TERM 2 WEEK 7 NEWSLETTER

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

I have been informed by Catholic Education Western Australia (CEWA) that an announcement regarding the new substantive principal for Holy Rosary School will be made tomorrow. All families will be sent the information electronically.

Next Friday, 17th June, we will be holding our annual Faction Athletics Carnival. Mr. Kayde has been busy preparing the students for their track, field and team events. The Athletics Carnival is always a great day so please make an effort to support your child and the school.

Our Year 6 students are busy fundraising for their camp in Term 3. At the moment they are selling raffle tickets for a signed, framed West Coast Eagles jumper with second prize a painting donated by Mark Norval and third prize a $100 voucher donated by Derby Shell. You can purchase tickets from our Year 6 students, at the Derby Markets each Saturday or from the school office. Tickets are $5.

On Tuesday we had a very productive professional learning day for all of the staff. Our presenter was Roger Saulsman who is a school improvement consultant. Roger ran us through high impact teaching strategies (Explicit Instruction) and the importance of coaching and feedback for the staff. Our staff are doing an amazing job and it has been wonderful to see them embrace the feedback given to them following their observations.

Please remember to contribute to our Containers for Change initiative by either sending your containers to school or when you take them to the disposal point please quote our number C10566203

Thank you for supporting our Healthy Eating and plastic/packaging free policy. We have gone from putting out 11 landfill bins to 4 each week. This is an enormous improvement. Well done!
