Traffic Flow

Please can we all be aware of working expediently in our drop-off and pick-up traffic flow by noting the following:

  • Parents/Guardians exit their vehicle to see children off or remove their bags from the car delaying the drop off process. It would be great if parents could stay in the car and students exit as quickly as possible.
  • Some Parents/Guardians walk into the school grounds leaving the vehicle in the kiss and drive during drop off and pick up. Please can this be avoided.
  • Parents do not use the full extent of the kiss and drive area for primary instead choosing to stop outside the front gate or side gate. Please move as far down the area as possible.
  • Children exit the vehicle opening a door onto the road. Please use the door opening onto the drop-off area.

On average our community are off the campus within 15 minutes for drop offs and pick-ups, which is wonderful considering the number of cars involved. Thank you for your patience and consideration as we continue to successfully navigate our traffic flow.

 

Inter House Athletics Carnival – year 3 to 6

Dear Parents and Students,

Please scan carefully through the programs and information accessed through the links. The Information for Parents sheet outlines many of the common questions that parents and students have regarding the two days of competition(HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING THIS CAREFULLY FIRST). The Wednesday jumps and throws program indicates the events and times for each class. The Friday sprints and team games program indicates what division each student will compete in. The Friday team games list indicates the team games that each student will be involved in(you may need to click on the tabs below to find the correct gender and year group). Please ensure that there are no clerical errors in the program, which is very possible when constructing the spread sheets. Please let me know at daniel.parker@ststephens.wa.edu.au if you identify any issues.

Term 3 – Notices – Week 5

Well, it’s finally here – we have found ourselves in the week of Aladdin Jr! Our Year 5s and 6s, as well as the incredible staff, have been putting so much work into the preparations for the production, this is the week where it all comes together. If you haven’t already purchased your tickets, I recommend getting online now (https://events.humanitix.com/dunaladdinjr) as there are only a few tickets left at some of the shows. It is sure to be a delight to watch.

This week is also Book Week, with various events happening across the week with a culmination on Friday with our Book Week Parade at 8:45-9:10am for Years 3-6, followed by the ELC parade from 9:30am – 9:50am. Please feel free stay for a picnic at the ELC after the parade (9:50am – 10:30am). A coffee van will be onsite but you will need to bring your own picnic blankets and snacks, but popcorn will be provided for the students.

On a different note, I wanted to encourage you with something that was shared with me the other day. In all the busyness, distraction and struggle that seems to be so present in our lives at the moment, sometimes I think we forget that we have the ability to look beyond that, and recognise the blessings that can be all around us everyday. This little story did a wonderful job of bringing that to light for me – I hope it can for you, too.

Term 3 – Notices – Week 4

Dear Families and Friends, 

There has been lots of activity across the whole Primary School over the  beginning of term, including Celebrating 101 days of school, class assemblies, camps, music celebrations and rehearsals, to name but a few. It’s so lovely to see the students experiencing different events across the school. Thank you for your support and huge thanks to our wonderful educators across the School for creating, organising and delivering these events.

This week  across the School these things are happening:-

  • There will be a Year 5 camp information evening on Wednesday 18 August at 6.30pm.
  • 3F will be presenting their class assembly on Friday 20 August at 2.30pm.
  • On Friday 20 August our ELC students will be attending the Edu Book Week Performance 9:15am – 10:15am. Unfortunately, this is a student-only event.

Please also keep an eye on your child’s class blog for any further information relating to activities.

As we continue this term and year with such privileges to meet together mask free, we must keep in our prayers the other states in the country that are currently navigating lockdowns and rises in Covid numbers. We are aware of the impacts this will have on individuals, families and businesses in these areas. Many of our communities here at the School have loved ones across the country. Please ensure that you continue to extend kindness and support to these community members over the coming weeks. If you are personally affected and require support from the school please don’t hesitate to contact Jarrod or me.

We are blessed to have many parents and staff that regularly pray for our School community. This has been greatly appreciated over the years espically when we have been navigating challenging times.

24 “‘“The Lord bless you

     and keep you;

 25 the Lord make his face shine on you

     and be gracious to you;

 26 the Lord turn his face toward you

     and give you peace.”’

Numbers 6:24-26 NIV

Hope you have a wonderful week.

Term 3 – Notices – Week 3

Dear Parents,

Welcome to Week 3. I just wanted to take this opportunity to encourage you, if you haven’t already, to watch a recent TED talk by a seven year old girl, Molly Wright (https://www.ted.com/talks/molly_wright_how_every_child_can_thrive_by_five?language=en). Dr Pretorius recently used this as a basis to present a devotion to the staff at school, and I found it to be both challenging and inspirational. Essentially, it’s a message about the power of connection – particularly connection between parents and their young children. It really is worth watching. To take it to another level, Dr Pretorius challenged us on also thinking through the need that we have for a true connection with God. Again, if you haven’t already, it really is worth watching.

Here are a few dates and events to keep in mind for this week.

