continued report from Yvonne Hutchinson

COLDS AND COUGHSThe flu season is upon us again. In helping to prevent and contain the spread of all strains of influenza and the common cold it is important to remind our children about good personal hygiene routines. Staff are reminding children about their personal hygiene needs including the appropriate use of the toilets and frequent hand washing. It is important also that anyone with a sniffle covers their nose and mouth with a tissue when they sneeze and immediately dispose of used tissues. Some teachers may request donations of tissue boxes for use within the classroom. Keeping sick children home is the best way to help them recover and reduce the spread of germs in the classroom environment.

CAR PARKING AND DROPPING OFFI have been out on the gate on Mintaro Way watching the amount of traffic created at drop off and pick up times. I am impressed by the amount of goodwill and patience demonstrated by drivers. I do want to encourage drivers to remain vigilant as children can be unpredictable and cars are constantly pulling into and away from the curb. I also encourage all children exit the car on the curb side of the car.

SCHOOL SUPERVISIONI have noticed on occasion children coming to school very early. I just want to remind all families that the school grounds are not supervised until 8:30am. We ask that children who need to be here early, because of family work commitments, are booked into before school care. The OshClub is located in the Ber building, create an account online at www.oshclub.com.au or have a chat with Jigna the coordinator on 0411 302 879.

Student Led Conferences

Dear Parents/Guardians,

The Student Led Conferences will take place on Thursday the 27th of June. Below is an outline that explains what the Student Led Conferences are and how they are conducted.

What is the Student Led Conference?Student Led Conferences are an integral part of the Primary Years Programme (PYP) helping stu-dents to take ownership and responsibility for their learning. They involve the child and the parent talking together about the learning and are not run like a traditional teacher/parent interview. We hold these conferences each June, to help students re-alise their goals and set new ones for the remain-der of the year. On Thursday, the 27th of June your child will be leading the conference with you and developing their responsibility for their learning by sharing and discussing samples of work they have chosen. Please encourage/prompt your child as they share their learning with you as we want the Student Led Conference to be successful and pur-poseful for you and your child.

What is the role of the parent?Student-led conferences enable you to gain a clear insight into the kind of work your child is doing and offers you an opportunity to discuss it with your child. Your child will be in charge of leading you through the conference. A few hints to help you before and during the con-ference:• Express positive interest and anticipation about the upcoming conference.• Be on time.• Listen and respond to your child.• Express pride in your child’s growth and prog-ress.• Be positive, offering to help in areas where im-provement is needed.• Recognise that the teacher will be in the room to facilitate and not take charge of the conference.

• Learn more about your child’s learning style and abilities.• Review your child’s previous goals and discuss new ones.• Ask questions about the portfolio samples. Some question prompts will be offered to support parents.• Comment on the learning demonstrated through the conference, providing positive feedback.

What is the role of the teacher?• To be a facilitator in the conference process.• To be an observer.• To help identify strengths and areas for improvement for your child and discuss some future goals if appropriate.• To encourage, praise and support to your child by offering prompts as needed.

What is the role of the student?• Share their own learning. • Evaluate their own progress.• Be actively involved.• Discuss and reflect on their samples of work with their parents. • Identify strengths and areas for improvement.

As part of the IB PYP assessment, the Student Led Conference represents the value of the student being at the centre of the learning process. The Student Led Conference invites students to be more verbal and take responsibility for their learning. We hope you enjoy this rewarding experience with your child.

Portfolios are sent home for viewing following the conference. Parents will have the opportunity to view the pieces of work in the portfolio over the Term 2 holidays. Portfolios will then need to be re-turned at the beginning of Term 3.

On-line bookings are open. Please make sure you book an appointment time with the classroom teacher and with any specialist areas of the curric-ulum.

Victorian Sustainability Awards Ceremony

Wow! What a fabulous day it was last Thursday for two of our staff from the Sustainability Team, Helen Takano and Jonathan Brown and two students from grade six, Phoenix and Dean.

Seabrook Primary School were nominated as finalists in the ResourceSmart Sustainability Awards Competition for 2019. Seventy three schools across Victoria registered, and our school was chosen as one of the finalist schools for the most improved ‘Campus Infrastructure and Operations’ category.

Unfortunately, we didn’t win, but we felt like winners on the day! And, we were lucky enough to meet Craig Reucassel, the host from ABC’s, ‘War on Waste’ series!

Our school began this journey to improve our sustainable practices in 2016. Since then, we have managed to establish:

• A vegetable garden that provides all-year round vegetables, which are watered by rainwater from our water tanks and sold to our school community by enthusiastic students.• A working worm farm that provides worm fertiliser to our school community.• A frog habitat created by Grade 6 students in collaboration with a Newport Indigenous Nursery volunteer.• A whole school recycling program across every classroom and staff room.• A Nude Food program that has taken off across most school classrooms.• The use of 100% recycled paper across the school.• Indigenous planting of trees and shrubs, that have attracted local biodiversity. • Bird homes that have attracted our local birdlife.• A recycling hub that offers our school community a place to recycle their old clothes.

