World Teachers’ Day

On Friday 27th October we recognise and celebrate the important work our teachers do here at Dayboro State School. We are very fortunate to have a hard working, caring and supportive team of professionals who strive every day to provide a quality education for our students. This year we are also celebrating ALL our support staff on the same day, as the work they do for us and our students is valued as equally.  

Every day our team at Dayboro are making a difference and we thank all our staff, for your dedication and the positive impact you deliver.

LEARNING AT DAYBORO

It has been very rewarding to see so many of our classes and students showing and practicing the qualities for being a learner that embraces challenges this week. Preps were being challenged by their teacher to learn new concepts and use technology to assist them with their learning this week. They used their IPads to scan QR codes that the teacher had prepared to help them check in on their learning. They were checking their work and making sure they had everything they needed. They still had to do the initial thinking, writing and answering but the IPad was used as a tool to assist them.  Great work Preps for having a go and embracing the challenge!

PREP ORIENTATION MORNING

This term we are holding our Prep 2023 Orientation morning on Wednesday 1^stNovember 9-10am. All future Preps for 2024 are invited to attend with their parents. We have already had some visits from the local Kindy’s. It is such a joy to see next year’s Preps interacting and getting to know our staff, students and each other. The Uniform shop will be open and parents will be able to have a tour of our wonderful school.

Now that the days are starting to get warmer please remember that it is an expectation that all children wear hats during play times and PE lessons. The rule is “No Hat, no Play!” Please remember to name your child’s hat as it makes it much easier to return lost hats to their owners.

Children that do not wear hats are expected to be in the CSA areas during break times.

Booklists

BOOKLISTS are ready.   Bedrock Books are our preferred supplier for 2024.  The BOOK LISTS are on the Bedrock Books website. Please make sure you order for the correct year level for your child/ren for 2024.  Please check previous newsletters if more details are required.

Please make sure monies and permission slips have been finalised.

 Thank you from Mrs Ryan
