A Message from our Principal, Ms Pantelis

Farewell Mrs. Fagan

Next week will be Mrs Fagan’s, our Learning and Support Teacher’s last day of teaching after a career dedicated to educating students.

Mrs Fagan has been a valuable member of our staff and she will be sorely missed by the students, parents and all of her colleagues. We wish her the very best in Retirement and thank her for all her work in helping to create a better future through the lives of our students.

Congratulations Burraneer Bay students that represented our school at the zone Cross Country put in a tremendous effort on Monday. Well done to all students that participated and thank you to Mr Tindall and Mrs Nakkan for their

contribution in making this event run so smoothly.

Talented Students Congratulations to the following students who are part of the 2019 Burraneer Bay PS Debating Team. They are: Zofia M(6T), Jemima H(6T), Zoe W(6N), Isabelle F (6F), Olivia C(5R), Olivia W (5R), Dane C(5R) and Jasmine S (5A). Wishing them the best of luck for tomorrow.

DEPUTY PRINCIPAL REPORT

Debating We are very excited to be participating in a Debating Competition this term against Woolooware Public School. We have two teams in the competition. One team is made up of students from Year 5 and the other is made up of students from Year 6. Our first day of competition is tomorrow. Our students are loving the experience and are developing their debating skills. The students participated in a debating workshop at Bonnet Bay. This gave them the opportunity to develop their understanding of the debating process. A huge thank you to Miss Rennie and Mrs Bosden who have been training our two teams.

Lost Property We have a brand new tracksuit top in Lost Property and - it doesn’t have a name on it! Our lost property is currently overflowing with items of clothing. Every week we work hard to try and return as many items as possible. It is difficult to locate the owners when items are not labelled with your child’s name or the name is very difficult to read. Please help by checking all items of your child’s clothing to ensure they are clearly labelled. Please help us by encouraging your child / children to take responsibility for their belongings.

Bike Safety Guide lines at school At Burraneer Bay Public School only students in Years 3-6 are permitted to ride their bike to and

Election Day Sausage Sizzle and Cake Stall The P&C have organised an Election Day BBQ and Cake Stall on Saturday May 18th.
