PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE TRAFFIC UPDATES At the start of this term, all students who are picked up in the afternoons at the Telopea Kiss and Ride zone have been waiting inside the school gates. This has been a huge success in keeping the students safe. Thank you for your cooperation. Please refer to the three attachments for further updated traffic information. OPERA HOUSE CHOIR Congratulations to the stage 3 Opera House Choir group who performed at the Opera House on Monday 24 September. It was my great pleasure to witness a brilliant concert, full of amazing performances and beautiful singing. Well done to the students for their dedication through the year; attending rehearsals and learning songs. A huge thank you to Mr Kokoris and Ms De Sousa for their tireless efforts and preparation. IT’S TIME TO ENROL FOR 2019 If you have not done so already, it is time to enrol your child for Kindergarten 2019. We have commenced interviews for all ‘in area’ and ‘out of area’ students. Spaces are LIMITED for ‘out of area’ enrolments for 2019, so please let friends, neighbours and relatives know to complete enrolment documentation immediately to be considered. If you live ‘out of area’, but have siblings at our school already, you must complete the ‘out of area’ paperwork to be accepted for enrolment in 2019. Siblings have high consideration but the paperwork must be in order. Please see the office for further details.

ENROL NOW! Ms Monica Cidem R/Principal

SRC Fundraiser for Farmers Farmers in New South Wales and Queensland are currently experiencing the worst drought in living memory. Strathfield South Student Representative Council have decided to help our famers by raising vital funds to support Australian farming families and their stock. On Thursday 1 November 2018, we are asking students to show their support by dressing up as a farmer or farm animal for a gold coin donation to go towards the drought relief. All funds raised will be donated to Buy a Bale. If you would like more information or would like to donate more to the cause you can visit the following website: https://www.buyabale.com.au/ SRC Team

KidsMatter BounceBack! Enjoying a laugh with others is a unique human bond that helps us connect with others. Finding something funny about a difficult situation can also help us to feel more hopeful. Humour helps us to gain a sense of perspective on our problems, because it can throw a little light on an otherwise dark situation. It allows us to release the tension created by strong and uncomfortable feelings such as sadness, disappointment, anxiety and anger. Having a laugh also helps us to stay healthy and well because of the changes that laughter creates in our bodies. Key messages to communicate to your child about humour

Humour helps us to stay healthy. Laughter helps our body to fight disease and illness. Humour is like exercise for our mind and our feelings.

Humour can help you to feel better. Having a laugh and finding the funny side of a situation can help you feel a little bit better when you are feeling unhappy, sad or worried, or when things are difficult.

2

You can use laughter and humour to help someone else feel a little bit better.

You can cheer someone up when they have a problem, or they are feeling sad or worried, by being funny in a nice gentle way. Stop doing it if they do not like it.

Humour should not be used to pretend that you do not feel sad or worried.

Even though laughter can help you feel better when you have a problem, you still need to try to solve the problem, or deal with the unhappy feeling. Laughter does not make problems go away. It just help you to cope with them a little better.

Humour should not be used to hurt someone’s feelings.

It is unkind to laugh at someone else’s problems or bad luck, or make fun of the way another person look, thinks, speaks or acts. CONGRATULATIONS to Miss Patty 2018 Smith Medallist The 2018 Smith Medal is awarded to the best player in the Women's Touch Football Premier League division, based on a 3-2-1 count decided by selectors in each round of competition. The Smith Medal is named in honour of legend and hall of famer Karen Smith, introduced in 2002. It’s a best and fairest for a whole season, similar to the Brownlow AFL medal and the Dally M NRL award. A really big deal! We are so proud of Miss Patty, what a wonderful role model for our students! Miss Patty is a home-grown Western Suburbs Magpie having also represented both New South Wales and Australia. She also had success this year with the Women’s West Tigers inaugural NRL Touch Premiership team. “It has been such a massive year for me and I am so humbled to have received an award like this… I never in a million years thought I would ever receive such a distinguished honour….I was lucky enough to represent the West Tigers in the inaugural NRL Touch Football Premiership and I am so excited to see what next year will bring given the game’s expansion,” Miss Patty said. Next big competition? The World Cup in Kuala Lumpur 2019. Let’s cross our fingers Miss Patty is selected to represent Australia!

Uniform Shop There has been a slight increase of prices in some of the uniform items. Also the Skort (shorts that look like a skirt) has arrived for girls and very soon the new school hat will be available. Please find the new price list in the attachments.

Year 6 Farewell The Year 6 Farewell dinner will be on Monday night, 17 December 2018. There are many great ways for YOU to be involved.

Primary Proms Concert 2018 Kakadu Concert 20.9.18 Thirty Stage 2 students shared their passion for music with 450 students from 16 schools, singing in the stunning 2018 Primary Proms Kakadu Concert at the Sydney Town Hall. Our students demonstrated their commitment by learning the 11 song repertoire, attending weekly lunch rehearsals and preliminary rehearsal days throughout the year. It was well worth it because we were lucky enough to be representing SSPS right on centre stage! Thank you for the amazing support from our parents and families and hats off to our amazing performers. Miss Y Lee & Miss T Ta Stage 2 Choir Teachers.

Dear Parents,

Strathfield Council has been a supporter of Children’s Week for many years. In honour of this, Strathfield Council would like to join our school community in celebrating Children’s Week 2018.

The theme for Children’s Week is ‘Children’s views and opinions are respected. They have the right to express those views freely in all matters affecting the child and the right to be heard’.

This year Strathfield Council will be running a competition for children aged 10-12 years old. Children taking part in the competition will need to write a two minute speech on the environment choosing from two options below:

1. What can we do to help? 2. Plastics – Why are they a problem?

Children are to submit their speech to Strathfield Council by email to the following address: council@strathfield.nsw.gov.au where a panel will judge the best speech from each school.

The winner will be given a prize and asked to present their speech at a school assembly. A council member will be present to hear this speech and congratulate them on the day.

Directions In Music Band Expo The Band Expo will be open to all Year 3 and Year 2 students in Week 4 from 2pm in the Hall. Students will be provided with all the information needed to join the band next year!

Stage 3 Opera House and The Rocks Tour

Last week Stage 3 embarked on an exciting adventure to tour the Sydney Opera House and The Rocks. Students enjoyed a behind the scenes tour of the different theatres in the Opera House, learning about the construction, and many different types of entertainment offered within its sails. Some students were even lucky enough to see the Sydney Symphony Orchestra practising for an upcoming concert. We learnt about life in the Rocks after the first fleet arrived, and observed and discussed some of the changes that have occurred to the shoreline and the Sydney Tank Stream. Despite the gloomy weather, students had a fantastic day and should be commended on their impeccable behaviour and conduct, with some tour guides even saying “This school has been such a pleasure to tour with, please pass on our many thanks back at school”. Well done Stage 3! Stage 3 Teachers and Supporting Staff