  • Monday 9 August
    • Year 1 “101 Day Celebration”
    • Year 2 to attend Primary (3-6) Worship 8:45am
    • Year 4B Camp starts (through Wednesday)
  • Wednesday 11 August
    • Year 4M Camp starts (through Friday)
    • Years 3, 5 and 6 Interhouse Music Festival
  • Thursday 12 August
    • ELC School Tour 9-10am
    • ELC Pizza Meal Deal
    • Running Club (all ages, every Thursday, 8:00-8:20, for fun, fitness and House points)
  • Friday 13 August
    • Worship Year 1 and Year 2

Kind regards,

Jarrod and Hannah.

Term 3 – Notices – Week 2

Dear Families, 

The term has started well with the students and teachers settling back into School routines enjoying being back together. We have quite a few notices on this week’s blog, so please take the time to read through each notice so you are aware of what is happening across the Primary School in the coming weeks.

The Week Ahead:-

Thursday 5 August

  • PP Ambulance Visit 9 -11am
  • Constable Care Year 1 & Year 2

Friday 6 August

  • ELC Worship (Kindy & PP) Parents of these classes are welcome to come and join us for a fun-packed, interactive Worship session with Mr Steven.
  • 3-6 4M are presenting their class assembly. Parents are welcome to come and watch.

Book Week Parade 2021

This year the Library Team have changed the way in which the Book Week parades across the School take place. There have been several requests from parents for the opportunity of our younger students to see the older students parade. As such, the first parade will now take place at 3-6. ELC students who have older siblings are invited to join their parents and watch the older students parade and then come to the ELC.

Year 2 Transition dates.

Our Year 2 students will be starting their transition program this term. Over this semester the Year 2 students will start to transition to Year 3. To help students familiarise themselves with the 3-6 space and staff, we have planned a series of sessions for them to attend.  Year 2 parents, please be aware of the dates where your child will need to be dropped at 3-6 rather than the ELC. If you have any questions regarding the transition events, please contact your classroom teachers.

Term 3:

  • Week 3 (Monday, 9 August) Worship @ 8:45am Year 2 students to be dropped off at the Primary School (3-6) for the start of the day (8:30am). Following worship, there will be a tour of the 3-6 space. The students will then stay for a play in the playground, eat their Crunch and Sip then walk back to the ELC. Year 2 parents are invited to stay for Worship. There will be a separate parent tour after worship with an opportunity for you to ask any questions or queries you may have regarding your child’s transition or the Primary School routines.

 

  • Week 4 (Friday, 20 August) Aladdin Dress Rehearsal @ 12:30pm  Year 2 students will walk across to the Primary School to watch the Dress Rehearsal of Aladdin. They will need to be collected from this location, not the ELC, at the end of the day.
  • Week 6 (Thursday, 2 September) Sport and Music @ 8:45am Year 2 students to be dropped at Primary at start of the day (8:30am). Students will have their Sport and Music classes with Mr Parker and Mrs Thorne at the Primary School (3-6). After their lessons, they will eat their Crunch and Sip, before returning to ELC at 10:15am.

  

Term 4:

  • Week 6 (Friday, 26 November) Orientation Day  Year 2 students to be dropped off at Primary at start of the day (8:30am). The children will spend the whole day at the Primary School and will need to be collected from this location, not the ELC, at the end of the day.

We wish you a wonderful week ahead and look forward to seeing you around the school.

Athletics Training – Friday mornings 7:45am to 8:15am, Term 3

There are two athletics carnival dates – Tuesday 7 September for  jumps, throws and 800m – Friday 10 September for sprints and team games

I would like to offer interested students the opportunity to practice shot put, long jump and turbo javelin on Friday mornings this term in lead up to the athletics carnival. Any parents that have expertise or even familiarity in these events, I would love some help. Please email me at daniel.parker@ststephens.wa.edu.au if you are able to help. Students will not need to sign up to attend. If the weather is very wet(like possibly this week), then the session will not go ahead.

Mrs Baird and Mrs Senior will be holding sprint focused training sessions on Thursday mornings in preparation for the athletics carnival.

 

Athletics Carnival – CHANGE OF DATE – now Wednesday 8 Sept. and Friday 10 Sept.

Due to the need for High School student helpers, our scheduled jumps and throws competition day has been moved from the Tuesday to Wednesday 8 September. The Friday date for our sprints and team games will remain on the Friday.

Wednesday 8 September – jumps, throws, 800m

Friday 10 September – sprints, team games

Parents can you please read below in preparation for the two day carnival.

1. Please notify me at daniel.parker@ststephens.wa.edu.au if you are able to help with the Wednesday jumps and throws (I NEED MANY PARENT HELPERS FOR THIS EVENT ALONG WITH THE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS). Help would simply involve measuring with the aid of high school students and a class teacher. There are two sessions – session 1 from 8:35am to 10:40am and session 2 from 11am to 1pm. You can volunteer for one session or both sessions. It will be possible for you to disappear for a moment so that you can witness your child’s efforts in another event. PLEASE INDICATE IF YOU CAN ONLY DO ONE SESSION OR IF YOU CAN DO BOTH.

2. Please notify me at daniel.parker@ststephens.wa.edu.au if your child is unable to participate on the Friday sprints and team games day. I am currently trying to create the program and it will save me significant time if I am made aware of any students that will not be participating. Bearing in mind that this is a compulsory event.

*further information will be released once the program is completed
