ACMA – Online Safety Presentation
Yesterday we had three fantastic sessions with Lesley
from ACMA. In the afternoon, Lesley spoke to all the
students from year’s 3-6, sharing information about
staying safe online, protecting identity and being aware
of scams and threats. Lesley’s presentation took the
place of our staff meeting where we, as teachers,
learned many things about our own personal security
and ways to help our students. The evening parent
session was well attended with many eye opening facts.
We hope that you will continue to work with your
children to ensure that the internet is a positive and safe
place by visiting www.cybersmart.gov.au and
investigating all the fun activities they have available.
REPORT PROCESS FEEDBACK
In 2014 the DEECD (now DET) made changes to the
expectations for reporting to parents. Also, this year the
school is moving to a new provider (Accelerus Light) for
our reporting package software. With this in mind, it is
an ideal time to seek your input to the process. We have
created a survey for you to complete to allow input into
this process. We would like to see as many responses as
possible. The survey should take you no more than 10
minutes and your views will be considered in any
changes we make. Please use the Survey Monkey link
below or alternatively you can pick up a paper copy from
the office or request one via email. We will leave the
survey open until the end of week 1, term 2 so that
everyone has plenty of time to participate.

NEW SMOKING BANS
While smoking was banned on the grounds of all
Victorian Government schools by the Minister for
Education in 2009 via a Ministerial Ban Order, new bans
are enshrined in legislation and will also apply to
Catholic and independent schools in Victoria, thereby
ensuring a consistent approach across the government
and non-government sectors.
From 13 April 2015, smoking will be banned within four
metres of an entrance to all primary and secondary
schools in Victoria, and within the school grounds, under
an amendment to the Tobacco Act 1987. You will see
new, ‘No Smoking’ signs at all entrances to the school
premises which is a legislative requirement. We hope
that these bans continue to create an environment
which is safe for all children, families, staff members
and visitors to RPS.
RIVER REDGUM
You may have noticed a new art work addition to our
school this week. Anna Taifernopoulos, who is a parent
at our school, was commissioned to create an Art piece
and activity for the Banyule Festival this year. Anna’s
piece is a beautiful River Red Gum sculpture which
embraces the use of recycled materials to represent a
native species from the Banyule area. Anna’s activity at
the festival focused on the wishes of children for the
future of our environment. We are very lucky that Anna
has chosen to share her work with us, and the River Red
Gum will be present at school for a period of time during
term 2. In addition to this, Anna has generously offered
to work with our students to support learning in
Environment and Sustainability through Art. We are very
excited to be involved and see the Art work evolve as
the students move forward on this learning journey.
NEW GUITAR TEACHER
As you may be aware, at the end of last year, Michael
Barnes, our guitar teacher moved to full time
employment elsewhere and was no longer able to work
with us. During the course of this term we have been
looking for a suitable replacement for Michael. I am very
pleased to announce that we have found a fantastic new
guitar teacher in Ezekiel Fenn. Ezekiel has had many
years of experience teaching a variety of instruments
both privately and with the Bianca Fenn School of Music.
Ezekiel has a strong passion for education and is keen to
get the guitar program up and running at RPS again in
term two. At this stage we have offered places to
Michael’s students from 2014 first. However, there may
be some spaces for new students. If you have an
interest in enrolling your child in guitar lessons in term
two please let us know by email
[email protected] , or in person at the
office.
END OF TERM ARRANGEMENTS
In keeping with our usual practice, school will finish at
the earlier time of 2.30 p.m. tomorrow, Friday 27th
March. Lunchtime will be from 12.30 to 1.30 p.m.
There will be a whole school assembly in Chandler Hall
at 1:45 p.m. Parents and friends are very welcome to
attend the assembly. The Out of School Hours Care
Program will operate from 2.30 p.m.
SCHOOL RETURNS FOR TERM 2
School commences for term 2 on Monday 13th April.
We will start the term with a whole school assembly.

