A big thank you to all the Father's/Caregiver's that came along to our Father's Day breakfast club last Thursday. We hope you enjoyed your bacon and egg burgers and spending time with your children to celebrate you. Another big thank you to everyone who donated produce and their time to ensure this event could go ahead. It was so lovely to see our Byford Primary School community coming together to celebrate the Father's and father figures in our lives. 

We hope you all had an amazing Father's day on Sunday the 1^st September with your loved ones and we look forward to celebrating again next year.

Student Support Team

Well done to everyone who participated in our Faction Carnival held on Friday 30th August 2024 and a special CONGRATULATIONS to our medal winners for this year.

What’s been happening in Room 15 – Kindy?

Over the past few weeks in kindergarten, we have been investigating a mini unit on lifecycles. We introduced the concept of living and non-living things and discussed the lifecycles of frogs, butterflies, and plants. In Week 7 we enjoyed a local visit to our wetlands to collect some tadpoles, bringing some back for observation in our science centre.

Classroom Teacher

Thanks to our fabulous classroom Teachers and Education Assistants, students completed artwork has been proudly displayed in their classrooms throughout the year. Currently our senior students have their work on colour theory showing. They drew monochromatic Chinese vases and painted complimentary colour abstract designs incorporating value scale into it. Junior students have been learning about different artists. Currently showing are their Joan Miro artworks. And in our middle years, students have been learning about different subject matter. On show are some Cezanne inspired still-life’s, Etel Adnan 3-line landscapes and some Sandra Silberzweig portraits. Great work Byford Primary Artists! We look forward to seeing more.

ROOM 10

In Room 10 we have been learning about angles.  We built on our knowledge of angle names by focussing on the size.  To do this, we learned how to use protractors!

A ‘No Hat, Limited Outside Play’ policy is enforced at Byford Primary School all year.  Parents can assist us by reinforcing the need for protection from the sun by ensuring that students have a wide brim hat. Hats can be purchased through the school uniform shop next to Room 3.  Students who do not have a hat are instructed to play under sheltered areas such as the Undercover Area near the canteen. Caps are not acceptable as they do not provide adequate protection to the ears and back of the neck from the sun.