What amazing achievements! I am proud to have been part of this program and would like to thank all the wonderful and enthusiastic students, teachers, parents and community volunteers that have supported it over the years. We could not have moved this far without you all.

Respectful Relationship

Have you ever thought about what a bystander is? Have you ever been around when someone was getting bullied? Maybe you weren’t aware. Today Olivia, Vincent, Madison, Jessica, Max and myself (Year 5) went to Truganina South Primary School with 2 teachers: Ms Treloar and Ms Mauric. We explored bystanders, and learnt about what we can do to put a stop to it. Do you stand up for people? Are you responsible or independent? These are some key traits of a leader also known as active bystander. Do you have these traits?

Joshua 5HT

Have you ever started thinking about what a bystander is? Well think no more. On Wednesday the 5th we went to West Truganina Primary School and learnt about Bystanders. The school presentation was called Respectful Relationships. Over the day, we completed ten different activities. My favourite activity was the balloon activity. In this activity we wrote different reasons that prevent us from getting involved with the bullying, teasing or fighting on balloons.

Another activity I enjoyed was watching two videos and talking about them in our groups. The first video was about a man who didn’t care about anyone or anything, the second video was about recognising your surroundings.

Max 5CM

Have you ever learnt about a bystander and what one does? A bystander is someone who witnesses a conflict. There are two different types of bystanders, an inactive bystander and an active bystander. An inactive bystander is someone who witnesses conflict and does nothing which can be very hurtful. An active bystander is someone who witnesses conflict and steps in to help the victim(s) in the conflict.

On Wednesday the 5th of June, Josh, Vincent, Madison, Max, Jessica and myself went to Truganina South Primary School accompanied by Ms Treloar and Ms Mauric. We went and learnt about bystanders and respectful relationships. We participated in activities based on problems/conflicts that are happening at school or at home. My favourite activity was a video about a person called Mr Indifferent who was a hurtful bystander at first because when he saw problems going on he just kept walking and going on with his day. But when an old lady came up to him and asked for his help to cross the road, he helped her to cross the road safely. When he went home he realised he needed to have a little bit of happiness in his life so he started to help others around him each day.

If you would like to learn more please come to one of our assemblies. We are looking forward to seeing you there!

Respectful Relationship

Responsibility. Equality. Caring. Respect. Four important needs to be an active bystander who takes action and cares for others. Do you think you own any of these qualities? On Wednesday the 5th of June 6 Grade 5 plus 2 teachers went Truganina South Primary School to learn about being an active bystander (or upstander). While you might think your doing nothing wrong and your just minding your business, but you actually are just being lazy and not helping people in need because of bullying, you can take action by speaking to your friends to show that bullying is wrong. There are many ways to discourage bullying such as:

- Disapproving and showing it. Some bullies might get uncomfortable or upset if everyone shows they don’t like what they are doing.- By confronting the bully.- You can help the victim and ask if their ok.- Getting a teacher.

Vincent 5RB

Do you know what an active bystander is? An active bystander is somebody that witnesses someone getting hurt and tells the bully “no, that’s bad, stop!” To begin the day, Max, Olivia, Josh, and Vincent and I all walked into this massive gym. We took a seat when all of a sudden I took sight of these delicious cookies. Drawl filled my mouth. I turned my head to realizes that the first activity was starting. I won’t share all of the activities, but I will share the ones that were more fun and intriguing to me.The first activity was all about meeting all the other high school/primary school students in the gym.The second activity was about how we could help some children in the school that have certain issues that need dealing with.Activity 3 and 4 were all about what is a bystander and what is leadership.

Prep RACV Road Safety Incursion

For inquiry 3 prep students have been inquiring into who keeps us safe? Last Wednesday we were eager and excited to take a trip to the library to learn about road safety with the friendly and knowledgeable Anne from RACV. Anne helped students learn how to safely cross roads, remembering to always look both ways and hold our parents’ hands at all times. We also learnt plenty of safety songs and played many games.

We would like to thank Anne from RACV for coming and speaking to the prep students and a big thank you to the prep students for showing what cooperative, curious and enthusiastic learners they can be!

