Dear Parents and Friends,
INTER HOUSE CARNIVALINTER HOUSE CARNIVAL
The Inter House Carnival conducted over two days last week, Tuesday for distance races, jumps and throws and Friday for races and team games, was a great success. The weather was ideal and the students demonstrated terrific sportsmanship and should be proud of their efforts. Many thanks to the large number of parents and friends who attended on the day to
support our school.
A special thank you to our hardworking P & C, school staff and the Lions Club of Ellenbrook for their ongoing support with the
provision of medals and the perpetual trophy.
Well done to all participants and to PEGASUS PEGASUS who were our
2015 winners of the Lions Club of Ellenbrook Perpetual Shield.

DATES TO REMEMBER

Remembrance Day (11 November) marks the anniversary of the armistice which ended the First World War (1914–18). Each year Australians observe one minute silence at 11AM on 11 November, in memory of those who died or suffered in all wars and armed
conflicts.
On Wednesday 11 November, our Student Leadership Team will attend Woodlake Amphitheatre to lay a wreath on behalf of the Aveley PS community at the Remembrance Day Service. Our students at school will observe the one minutes silence at

BUSHFIRE AWAREBUSHFIRE AWARE
The bushfire season is rapidly approaching. As we all like to go on holidays, visiting favourite campsites, beaches and national parks as the weather warms up, it is a timely reminder that all families develop a Bushfire
Survival Plan to prepare for the possibility of bushfire. For further information and suggestions visit www.fesa.wa.gov.au.
VALE SKATE PARKVALE SKATE PARK
Our school is currently being affected by ongoing antisocial issues at the skate park before and after school. Parents are asked to engage in conversation with their children about these issues and to take the opportunity to discuss appropriate strategies to deal with unsociable behaviour if this occurs while they are there. We would also encourage families to provide appropriate locking devices for their children’s scooters and bicycles as there have been recent incidents of theft from school. Engraving may also be helpful in identifying your child’s scooter
or bike.
DID YOU KNOW?DID YOU KNOW?
The human brain is literally a ‘work
in progress’! In the first few years of life
the brain is growing rapidly. By the time children are three years old, 90% of the brain has developed so experiences in the
early years are very important.
Loving and caring relationships with you, your family, friends, the school and school community help children develop socially, emotionally and intellectually. Play is particularly important in childhood learning. Play gives children opportunities to practise skills, communicate with others, take on challenges and solve problems in fun and enjoyable ways. Singing, playing games, talking, climbing, dancing, reading, writing, and drawing all help
the brain develop ways of thinking and learning.
Checkout the fact sheets at http://www.det.wa.edu.au/schoolsandyou/detcms/portal/ if you are you looking for more
great activities to do with your child at home.

SCHOOL NUMBERS 2016SCHOOL NUMBERS 2016
You are asked to please ring or write to us if your child will not be attending Aveley PS in 2016. It is essential that numbers are accurate to ensure precise staffing and class lists at the beginning of the school year. It also would be most helpful if you informed us of any children who may be attending in 2016 that
are not currently enrolled.
CLASS PLACEMENTS 2016CLASS PLACEMENTS 2016
If you need to bring to our attention any factors that concern your child’s placement in 2016, please write a formal letter or email Aveley.ps@education.wa.edu.au at your earliest convenience. In the main sound educational reasons will be considered as a
priority.
CHRISTMAS CAROLS CHOCHRISTMAS CAROLS CHOIRIR
It is the time again for us to begin rehearsals for our huge annual performance at the Aveley Community Carols on Saturday, 5 December. Rehearsals begin next Thursday, 5 November from 8AM to 8.30AM in the music room each week leading up to the event. All children from Kindy to year 6 who are interested need to attend all 5 rehearsals from this date as we have lots of festive fun to get
through!
WESTERN SWAMP TORTOISE STICKER EXCURSIONWESTERN SWAMP TORTOISE STICKER EXCURSION
On Tuesday this week I was thrilled to take the 6 finalists from the Western Swamp Tortoise Drain Sticker Competition we entered last year on an exciting local excursion. We were so excited to be chosen for the winning design. We went out and walked the streets applying the final drain stickers with special glue. There's some in our carpark, around the back of the school and local streets near the lake and surrounds. Keep an eye out for these fantastic designs. Please also check the school Facebook page for an album of very cool pictures from the day. Thanks to Jan from the Friends of The Western Swamp Tortoise for her assistance and guidance. It is important we take an interest in protecting our endangered fauna that can not protect
itself.
MUSIC COUNT US INMUSIC COUNT US IN
Yesterday we participated yet again in a huge nationwide event where over 550,000 Australian students all simultaneously sang the same song at the exact same time. Music Count Us In is an annual event that promotes song writing, lyric awareness and the benefits of music in education and in life. Almost 500 wonderfully pitched and rhythmically gifted Aveley students sang the song ‘Gold’ in
unison. Just amazing.
Thanks to all of the parents and friends who came along to watch and listen. We had a group of dedicated performers out the front who have spent the last few weeks rehearsing with myself at lunchtimes to lead the school. Everyone was outstanding! Check
our school Facebook page for pictures.

P & C NEWS
COMMUNITY NEWS
Hi Everyone,
Hope you have all had a good week!
Firstly this week I would like to thank all of the parents that volunteered to help with the Sausage Sizzle at this years sports carnival. Weather you helped out for an hour or the entire day it really is appreciated. You have given the P&C your own personal free time to help our school which benefits our children. Without your support as a P&C we can't raise the funds
we need to build a better school, and for that we say
As mentioned in the previous informer we have the Multicultural Open Night on Friday, 6 November on the school grounds starting at 5PM. There will be food vendors for you to buy some delicious dinner and the P&C will be selling cold drinks from the canteen in the undercover area. Bring along your picnic rugs, sit
back, relax and enjoy your dinner while been entertained by Indonesian dancing, art activities, and more. This is sure to be
the biggest event of the year.
For those children that are ordering lunches from the school canteen by dropping off their orders in the morning please be careful when dropping your order in. The canteen box is located inside the administration office (and is separate from the P&C box outside. The canteen staff don't have access to the P&C box. Therefore if your child puts their lunch
order in the wrong box it may go astray.
Save the date - Friday, 27 November is this years school disco. More details will follow in the
upcoming weeks……….
This Monday, 2 November is the P&C meeting at 6.30PM to be held in the school library. It is always nice to see new faces. So if you have never been before we would love to see you this
Monday.
Take care and have a great weekend!
