Principal’s Report

Happy Holidays to all families from the

staff at Lane Cove West Public School!

Happy Holidays

As this is the last Chatters for the year, I wanted to take

the opportunity on behalf of all the staff of our school to

wish all our families a lovely Christmas time with family

and friends, a relaxing and safe holiday break and

wishing everyone happiness and success for the 2019

year.

Staff will be returning to school on Tuesday 29 January

for our first Staff Development Day of the year with

Corwin University on ‘Building and Developing Visible

Learners’. Students Years 1-6 return on Wednesday 30

January. Students w ill return to their 2018 class

for Wednesday and Thursday 31 January so new

enrolments can be processed and allocated into 2019

classes.

Wednesday 30 January

2018 Kindergarten students will meet on the silver seats in front of OOSH where they will be met

by teachers and taken to a classroom for the two days. Years 1-5, have been allocated classrooms

as well.

The map on the following page shows classroom allocation for the first day back.

See our ‘Principal for a Day’

report on page 3!

4M is in the library with Abby.

5T will be split between 5A and 5K

We aim to have all students in their 2019 classes by Friday 1 February at the latest.

Classes 2019 – Increase in Student Numbers

On anticipated numbers to date, we expect to increase from 579 at the commencement of 2018 to

613 at the beginning of next year. This growth will impact our Kindergarten 2019 classes as we

expect to form five Kindergarten classes. As a result, we are eligible for an additional classroom

teacher position and this vacancy has been submitted to Human Resources. We anticipate to have a

new graduate appointed.

This also means that as Human Resources will fill the classroom teacher position through a central

appointment, we will be able to complete the open merit selection process for the Librarian vacancy

early in 2019.

communicated to parents in our Semester 2 reports which will be sent home on Friday 14

caregivers and the school.

Outdoor Blinds – Hall COLA

The outdoor blinds were installed last Saturday and look fabulous. We will use the blinds during the

K-2 Presentation Day and Christmas Concert, Year 6 Farewell and Years 3-6 Presentation Day.

Thank you to Ole Lanfear who worked with me on this project and for all her input in contacting and

following through with companies who quoted for the project.

Our Year 6 students have

voted on names for the

six koi fish that reside in

our new aquaponics

system in our Sustainable

Garden. They have been

named: Sushi, N’Chips,

Spongebob, Bubba, Basil

and Phil. Which one is

which? We need to wait

until they get a little

bigger to connect the

names to a fish!

Ethics Teachers Wanted for 2019

Primary Ethics provides the opportunity for NSW public primary

school students who don’t attend scripture classes (SRE) to

participate in philosophical ethics classes. Classes are on

Tuesdays mornings for 30 minutes and teach children how to

approach ethical issues and develop their capacity for considered

moral judgement, which will enable them to respond more

thoughtfully to many of the problems and issues they will face in

their lives.

Volunteer Ethics Teachers are trained to deliver age-appropriate curriculum every week and to use the accompanying learning and teaching materials.

For more information, please contact ethics coordinator Tim Butcher on 0413 490 328 or at [email protected]

First Lego League State Finals On Saturday 24 November, Mrs Lee, Mr Campbell, ten robotics students and their parents had a

very early start as they set off for Wollongong to compete in the FIRST Lego League State Finals.

Competing against teams from across New South Wales, the day was a fantastic opportunity for

students to meet other robotics teams and to be inspired by the next level of competition, with

some amazing projects, Lego attachments and programming on display. A huge thank you to

Toby L, Melanie T and the Lu family for assisting with driving students to the competition and

supporting them on the day.

K-2 Art Club

K-2 Art Club students are proud to present their Sakura blossom inspired art work with all parents, families and community members. Students used a range of techniques to create this beautiful artwork, such as blowing Chinese ink with straws, painting with cotton buds and cutting and pasting. Everyone also accepted the challenge of writing their Chinese names with complicated lines. What persistent and open-minded learners we have here at LCWPS! Well done!

Robotics Excursion

Escorted by our STEM teachers, Mrs Silipo and Mrs Lee, Year 6 robotics students were given the

wonderful opportunity last Monday to take a behind the scenes tour of Sydney University’s

Australian Centre for Field Robotics. Students enjoyed learning about a variety of land, air and

underwater robots and were inspired to see where further studies in robotics could take them. A

special thanks to two parents of our school community for making the visit possible: Dr Stuart

Wishart, who co-ordinated the visit and helped drive students on the day, and Dr David

Johnson, who hosted our visit.