On Thursday June 6, 2RH, 2KA and 2MS and three helpers went on a bus to The Royal Botanical Gardens Melbourne. We went because plants are linked to our inquiry. First, we hopped in a big bus and we drove to The Royal Botanic Gardens. Next, we arrived and we walked to where we were going to eat our snack and we got to play around. After snack we met our leader, called Lanka. She took us on a tour of The Oak Garden. We saw some death mushrooms and we heard some kookaburras. After that we went to Fern Gully and we planted peas and snow peas. We did sweeping, harvesting and watering. Then we looked at slimy, slippery worms. I didn’t want to, but Mrs Hodgson suggested I have a go, so I held one and I did, but this worm wasn’t moving a lot, so it was O.K. Finally, we went back to school. I loved it! I wish I could go again.

Walking into the modern contemporary art room at the National Gallery of Victoria took our breath away. In one room standing like giants were huge 3D shapes a sphere, a cube and a pyramid. Astonishingly, they were constructed out of wood, books and steel. When you looked at the shapes closely you could see lines and those were the actual pages of the books. It was amazing, especially the size of the shapes which stood around 2m x 2m!

Another room was illuminated by This is Shi Yong’s A Bunch of Happy Fantasies (2009), which was a Chinese Poem written in bright red neon lights. The effect was dazzling but made our eyes sore! You could see bright writing for around three minutes after looking away. Apparently this was intended by the artist so his poem stayed in your eyes!

At ACCA, the artist Tom Nicholson carefully constructed a cascading river of clay bricks on the floor titled, ‘Towards a monument to Batman’s Treaty 2013-19’. He created this monument from a different perspective because it laid on the ground instead of standing upright like monuments normally do.

Also on display was Tom Nicholson’s, ‘Evening Shadows’, representing the Murray River in Adelaide. Surrounding this piece were twenty one copies of his painting. But, if you looked closely, you could notice little differences between the artwork such as the painting technique, the clothing the subjects wore and represented different parts of the day.

The students also got a chance to make a clay sculpture. Jasmine made a pencil to represent her passion for the arts such as drawing, writing and colouring and Vicky I moulded her clay into a pot.

Grade 6 Inter School Sport - Soccer

Well done to our boys and girls Soccer teams who competed in the local District Carnival last Friday at JT Gray Reserve. In the boys competition there were two pools of four teams, who played each other in preliminary matches. The winners of each pool would then play off in the Grand Final. We had 2 teams in a pool against two Altona Meadows teams.

Seabrook 1 d Seabrook 2 (9-0) Goals: Dean (3), Max (3), Christian (2), Rishi (1)AMPS 1 d Seabrook 2 (3-0)AMPS 2 d Seabrook 2 (2-0)Seabrook 1 d AMPS 2 (7-0) Goals: Christian (2), Dean (2), Nicholas (1), Aiman (1), Max (1)Seabrook 1 d AMPS 1 (3-2) Goals: Max (1), Dean (1), Aiman (1)

Seabrook 1 had 3 wins and made the grand final against Altona Green, who won the other pool. In the final it was a tough contest throughout the first half. With no score at half time, our team had to dig deep. We had the wind behind and the majority of the play was in our half. Despite many shots at goal, we couldn’t find the back of the net, until the last minute, when Aiman weaved through a couple of defenders and put a ball into Max’s path and he swung a kick past the goalie, who had made quite a few saves up until that point. The ref called time not long after the re-start. Great effort to the boys who will play at the next level in term 3. The team included: Aiman, Dean, Nicholas, Rishi, Arnesh, Max, Paros, Lachlan Mc, Cale, Finley, Christian, Yusuf & Shashwat.

Seabrook 2 unfortunately didn’t have any wins; however, they were very competitive and improved throughout the day. Cooper made some great saves as Goalie, Jayden and Abhijit were solid in defence, Eric and Sean played well through the midfield and Lachlan T and Lucas M tried valiantly to score some goals and had a couple of close misses. The team included Lucas M, Lachlan T, Zak, Jayden, Eric, Zahin, Abhijit, Cooper, Lucas G, Sean, & Ayden.

The Girls comp had 5 teams in it and therefore played everyone once. They started a bit slowly as they got used to how each other played, but then found some good form in the last couple of games. They won 2 matches, drew 1 and lost one to Altona Meadows who ended up winning the day. Our Girls came Runner-up, which was a great effort. The Girls team included Alana, Layelle, Nesrine, Shallom, Maya, Phoenix, Chloe, Jennifer, Sashiana, Lyrra, Ella, Emma & Layla

Support needed with unexplained absences as per DET requirement

Dear Parents/Guardians,

We kindly request that you inform the school via the XUNO message service of your child/ren’s absence. This will help us to reduce the SMS cost to the school as fewer SMS messages will need to be sent daily. Thank you to those parents/guardians who are already using the XUNO message service or informing the school of their child/ren’s absence.

Are you going on holidays?

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Just to inform our community that the Department of Education requires notification to the school in writing for all extended leave. This can be done by popping into the office and filling in the extended family leave registration form or writing a note to be presented to the office.

Thank you
