cold and grey some days but
please don’t be fooled. It’s the UV that can damage
our skin and eyes. We can’t see or feel UV but at this
time of year it starts to increase in intensity.
During the sun protection times please remember to:
1. Slip on covering clothing
2. Slop on SPF 30 (or higher) broad-spectrum,
water-resistant sunscreen
3. Slap on a wide brimmed hat
4. Seek shade
5. Slide on some wrap-around sunglasses
Just a reminder that in Term 4 all children must wear
a hat at recess and lunchtimes.
