Sickness

We are being guided by public health it is important that children are not sent to school with any signs of a cold.  This is to help stop the spread of any illness.  It is a directive of public health and will continue into Term 3. The poster below reminds us of how to protect ourselves from COVID.

This Thursday July 2^nd our students will compete in the annual Glen Huon Primary School Cross Country. Although it will look different to other years our students have been training hard and are keen to compete in the race. The carnival will take place across the course of the day with students from Prep-Grade 6 each competing in a race in their class groups and results will be based on time. There will be no disruption to normal classes as all races will take place during their PE time.

To remain in line with the current regulations unfortunately we are unable to have parents attending the carnival but I will be posting as many Facebook updates as possible throughout the day to make it feel like you are here with us!

Please ensure your child comes prepared for the day with plenty of water and appropriate footwear and clothing for running in all conditions!

Thanks

For the photographers own safety and to ensure our business is not affected please note they reserve the right to refuse to photograph any child if they present to school sick. This is not common but to ensure the photographers aren't forced to address a difficult situation on the day we stress to families that they can not bring their child in for a quick photo: No exceptions.

The kinder children have been experimenting with mixing their own colours and painting still life of the  Flowers from our garden.

We have also been growing our own beans and cuttings from the garden.  The children are learning about plants and how they grow.

As we are about to head into our holidays, I thought I’d introduce you to a brand new free resource of Mathematical problems to keep your brains growing until our next newsletter.

“Problemo”, accessed on line via https://problemo.edu.au/student/discovery allows you to select your year appropriate challenges. After watching a video, there are a series of questions that allow you to learn as you go. Access to tips and the video are waiting alongside if you need them.

Have a great holiday break.

Enjoy your discoveries. Stephanie van der Schans, AST/Numeracy

Calling all Junior soccer players!

The Junior season is going ahead this year with a ten round competition starting on 18 July and finishing on 26 September. We need to get an idea of who is keen to play so that we can work out how many teams to nominate. We had hoped to have training this Thursday but as the ground is currently closed due to the weather it looks as though that won't be possible. We understand that some families might not want to commit to a shorter season that involves social distancing for spectators but we are keen to provide an opportunity to play for any players who are interested.

The important things to think about when making a decision about playing this season are:

• At the moment we don't have access to the toilets at the ground. This is a Huon Valley Council ruling and we can't change it.
• Fees will be the same as last year - $100 per Junior player (with a $10 discount for siblings)
• Ticket to Play will still be operating (although it is currently being restructured) and will cover the $100 fee for eligible families.
• You might not end up on the same team as you were in last year, you might not have the same coach - as we work out who is playing and who isn't we may need to restructure the teams depending on where the numbers are.
• Players will all have to be responsible for their own shirts. Sharing oranges at half time may not be an option.

If you've thought about all that and you're still keen to play then please let us know. You can:

• email huonvalleysoccerclub@yahoo.com.au
• Come and see us at the soccer ground on Thursday afternoon from 3:30 onwards

We need numbers ASAP because we have to nominate teams by 30 June.

Thanks for your support.

The Huon Valley Soccer Club Committee
