School’s uniform order form. I would like to remind all students that our full school uniform consists of
• Navy polo shirt

Congratulations
Kobe and Shanae
Haywood competed in the
2012 D’Arcy Slater
Country Schools Classic
tennis tournament
representing the Moore
District Zone. I would like
to congratulate them as
their team won the
competition. They will now
play in the finals for the
Academy Plate at the
State Centre. On behalf of
Goomalling PS
congratulations and good
luck.
Thank you
I would like to thank Terry Schell for customizing our
oversized whiteboard to fit into the Year 4/5 classroom. I
know Mrs Smith and all the students really appreciate
your efforts over the weekend.
Andrew Britton, Principal
The Principal’s Pen
The student councillors and Room 6 hosted our first
assembly of the year. It was fantastic to see how
confident the students were at public speaking. The year
5/6/7 students presented work they have completed
throughout the term in the form of a news report. A very
creative presentation, well done.
I would like to thank Jo Niski who has taken on the role of
leading and mentoring our student councillors. The first
assembly was a credit to her. The councillors were
extremely organised, often using their own time to support
the school. I’m looking forward to the forthcoming
assemblies.
Parent Night
It was great to see so many parents attend our annual
parent and community BBQ night. It was an opportunity
for teachers to present information about their classroom
to parents. Thank you for your support.
Safe4Kids– Protective behaviours.
Protective Behaviours Education is a proactive, holistic, whole community approach to teaching life skills to children. It teaches the children themselves language and principles of Protective Behaviour, which helps them identify unsafe situations, and arms them with the tools to either seek appropriate assistance or to protect themselves. Holly-ann Martin is presenting the information to parents on Tuesday 13th March at the pavilion, Goomalling, 7-9pm. It will be great to see you all there. Please RSVP to Julie Forward if you intend on attending by Monday 12th March.
Swimming Carnival
The annual Mortlock Swimming Carnival is being held at
the Goomalling Swimming Pool on Friday 9th March.
There has been a substantial amount of planning being
undertaken by Mrs Forward and Mrs Shelia Smith; thank
you for your time and effort, I know all the teachers,
students and parents from the competing schools
appreciate your commitment. Good luck to all the
competitors.
