Welcome back to what I’m sure will be another busy term.

ANZAC Day

Last Tuesday we held our ANZAC Service at school and the School Leaders, Paige and

Jack did a wonderful job hosting the service. During the holidays, some of our school

leaders represented the school at various services throughout the Hawkesbury.

2019 Semester 1 Events

Payments are now due for Semester 1 events. This is an absolute bargain and includes

the excursion this term or early next term, depending on your child’s stage. Please

make these payments or arrangements for payments by Friday.

Canteen Speciality Days

The canteen will be having a number of speciality days across the term to try and boost

sales. At the moment, the canteen is struggling. It is a wonderful service to offer our

students and it would be a shame to further reduce the days of operation. Don’t forget

to like the Canteen Facebook page and also investigate the online ordering.

Mother’s Day Stall

Thank you for supporting our P&C Mother’s Day Stall yesterday. We hope all of the gift

recipients enjoy their surprise. I would also like to wish all the Mum’s a Happy Day for

Sunday.

Dental Clinic

We had a great response to our dental clinic this week. Families will be contacted if

follow up is required.

NAPLAN

NAPLAN testing will be happening next week. This is for students in Years 3 and 5.

Further information for parents is included in this newsletter.

Colour Run

It was very sad for all involved that our Colour Run was postponed last Friday, but at

least the students get another day of mufti and extra time to collect sponsors. Fingers crossed for a sunny day this Friday.

Sporting Achievements

Last term we had a number of students representing the Hawkesbury in various sports. Alexis was part of the Girls Soccer

Team and had a great day at Valentine Park. They won a game, had a draw and lost 2 games. Nicholas was in the Boys

Soccer Team and he also had a great day. They had 2 wins and a loss and made it through to the semi finals. Nick also

made it through to the Sydney West trials. Brodie played in the

Hawkesbury Rugby League Team. They had 1 win, a draw and some

losses. Brodie said it was a really tough and hard day and came away

a little sore. Jayden is still waiting to hear about his cricket selection.

Congratulations again to all of you on your representative

achievements.

Term 2 is always busy, so keep checking Facebook and Class Dojo for

regular updates and possible changes. Lisa Crawford

Mindfulness Program

This Friday I will be commencing a 6 week program of mindfulness practices for students and teachers from Kindergarten to Year 5.

I’ve had extensive experience teaching relaxation exercises, breathing techniques and meditation to both students and adults over my many years as a teacher. I am very mindful of differing beliefs and expectations so the program takes this into consideration.

I am incorporating The Smiling Mind program, endorsed by many well known sporting and professional bodies including Cricket Australia. The free Smiling Mind app is available to download if you are interested to see what the program entails.

I am also a passionate believer in ‘bringing the outside in and the inside out’ so the program will include nature elements where possible. I look forward to working with Hobartville students to help them uncover tools they can utilise to relax, strengthen resilience, relieve stress and rebalance emotional overwhelm.

Thank you

Ms Stalley (Stage 3 teacher at Hobartville PS)
