WEEK 1 TERM 1 Friday 8th February 2019

PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE

I hope everyone had a restful holiday and enjoyed some

family time over the Christmas break.

Although the weather was a bit extreme, it was nice to

have a relaxed routine and not be tied to the clock!

Students have had a fantastic start to the 2019 school

year and staff are excited for the year ahead.

NEW STUDENTS

We are very excited to welcome two new Kindergarten

students to the NPS family. Michael and Tillan did

transition with us in Term 4 last year and have settled in

well to their new school routines.

2019 STAFFING

This year we welcome two new staff members to the

team:

Ms Jayne Miller will be teaching Primary HSIE and

Science and teaching K-6 Creative Arts on Thursdays.

Jayne has extensive teaching experience in both NSW

and the Northern Territory and was keen to stay in the

area after teaching in Lake Cargelligo last semester. We

look forward to utilising her Creative Arts expertise in

particular!

Mrs Cheryl McFadyen will be working in the office on

Wednesdays, joining us as a School Administrative

Officer. Cheryl will be focusing on school

communications and will be working on the newsletter,

school website and Facebook page, and supporting Mrs

Castle and myself in with other administrative tasks.

Cheryl has worked with us over the years on a casual

basis and brings with her a good knowledge of our

finance system from previous employment.

Mrs Castle, Miss J and Miss D will continue in their

temporary roles for the 2019 school year. Anita is

continuing as our General Assistant on a casual basis

until the permanent position is filled.

SCHOOL UNIFORMS

Just a reminder that there was a slight change to the

school uniform at the end of

last year to reflect the

changes to the departments

policies. Our green polo

shirts which were originally

our sports shirts are now

worn every day. Shirts can be

ordered through Wendy’s

Embroidery in West Wyalong

or through the school.

SAFER INTERNET DAY

Primary students

participated in a

virtual classroom

session on Thursday

morning as part of

Safer Internet Day.

They learnt about the personal and social capabilities

that are important for creating positive online

environments and explored communicating with

respect, developing resilience, using reasoning and

choosing to act responsibly.

NOTES SENT HOME THIS WEEK

General Permissions—please return ASAP so we
