Spare Havenlee School Uniforms 

If anyone has Havenlee School uniforms that are too small for their child, the school will value any 2nd hand uniforms. We often need extra clothes to use when students have used up their spares. 

 

Attendance 

Thank you to everyone who calls in or writes in the communication diary when their child is going to be away or why they have been away. It greatly helps us keep accurate attendance records at the school. Also, If you know that your child will be finishing up for the year early, can you please let the office know. 

 

Remembrance Day 

On Monday 13th November, the school had a short Remembrance Day service during our normal assembly time. There was a slide show simply explaining what Remembrance Day is all about and a number of students laid wreaths in the hall. 

 

2024 Budget 

In week 4 our school received our proposed budget allocation for 2024.  

We have received $3,759,237 which is approximately the same as last year. This includes money for staffing costs (approx 80%) and operational costs (approx. 20%). I also try and employ as many extra staff out of operational costs as possible as well. I would like to thank the P&C who have agreed to commit money for the school for 2024. This money will go towards the Hydrotherapy Program, the Playskills program and the Sensory program. More details regarding these programs will be communicated early next year when the budget is finalised.

Wellbeing Chat

Havenlee students remembered  those who fought for our freedom on November 11 with a lovely display of Poppy wreaths.

Every week students create fresh floral arrangements. Both of these brighten up the school entrance hallway which looks great.

Keep cool as the weather warms up.

New South Wales School Sport

Alex attended the School Sport Boccia Tournament in Sydney last week and absolutely loved it.

Free Autism Workshop

Weeks 7-10- Safe ‘Responsible for my body’

In weeks 7-10 of this term the PBL focus is safe and students being responsible for their bodies. Explicit lessons are being taught in classrooms including following a 1,2,3 and complex instruction, waiting for a cue and purposefully acting with the intention of a specific result. This can be demonstrated in classroom activities, sport, work crews, following instructions and using equipment safely e.g. in the playground or using scissors in the classroom. PBL tickets are given out to students being responsible for their bodies.
