TAKARI PRIMARY SCHOOL RICKMAN ST BALCATTA WA 6021 PH 9349 5607 FAX 9345 1660 www.takarips.wa.edu.au PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE: This year, the P&C have made a commitment to start upgrading the Joel Park and nature play areas. A number of playground equipment suppliers have been out to the school to discuss ideas and options for the upgrade. Due to the cost, the upgrade is being planned in stages over a number of years. The P&C is about to announce stage one of the Joel Park upgrade, which will include new equipment that will prove very popular at recess and lunch times. Look out for the big announcement in the next newsletter. If you have the opportunity to assist the P&C in any way, please make sure you do. They are always looking for help and new members, and you know that all funds they raise go straight back into the school. There is always something wonderful happening at Takari. The National Tree Day, where all classes assisted in planting trees around the school, and the development of the K/PP sustainability garden, where K and PP students have planted vegetables and flowers, are two recent examples. It was therefore very disappointing to return to school on Monday and see trees, vegetables and flowers ripped up and left on the ground. The children were devastated. This senseless destruction is something we don’t want to see at Takari. It is good that the community have access to our grounds after hours and on the weekends, but we all need to look after our school. If you see anyone doing the wrong thing after hours, please report them to School Watch (contact details on the back of every newsletter) or the police. Or you can report them to the front office. Please help us look after our school. David Tennant LAST WEEK’S ASSEMBLY PERFORMERS: Mrs Campione recently conducted mini class talent shows during her music specialist lessons. She was so impressed with the performances, she arranged for some of the students to provide the entertainment at the last assembly. Performing in front of the whole school is a lot harder than performing in front of your peers, and the selected students were very brave for showing us their talents. Hayley G & Nicholas S performed a guitar duet Olivia B performed 'Roar' by Katy Perry Sophie S performed 'Stay' by Alessia Cara Kya C & Faith P performed 'Whip Nae Nae' by Silento Allegra M performed ‘Can't Stop the Feeling' by Justin Timberlake Alexys H performed ‘Pretty Girl' by Haschak Sisters Annabelle B performed 'L-O-V-E' by Nat King Cole GETTING TO SCHOOL TOO EARLY?: Some students are arriving at school too early (some before 8.00am!).
