Dear Families,
 Food Fair. What a great night for all!!! The weather was kind and the
enjoyment was obvious. One of the terrific aspects for me was the opportunity
to catch up on many ex Chilwell parents. Over the next few newsletters I will
acknowledge many of the supporters we had for the night.
Firstly, I need to thank and acknowledge firms/parents who have left Chilwell,
as their children have left for secondary education, who still support our school
and it's children.
 Brian Digby - who loaned us the cafe marquee and fencing/ counter for the
Wine Tent.
 Mark Blunt, Greg Chadwick and Tim Forshaw who played in the "Dadbeats"
 Imogen Brough who again entertained us on stage.
 Michael Smith who set up all the electrical for the Fair.
 Craig Hosking who supplied all the chicken needed for the BBQ stall.
 Graeme Landy loaned us electrical stands.
 Geoff from Great Ocean Road Real Estate and Connect Financial Services
who donated a van and fuel for pick-ups and deliveries.
 Steampocket Cafe: Cam and our barista, Gilmore.
We also need to acknowledge the fantastic job undertaken by the Managers for
each stall. Thank you to:
 Ian Royce, Alastair Mulroyan, Jodie Reid, Kylie Whitcher, Anna Spurling,
Yoko Dunlop, Clare Dowling, Elissa Sullivan, Bec Keenan, Georgie Ross,
Sue Di Sciascio, Melissa & Peter Temple, Jacqui Parks, Meg Gilby,
Fiona Chomley, Deb Fisher, Heather Alexander, the Eggins, Ridley & Allen
families.
The list of people to thank is enormous but at the risk of forgetting someone
could I thank the following:
- Stall managers and rostered parents.
- Howard Philpott who led the group as Fair Manager
- Volunteers who assisted with the set up on Thursday and Friday and to the
group who gave up part of Saturday to re-establish our school.
- Sponsors who so generously supported our endeavours.
- Susie Ward for her efforts with sponsors.
- Nadia, Cindy and Jane who acted as the go to for stalls.
- Bill and Louise who took on the wine tent.
- Silent Auction organisers (Anna & Kelly & donation volunteer helpers) who
organised a most successful Silent Auction.
- Jodie Bliss Real Estate – our Platinium Sponsor
- Yoori for her work in entertainment.
- Greg Bliss who acted as our MC.
- Cameron Thiele who was our auctioneer.
- Alastair, Simon & Mike who picked up and returned lights.
-
The children and staff who were so flexible and adaptable.
The numerous businesses who supplied donations.
Our office staff who supported all aspects.
Chloe & the OOSHC team for organising the relocation of Out of School
Hours Care
A final Food Fair Flyer will be published on Thursday. If you wish to have an
article included please have it at the office by 9am. or email item to
[email protected]
The final figure will not be known for a little while but it will be approximately
$48,000. The obvious challenge for next year is to have just as enjoyable a
night and also crack $50,000!!!!!!!
 Food Fair Debrief: This is scheduled for this TOMORROW NIGHT,
Wednesday, 25th March at 7pm. This is an opportunity to review and refine the
2015 Fair. If you are unable to attend please send any suggestions to
[email protected]
 Lightning Premiership: The Year 5/6s missed the opportunity to watch the
Food Fair take shape in order to represent our school at the Summer Lightning
Premiership. As always their behaviour and sportsmanship was on display and
as always they did not let us down!!
 Painters: Oooops!! Last week I thanked our painting crew who did a great
job of painting our new deck. Great job, BUT I forgot to add Cate Paton to our
Picasso's. Thanks Cate!
 Out of School Hours Care: As we are approaching the end of term it is time to
make sure that all accounts are back to zero. This zero balance is a
requirement for using the service. Could I also thank those families who have
continued to have their balances in the positive, this is our preference and it is
pleasing to see so many in the positive.
 Planning Week: This week, as usual, we are having a Planning Week. During
this week staff are released from the class to plan the curriculum for term 2.
The class is covered by our Specialist teachers (Visual Art, Physical Education,
Technology, Library Italian or a relief teacher) this time ensures a planned and
targeted curriculum delivery next term.
 Relief Teachers: At Chilwell the most valuable teaching time is when the class
teacher and students are together, however staff, like all of us, get sick or need
to care for loved ones. At these times we employ teachers on a casual basis.
We attempt to employ the same relief teachers all the time in the same class,
however this is not always possible. These teachers know our school, children,
routines and expectations. At our school we are fortunate to have very skilled
and talented relief staff.
 End of Term: What a busy but very fruitful term we have had:
Congratulations and thank you to all for the work with
 The Food Fair.
 Settling all children into the school routine. This is especially relevant to
families of our Prep children.
 Cross country for both the senior and junior grades.
 Parent teacher interviews.
 Introduction of new families to Chilwell.
 Various excursions and walks which enhanced our curriculum delivery.
 School Council elections.
 Prep Open sessions.
 School camps for Year 6
And many more activities and challenges that I cannot think of at the moment!
Congratulations and thank you to all for the work, commitment and support we
give to each other. The strength of this school is many in number but the
support is at the centre of that strength.
 Friday: As always Friday will conclude with a final assembly outside, weather
permitting, or inside the Multi-Purpose Room. The assembly will begin at 2pm.
and dismissal will be at 2.30 pm. Please be aware that if you are crossing
Pakington Street to attend assembly that the crossing is not supervised until
2.30pm.
 Sunsmart: The school policy is to continue the wearing of the school hats until
the end of April. This is in line with Anti-Cancer guidelines. The potential for
damage to skin etc. continues until this time. Please pack the hats in bags
ready for the first day of term 2 asap.
 Birthdays. Happy birthday to the following students who celebrate their
birthdays over the next couple of weeks.

