St Joseph’s Primary School Gayndah Newsletter Date Wednesday 1 March 2017 Principal’s Letter to Parents 2017 Term One Week Six Hi Everyone In the coming weeks Brooke, Emily, Isla and myself will be welcoming a new bundle of joy into our lives. It will be at this time that I will be taking leave to help with all things home and family. By my own admission, I did this very poorly when Emily arrived so one of my goals for 2017 is to put the needs of my family first. I will be taking leave from March the 6th through to the end of the term. Mr Wren will be moving into an acting APRE role whilst Mrs Glisson will act as principal during this time. In place of Mr Wren, I have invited Mrs Claire Carlaw to lead the 1/2 class full time through the remainder of Term 1. Mrs Holden will fulfil the Art Teacher role during this time. If for any reason you would like to ask any questions or speak to me regarding this move please contact me through the school office. I sincerely appreciate your support with this adjustment and if you see me around the grounds during this time, please feel free to tell me to rack off! What an absolute cracking afternoon we shared yesterday with the ‘Race for the Golden Pancake’. I absolutely love afternoons such as these where parents and students alike share in the true sense of community around the grounds. I have shared a few happy snaps below from the afternoon and keep your eyes out for some footage from the afternoon online and on our Facebook page. At the back end of last week you may have seen an advertisement on our Facebook page, advertising that in Term 2 we are lucky enough to have ‘Holt Bolt’ team visiting our school. The ‘Holt Bolt’ initiative will see students participate in a range of obstacle course activities that involve climbing, crawling, sliding, weaving, getting wet and a range of other activities related to health and fitness. Such activities are a real motivator for students and the timing of the visit was nominated so as to celebrate the end of first semester and to acknowledge all of the hard work that our students put into their learning. Parents are welcome to join us and further details will be released closer to the date. Thank you to all of the parents who were able to help with the float construction on Saturday. A great deal of progress was made on the morning with our OLD, GOLD and VERY BOLD ARK. With several events on in town this weekend we will postpone the planned working bee until later in the term. Cheers Ben

Principal’s Letter to

2017 Term One
Week Six
Hi Everyone
In the coming weeks Brooke, Emily, Isla and myself will be welcoming a new bundle of joy into our lives. It will be at
this time that I will be taking leave to help with all things home and family. By my own admission, I did this very
poorly when Emily arrived so one of my goals for 2017 is to put the needs of my family first. I will be taking leave
from March the 6th through to the end of the term.
Mr Wren will be moving into an acting APRE role whilst Mrs Glisson will act as principal during this time. In place of
Mr Wren, I have invited Mrs Claire Carlaw to lead the 1/2 class full time through the remainder of Term 1. Mrs Holden
will fulfil the Art Teacher role during this time. If for any reason you would like to ask any questions or speak to me
regarding this move please contact me through the school office.
I sincerely appreciate your support with this adjustment and if you see me around the grounds during this time, please
feel free to tell me to rack off!
What an absolute cracking afternoon we shared yesterday with the ‘Race for the Golden Pancake’. I absolutely love
afternoons such as these where parents and students alike share in the true sense of community around the grounds. I
have shared a few happy snaps below from the afternoon and keep your eyes out for some footage from the afternoon
online and on our Facebook page.
At the back end of last week you may have seen an advertisement on our Facebook page,
advertising that in Term 2 we are lucky enough to have ‘Holt Bolt’ team visiting our
school. The ‘Holt Bolt’ initiative will see students participate in a range of obstacle course
activities that involve climbing, crawling, sliding, weaving, getting wet and a range of
other activities related to health and fitness. Such activities are a real motivator for students
and the timing of the visit was nominated so as to celebrate the end of first semester and to
acknowledge all of the hard work that our students put into their learning. Parents are
welcome to join us and further details will be released closer to the date.
Thank you to all of the parents who were able to help with the float construction on Saturday. A great deal of progress
was made on the morning with our OLD, GOLD and VERY BOLD ARK. With several events on in town this weekend
we will postpone the planned working bee until later in the term.
