PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

PFC DISCO The Disco on Wednesday was a great success and students from all levels participated with enthusiasm and vast amounts of energy. A number of teachers and parents also joined in the fun! Many thanks to our hardworking parents from the PFC and particularly to Claire Bray whose great organisation ensured that it was a wonderful event for all. We also, once again, want to thank our sponsors from the eview group. WORLD TEACHERS DAY Today is World Teachers Day – I want to take this opportunity to congratulate all of our teachers on their hard work and commitment to providing an excellent teaching and learning program for your children at LPPS. BYOD PROGRAM The Grade 3 BYOD Parent information session on Wednesday evening provided our parents with an overview of our program. Information has been sent home regarding the purchasing of the device with Edunet. If any Grade 3 parent requires assistance or further information please contact Richard Barren. SEMESTER 2 REPORTING In regards to semester 2 reports, no hard copies of your child’s report will be sent home. They will be made available through the Sentral parent portal. If you have not set up your portal account and require support with this, please contact Richard Barren. Further details will be provided later in the term regarding how to access your child’s report in the portal.

CAR PARKING & SAFETY

Earlier this week we sent a DOJO in relation to our car parking and would like to reinforce the information. There are a growing number of families entering the staff/swimming carpark to drop off and pickup students at school, with a few recent near miss incidents reported.

As we are unable to safely provide onsite carpark access to families of all 719 students at the school, the carpark is restricted to use of school staff and swimming

patrons scheduled for swimming immediately before or after school.

The school appreciates the convenience and perceived safety benefits of dropping students directly in the carpark, however cars double parking, manoeuvering

tight turns within the carpark, and exiting via the entry driveway during peak arrival times, are behaviours that place our students and other pedestrians at risk.

We ask that you please make use of the kiss and go area when dropping off children, for their safety and that of other students and thank you for your support.

Up against a strong team, the girls narrowly lost to Mt Eliza Primary School. Thank you to Darren Paxton (Coach) and Gareth Wyatt (assistant coach) for transporting and coaching the girls and Caroline Molloy for scoring throughout the day. On Wednesday, the same team played in the Northern Peninsula Divisional competition. In the first game, playing Rowellyn Park Primary School the girls had a close match, but managed to win by 10 points. They “hit their straps” in their second match, easily accounting for Ballam Park Primary School. The girls will now play in the Regional finals next Thursday. We wish them all the best. Once again, a big thank you to Darren and Gareth who transported and supported the girls at the Divisional finals, and Ms Cincurak for coaching the girls.