2015 Schools Writing Competition
Entries close Sunday March 29, 2015.
Sarah Jeffreys (Literacy Co-Ordinator)
Chilwell Cross Country 2105
Last Thursday week the Barwon Valley Fun Park was transformed with students
from grades 3-6 competing in the Chilwell House Cross Country. There was
chanting, students dressed in red, yellow, blue or green, parents and friends
cheering and supporting and some sizzling times were recorded.
The weather was kind, our House Captains showed terrific leadership and our
students were wonderful. Everybody competed to the best of their ability and can
be very proud of their efforts. All students who competed were awarded points for
their House.
In the end the results were :
Balyang fourth with 151 points
Bareena third with 155 points
Marnock second with 158 and
Riversdale winning with a final score of 225.
Special thanks to the parents and staff who helped out on the day. Your support
in; marshalling, timing, scoring, officiating, taking photos and administering first aid
for our runners was fantastic. Particular thanks must go to the parents and staff
who were spread along the course. The encouragement and support provided by
them to the students whilst running is of vital importance. It ensures that we have
constant visual contact with the students and the moral support they provide is
invaluable. Without this assistance sporting events of this nature would not be
able to occur.
The District Cross Country team has been selected and is based upon times from
our House Cross Country Event. The first eight students in the 10, 11 and 12/13
year old age groups will proceed to this event, however if a student in the 9
year-old age group has a faster time than a student in the 10 year old age
group, that student will take that spot. The date for this event will be held on
Friday the 17th of April at Fyansford Common. If your child is unable to compete
on this date, can you please let me know A.S.A.P, so that we are able to enter a
full team. The team will be given all details shortly.
Regards, Peter Blackall

Cricket Boys A
Lightning prem is where you play Softball and kanga cricket and the A
team played the best and it come on top every match. Smashing the ball
all over the park, taking great catches hitting the stumps for run outs. The
first game we played against Fyans Park B. We batted first and Max
made a fifty, smashing every ball for 6 and 12. We easily won. Then we
played Fyans Park A we were playing that well but we still won by 43
runs. Then we played our third match and dominated. Lachlan hit 3
twelves in a row and gave Tino two exciting crowd catches. We won by
123 runs. Then it was the big match, the Grand Final against Hamlyn
Banks C. It was like every match playing our best and going to the next
round!
We won all our
four matches. We
won the Grand
Final 169-81!!

Lightning Prem is an event where schools compete in different sports. We
were the Boys Cricket B team and we had good roster, but we were
unlucky with the teams we were versing. We were up against Chilwell D
team and we won, but that was the only win we had because later on we
played to Herne Hill A and Fyans Park A and we lost both of those
games. We didn’t make it to the finals, but at least we got a win!
1 win, and 2
losses.
We lost our
second game by a
mere 3 runs!

This day would be will be a great day to compete against other schools
and make new friends. As I take my few steps on the oval for our first
game I see the other team making a plan to win the game. We flip the
coin. Chilwell won so we went and fielded first. Chilwell were victorious
and at the end of the day we won 2/3 of our games.
Won 2 and lost 1
game to the
eventual Grand
Finalists

first game and we were full of nerves. Once we got on the field were

she caught 2 ball! well since we had won all our games so far we were all
pumped up and ready to go. In the last games that we also won we vs
Herne Hill and that was a great game. we made the final with Fyans Park
and won that game as well! we all did a outstanding job and had a great
day!

On Friday the 20th of March all the Year 5 and 6 went to Stead Park to
play softball or kanga cricket. I was in the softball boys A team. Our first
game was against Manifold Heights B team. It was a really fun game and
we won by a lot. The next game was a lot harder we versed Manifold
Heights A team, At the end of the first innings it was a draw. In the second
innings we did end up losing but we still had heaps of fun. After that we
won the rest of our games and it was a good day.
We played 5

Friday the 20th of March we were off for the Summer Lightning Prem. It
was a really sunny day as we sat down to listen to the rules some I didn’t
even know but hey wasn’t that the reason he was telling us! The first
match we lost but we still had a good hard try. After the game I was
starving and so was everybody else. We won the next two but sadly
enough we lost the one after that and the last one.
We lost 3 games

Softball Girls C
The pressure was on as the C Team girls went head to head with Fyans
Park. They‘re eyes scanned us over us with intimidation. It was our last
match. We just had to win! Base by base Fyans Park sneaked as many
as their greedy little team could! It didn’t seem fair, almost as if ‘sneaking’
shouldn’t be a rule, but it was so we accepted it. It was a competitive
game but we tried our hardest.
It was a very
active day. We did
lose against
Fyans Park but it
was a great
opportunity for
everyone. Overall
Chilwell P.S C
girls came 4th.
