Principal's Report

The calendar for Term 3 has been updated with some exciting events! August 23 -27 is Book Week and on Wednesday, August 25 we will having our Dress Up Parade. I’m looking forward to seeing which is the most popular book character at BPS! There will be more information about the parade in the next newsletter.

Students from Prep to Grade 6 are attending Burnie High School's production, ‘Sleeping Beauty’ on September 10. We are looking forward to supporting our local high school. More information will be sent home closer to the date.

Winter is definitely still with us, and to help keep us warm in the playground Burnie Primary now has school beanies! The beanies look fantastic and are lovely and warm. They are $12 and available for purchase from the front office.  One size fits all.....

Attendance

It is important that your child feels connected to the school and their class whilst they are convalescing.  If a student has been away for two consecutive days the teacher will touch base with the family on the third day.  This is a way to support your child to stay connected. This may be a phone call, or via seesaw message. If you would like support before then, please don’t hesitate to contact your child’s teacher or the office.

If your child is away for more than two consecutive days we ask that you provide the school with a medical certificate or statutory declaration. A statutory declaration form is available from the front office.

If you have any questions, please contact us.

Assembly

Our first assembly for Term 3 is on Thursday 19 August at 1:30pm. Families of award recipients will be contacted prior to the assembly to join us in celebrating their child’s achievements.

Student Wellbeing Survey

The Student Wellbeing Survey will be available for all grade 4-6 students to participate in from Monday August 30 - Friday September 3 2021. This survey provides us with valuable information about how we can better support your child’s learning and wellbeing. More information is included in this newsletter.

Kinder 2022

If your child was born in 2017 you can enrol them now for Kinder 2022! Please contact the school office if you are unsure when your child starts their Kinder year.

Breakfast Club Donation

Thank you to Kristy and Nate for your donation of jams to our Breakfast Club. Fingers crossed it won’t be long until we open!
