Regards, Penny Weily Principal Dear Bradshaw Families, As Week 7 draws to a close we at Bradshaw are celebrang the vast and varied opportunies that are available to students beyond the classroom. Students have excelled in their parcipaon and presentaons in the Centralian Eisteddfod. Dancers, singers, prepared readings, drama and recitals have all been highlights for our Bradshaw students. We have won trophies, been Highly Commended and have generally ‘put our best foot forward’ every me a Bradshaw student has appeared on the stage. Well done to everyone who took this opportunity seriously and demonstrated great responsibility with your rehearsals to ensure you were at your peak, and in true Bradshaw style the way everyone worked and learned together has been truly inspiraonal. A massive thank you to all teachers, parents, nanas, grandads and other family members who have supported our students in their endeavors. A special thanks goes out to Miss Bec Hewi for all of her hard work in organising Bradshaw’s parcipaon in the Eisteddfod. Going over and above to ensure our students get maximum learning opportunies is a representave characterisc of our staff at Bradshaw. Another amazing opportunity for students at Bradshaw at the moment is the Year 6 Camp to Uluru. Students have represented Bradshaw with pride and have really challenged themselves to step outside their comfort zone. They have come together as a cohesive unit and engaged in very unique experiences. They have done some paper making, set up their own campsite, gone on a camel ride and walked around the base of Uluru. Thanks to families and staff for valuing this opportunity for students to grow and develop into the leaders of tomorrow. Mr David Williams is working with a group of students to enter the Robocup compeon. Students must work together to make and program their robots to compete in movement and dance compeons. 21st Century challenges for 21st century kids! We will all look forward to hearing about how they go.
