PRINCIPAL MATTERS

Today we are recognising the extraordinary effort of our teachers. The world of teaching is continuing to

become a more complex and demanding career. The only way that we are going to attract and keep high

quality educators in our public education system is show them that they are truly valued. We are blessed to

have a team of teachers at Hastings who are relentless in their pursuit to deliver the finest learning

experiences for students. Over the next week, I encourage parents, carers and students to share a message

of thanks or appreciation with teachers. We are working very hard to promote the wellbeing of our whole

school community and gratefulness is a very healthy practice. It benefits the giver and the receiver

enormously. To all of our teachers, I am so grateful for your daily work, the care you show and the learning

you nurture!

A very big thank you to Julia Shearsby (mum of Patience, Asher & Lucas Mansfield) and Katie Wilson (mum

of Marli & Eli Bennett) for the endless hours they have put in to the planning and organisation for this year’s

Hullabaloo. Many thanks also to the parents, grandparents, our Year 5 & Year 6 students and students

from Hastings Secondary College Port Macquarie Campus for volunteering their time on stalls and activities.

We hope all families will join us tomorrow and enjoy our Hullabaloo.

Thank you to everyone who has paid their resources levies this year. These fees pay for the resources all

students use throughout the year including their exercise books, access to online maths, art & craft supplies,

maths and science equipment and first aid supplies. Unpaid fees leaves the accounts to be finalised by

school funds which then takes money away from other

school projects including the purchase and upgrade of

technology equipment. Reminder invoices for unpaid

accounts will again be sent home. I hope all accounts will

be finalised before the end of November.

BUSHFIRE EMERGENCY EVACUATION DRILL

Notes went home, and emailed, on Wednesday regarding the compulsory Bushfire Emergency Evacuation

drills. Unfortunately, a typing error was not picked up prior to printing and the date should read November

not October. In a real life situation, permission is not required to evacuate school grounds in an emergency.

In a practice situation, permission is required. Permission notes must be returned by Wednesday, 30th

October.

TERM 4 SPORT CHOICES

A reminder to students in Stage 2 and Stage 3, your sports choices for Term 4 start next Wednesday (Year

3 & Year 4) and Friday (Year 5 & Year 6). If you’re surfing – don’t forget your swimmers & a towel and Yoga

participants require a towel or yoga mat.

RELAY FOR LIFE FUNDRAISING

To raise money for their Relay for Life fundraising, School Parliamentarians are

selling glow sticks and glow wands at school on Thursday, 31st October. Glow Sticks

are 2 for $1.00 and Wands $2.00 each. Students will not be able to use these items

at school but they will make a great accessory for any family night time activity.
