Principal's Message Week 6 Term 3

It has been a very busy few weeks since our last newsletter. On Friday 2nd of June, Years 7, 8 and 9 walked to the Civic Centre to view the WATS production of My Fair Lady. The cast contained both students and staff of Wellington High School and it was an excellent showcase of the talent we have in our community. The students enjoyed the experience and they proved to be great ambassadors for our school.

 

 

The boys and girls soccer teams travelled to Broken Hill to compete in the next round of the CHS knockout. The girls were successful but unfortunately the boys were beaten. It was a wonderful experience for the students and they were able to experience the outback which was a first for many of them. 

The Athletics carnival was a great success and we are still awaiting the final event to be run which will determine the Champion House. We will keep you posted! 

The Stage 4 and 5 end of year excursions are almost finalised and the bookings have been secured. We will be sending home an information sheet to all those students who have expressed an interest in attending. Costings and the amount of the deposit will be set out and the date they will be due. 

Currently, I am reading through all the Semester 1 reports and it is an enlightening experience which I am thoroughly enjoying. These reports will all be posted out before the end of this term. 

Could I also remind you that students are not to leave school at Recess and Lunch without permission and lunch passes will only be granted to students to go home for lunch. They are not to leave school to go down the street and if they wish to buy their lunch it is to be done at the school canteen. Don't forget that students must ensure they are attending school as often as possible. 

Education is dependent on regular attendance and achievement will naturally increase as a result. I have noticed that a number of students are being collected in the afternoon outside the front gate. This is the bus zone and if you wish to pick your children up it must be at either the Arthur or Simpson Street entrances.
