Snippets DATES FOR THE DIARY 2015 Moe South Street Primary School Volume One Issue 5 26th February, 2015 Principal’s Prattle Labour Day HolidayMonday 9th of March Last year we started focusing on Growth Mindset. This has continued in the classrooms this year. A person with a growth mindset can feel success when they: can learn anything they want to, when frustrated they perservere, they like to challenge themselves, learn from failure, try hard, they are inspired from other people’s success and their attitude and effort determines everything. MELC drop off zone Whole school Athletics Carnival– Wednesday 11th of March. We are very lucky at South St that we have ample parking in the MELC car park. There is also a drop off zone available. This zone is for cars to drive in, children to exit the car and then cars move on. This is to allow continuous flow in the traffic. If you do need to get out of your car to assist your child, you will need to park in one of the parking bays. This is just not parents at our school it is also parents from the MELC and they have been asked to do the same. Please note the drop off zone is not a parking space to wait for your child while they exit the school. Fundraising Committee As a part of School Council we have a fundraising co-ordinator, Robyn Wildblood. Robyn is seeking assistance with a variety of activities during the year. These activities include the Easter Raffle, the Mother’s Day stall and the Father’s Day stall. If you would like to assist with one of these activities please come and see the office staff and they will put you in contact with Robyn. School PhotosWednesday 18th of March. School Council Meeting The next School Council meeting will be on 17th March . Office Bearers will be elected at this meeting. Bike and Scooters We have had a number of children riding scooters to school without helmets. It is law and school policy that all children who ride their bike or scooter to and from school must wear a helmet. The school’s motto is “No helmet, No wheels’. Please reinforce this at home and make sure your child has a helmet. ELECTRONIC EMAIL A number of families are requesting to have their Snippets sent via email. At present we will still send a paper copy home to all eldest in the family. Just a reminder, Snippets are available on the school website (www.moe-southst-ps.vic.edu.au) as well.
