Cross Country

Travelling to Eildon PS for the Cluster Cross Country last week was lovely. The autumn colour was perfect and the

excitement of the students looking forward to their races was high. Mrs Male, Mr Fisher and I were very proud of the

sportsmanship of our students, and the encouragement they gave to their peers was great. The students all ran to

the best of their ability and many are already thinking about how they can improve their placing next year. The

following students will be par#cipa#ng in the Division event on the Yea Racecourse on 2nd June 2015 Melody, Abbey,

Cassy, Angus, Breanna, Shayla, Zoee, Nellie and Jayden. Good luck to these runners and congratula#ons to all our

students who have been training and ran at the Cluster Cross Country.

Anzac Day

It seems that all Anzac services were well a2ended this year and Yea’s service on Saturday was no excep#on. It was a

wonderful service and an example of how the whole community can work together to achieve something special. Our

singing group were so pa#ent and respec5ul standing for a long #me before they sang and then listening and

par#cipa#ng in the service. The songs they sang were enjoyed by many in the audience who joined in the singing.

Thank you to Sal and Miss Fillmore for their prepara#on for this event and also Miss Fillmore for suppor#ng the

students to make poppies in class for the many white crosses that were opposite the cenotaph.

Holly, Melody, Hunter and Tobias lay flowers on behalf of our school during the service and Caleb a2ended the

Glenburn service and represented our school in that community.

Our Parents & Friend’s under the organisa#on of Kylie Warren provided a delicious morning tea for many people in

the community a<er the service at the RSL. It was a very busy morning for all our parents and all the support was

appreciated by the school and Yea community.

Student Survey

Every year the Grade 5 and 6 students are required to fill out a student survey set up by the DET (Department of

Educa#on & Training). This was completed on Monday and the results are sent to the school later in the year.

CHAPPY’S CHAT—From the School Chaplain

A BIG hello to the Yea Primary School community! This is my third week at Yea Primary School and it’s been lovely meeting many children, parents and staff. So far we have started a ‘Lunchtime Live’ activities group at lunchtimes which involves sports, games, crafts, cartooning, dance and lots more for any students who wishes to participate. I’ve also been spending a lot of time assisting in the classroom which has been very beneficial in learning lots of names! I also get the opportunity to add to the newsletter! This week I wanted to mention that there are five ways to express love emotionally. Each care giver and child has a primary love language that, when spoken, makes us feel loved. They are listed below:

ACTS OF SERVICE- Do you remember the old saying, "Actions speak louder than words"? This may look like: * Helping or being helped with chores, school projects, making meals and snacks etc.

PHYSICAL TOUCH- Long before an infant understands the meaning of the word love, he or she feels loved by physical touch. This may look like:

* Receiving kisses, hugs, cuddles and high fives

Physical ac#vi#es: racing, wrestling, climbing in your lap etc.

QUALITY TIME– Giving your child your undivided attention is important. This may look like:

* Eating together, reading a story, playing a game/sport, doing crafts together etc

May this information bless you in your parenting. Keep smiling! Shelley Davis (School Chaplain)

We would love to receive

any dona#ons of wood

offcuts or tools to aid our

boys woodworking group

this term. Please give any

dona#ons to Jonathan

Fisher. Thank you for your

help! Shelley

DOLLY'S DISCO BINGO will be a hilarious night that will have you tapping your dabbers, dancing like a maniac from Fame and singing in your seat to all the classics.

Disco Bingo puts the DISCO into BINGO and the fun into a boring Friday night,

Dolly plays 20 secs of a well known song for players to mark off on their Disco Bingo tickets.

A disco bingo round mixes up the music from all genres... so even the musically challenged can play.

It’s just like regular bingo, but instead of shouting out numbers we play songs!

Bingo without the balls!

No 'Dancing Queen 17', just the music...

WHEN: Friday 8th May TIME: 7:30pm - 10pm... WHERE: Yea Shire Hall

TICKETS: $25 pp. Tickets available from Yea Primary School Office.
