Principal’s Message Dear Parents/Caregivers, This mini newsletter will complete a very successful and often very busy year. Well done students, staff and the school community.
In memory of Amber Cafe (Zorz) Wallerawang Public School had a very sad experience at our Year 6 Farewell on Monday evening where one of our beautiful mums passed away. The Wallerawang school community would like to express our deepest sympathy to Amber’s family and friends.
Congratulations Mrs Rebecca Auld On behalf of the staff, students and school community, I would like to wish Rebecca all the very best in her new position. The school has appreciated her professionalism, her friendship and the amazing way she engaged with the students, staff and community. Rebecca, Goodbye and Good Luck!

Announcement—New Employment
I have been successful at interview for a Business Manager position at The Canobolas Rural Technology High
School. I will commence in this new position on the first day of term next year and I am looking forward to
the new challenges ahead. I have been at ‘Wang’ for over fourteen years as School Administrative Manager

I would like to thank all the staff for being so great to work with, you are such an amazing group of people
with the biggest hearts and the deepest care for others, and provide the best learning environment for all
students! I’d particularly like to acknowledge and thank my loyal admin team; Di Van Der Velden, Kerry Bird
