Humpty Doo Primary School - Newsletter Learning for Life Inclusion - Honesty - Personal Best - Respect - Responsibility Week 8, Term 3 - 15 September 2017 Dear Parents and Carers Our students capacity for joy continues to impress me. The wholehearted way in which they participated in our Fun Run this morning was fantastic. What a wonderful way to begin the day! Thank you to those families who have worked hard raising money, this is one of our most successful fundraisers. Money is due to the office by Wednesday 20 September. A huge thank you to Lendlease who spent the day yesterday beautifying the front of our school and building two very popular teepee structures for our playground. All goods and services were donated to the school by Lendlease. A new school sign will be installed amongst the plants shortly. On Monday 18 September our School Council will be consulting on our school mission and vision. The School Council is our parent community representation. You do not need to be part of council to attend this meeting and I encourage you come along to have your say. The meeting commences at 5pm and is held in the staffroom. The ideas and contributions gained from this meeting will be taken to staff on our Pupil Free Day on Friday 13 October. As a result of these events the school’s vision, mission and strategic plan will be developed for implementation in 2018. Attendance at school is vital. Each missed day at school is associated with progressively lower achievement in numeracy, writing and reading. There are no safe number of days for missing school – each day a student misses puts them behind, and can affect their educational outcomes. Kind regards, Ali Brady, Acng Principal.