School Accounts
The holidays are just about here! If families who have
not paid their Term 1 Activity Charges could finalise
these by the end of the term (tomorrow), it will be
much appreciated!
Families are reminded that there is also a charge for
each student for Essential Educational Items,
approved by the School Council and the
Department, of $125.00 for every child. This charge
covers all the stationery items that the school
provides for every student. Whilst this charge is not
expected to be paid until the end of the year, it is still
expected to be paid at some point. You can
consider paying in instalments, all at once, or any
other combination of payments. It is important that
all families realise their obligation to this partnership
between the school and families to provide quality
education for all.
As ever, if you are experiencing any financial
difficulties, please contact the office to make a
confidential appointment with the principal.
Thankyou,
Julie Smith
Business Manager

Literacy News – Book of the Year and
Premier’s Reading Challenge
In term 3, the fantastic Book of the Year competition will
once again be held at Rosanna Primary School. This
biennial competition involves students strengthening
their narrative writing skills through the drafting, editing
and publishing of their very own picture story book. In
past years, the quality of books presented has been
quite amazing, and we are looking forward to seeing
what our students produce in 2015!
Book of the Year is a major literacy event at RPS and, as
such, the decision has been made not to participate as a
school in the 2015 Premier’s Reading Challenge. We
feel that by also making the Premier’s Reading
Challenge a biennial event (alternating with Book of the
Year), we will be able to better focus our resources and
efforts to make both of these events exciting, interesting
and meaningful to student learning.
We encourage students, with the support of their
families, to participate in the 2015 Premier’s Reading
Challenge as home-based readers.
Follow the link to find out more information and the
forms to register:
http://www.education.vic.gov.au/about/events/prc/Page

The Premier’s Reading Challenge will be back, bigger
and better than ever, as a whole-school event in 2016!

Christmas Stall Coordinator Needed
This year will be my last year at RPS. If anyone (or
maybe a team?) is interested in helping me with the
preparation for the Christmas Stall throughout the year
and learning how it runs, and then take over for 2016,
that would be great! This is another great fundraiser for
the school, especially in these times of ever-tightening
budgets. And best of all, the children absolutely love it!
You can contact me, Deb Colosimo on 0407 945 732.
Uniform News
Please note the uniform shop will be open
on the following day
In term 2, the grade 3 and 4 students will be learning
recorder. I am purchasing a class set, but for
hygiene reasons would prefer that people have their
own instrument to practise on. If you need to
purchase one, I will be taking orders through the
school office in week 1 of term 2. These are for
Yamaha recorders, and cost $8.50.

SPORTS
Well you could feel the excitement in the rounders
team last week. Yes, it was sadly our last game,
but we have learnt so much and had so much fun.
We were determined to put all that into our last
game. Well, it really paid off! Because we came
out with a victorious win! The scores were 10 to
18 our way. It was an amazing game and
everyone did so well. I got player of the day, but it
was such an awesome effort by all. Thank you so
much Miss Taylor, if you hadn’t coached us like
you did we wouldn’t have played so well, you’re
amazing! A big thank you to the rounders team.
I’m sure you’ll all agree this has been an amazing
experience and I can’t wait to see if we made the
finals. Thanks Girls!

Rosanna OSHClub update!
Hi everyone,
This week, we are celebrating an early Easter. Children have
been enjoying making Easter Eggs out of polystyrene Easter
eggs, and decorating them with our coloured pins. They have
been enjoying making Easter Eggs out of Pipe cleaners and
beads. Children have also been enjoying our games this week,
such as Roll the Egg, Egg and Spoon race, Bird’s nest game and
playing their own sporting games.
As we come to the end of term 1, I would like to thank
everyone for their wonderful support for the service. Both
children and Educators have so much fun together. It has also
been exciting meeting all the new children and their families
this term, and the service is continuing to grow. We would also
wish everyone a safe holiday and a fun Easter!
