BOOMI & SCHOOL COMMUNITY NEWSLETTER Principal’s Message
Playground Extension The new playground equipment arrived today! The
children are very excited and are looking forward to being
able to use it next week sometime! It will also be available
for community use during the holidays as part of the Share
Our Space Program. This program allows everyone in the
community to enjoy our playground, oval and sports courts
to encourage children and families to keep active.
Beach to Bush
Surf Lifesaving NSW travelled to Boomi on Tuesday. Their
one-hour presentation focused on beach and water safety.
Students learnt about
general beach safety, sun
safety, rips and waves,
sea creatures, basic first
aid, rescues and getting
help from a lifeguard. The
children engaged
positively with the
lifesavers and have come
away with some valuable
lessons about safety at
the beach and in the
water.

Presentation Day Update
It has been decided that Grandparents of Year 6 students may attend the
Presentation Day ceremony this year as it will be their final ceremony.
Unfortunately, at this time we are unable to allow more than the 2 adults
per family to attend for all other families. We will keep you informed of any
changes.
Transition for Kindergarten Students starting 2021
We will be running a transition program from 9 – 11:30am next Wednesday
25th November. To attend, enrolment forms must be completed and
returned to the school. Mrs Oates has some exciting activities organised for
the children to complete while they are here. We look forward to seeing the
amazing future students of Boomi Public School!
Rewards Day
To celebrate the success of the students
in the PBL merit level system, we will be
travelling to the Moree Pool and
waterslide on Tuesday 15th December.
We will leave school at 8:30am.
For your children to perform at their best, it is vital that
they are getting enough sleep. Lack of sleep has a
detrimental effect on their ability to learn and function at
school.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any concerns, queries or
great ideas.

*January Swimming 2021Boomi. Expressions of interest.
In January 2021 at Boomi Pool there will be no Intensive
Swimming by Royal Life or Sport and Recreation as lots of you
have known in past years.
However I am happy to provide a week of Intensive Swimming
from January 4 to January 8. One week or 5 days as opposed
to a 2 week program of 8 days if anyone would like to join me.
I will be in Sydney from December 30th until the morning of
January 4th. So as you will be able to work out, I will not be in a
position to redo classes the day before, due to late
enrolments, as I have done so for many years in the past.
If you would be interested in joining these classes please let
me know ASAP so I can start putting together a list and
working out the best fit for all.
Look forward to hearing from you
Regards
