Have a great week Dan Murtas
Hello everyone, It’s week 9 and there are great initiatives happening at KSPS! It has been excellent to see the number of parents taking the opportunity to take the time to participate in a personalised learning plan meeting for their children. From my observations, parent and teacher feedback, the meetings have been very productive as students have a PLP where their new learning goals and strategies are outlined to assist student improvement. This time of year we celebrate student success and many classes have already done this in a culminating event. This Thursday the Care Disco will also be held for the winning House Team. Well done Buchanan, you are the winners this term!
School Parking
A reminder to all parents/ visitors the staff car park is to be used by STAFF ONLY. Staff are finding that they have no space to park as spaces are being taken up by non- staff members. This also goes for the disabled car space as it is designated for disabled personnel only. It is encouraged that drop offs are performed at the ‘Kiss and Go’ zone to avoid any safety issues. I welcome your support with this.
Luke Kelly Cup This Friday, the Katherine South Rugby League Team will be travelling to the Sport and Rec Oval to play in the Luke Kelly Cup competition. 17 students from years 5 and 6 have been selected to form the KSPS team

Term 1 Week 9 Wednesday the 25th of March
and have been training for the competition this Friday. As the competition involves tackling/heavy contact, permission notes have been sent home with the students for them to be able to participate. This is an inaugural competition and more have been scheduled for next term. SRC to squash bullying at KSPS Our Student Representative Council have been working hard to implement strategies to ‘squash’ bullying at our school. This has been identified as a main focus for the SRC and they have been very proactive to this point to spread the word among their peers. Last Friday our SRC assisted in running our Harmony Hay assembly that coincided with the National Day of Action Against Bullying. It has been great to see students being proactive in the playground using their strategies to combat and prevent bullying. I look forward to more great work being done around this from our SRC. Reminders for upcoming events
The KSPS Swimming
Carnival will be held on Thursday the 2nd of April, notes have been sent home with students to inform you of the event and for student permission to travel to the town pool. It would be great if parents could assist on the day. Please contact the front office if you are able to help out.

They were Georgia McWhirter, Charlie McWhirter, Jo Dobson, Erin Dahl, Ella King, Joshua King, Ava Osmotherly and Ruby Osmotherly. Our very talented 5/6 teacher Ms Bec also competed. The swimmers did a great job and there were many personal best times. Ruby Osmotherly was awarded a bronze in the 8 year girls 50m breaststroke. Ms Bec was very successful and was awarded Open Champion. Well done to all these swimmers.
