Beaudesert State School Newsletter

Recently, our P&C conducted a parent survey that included several questions about school processes, programs and future planning. I appreciate the feedback provided and would like to answer some of the most common questions below.

WHAT ARE THE CLASS AWARDS PRESENTED ON PARADE EACH WEEK?  

We have several class awards our year levels strive for. These include:

🐝 Beauy Bee Award 🐝

Our Rubbish Rangers head out each week to keep an eye on classrooms and areas around the school. They look for spaces that are clean, tidy, and well cared for. The classroom that consistently maintains the tidiest environment and surroundings will be awarded the Beauy Bee for the week. We love seeing our students take pride in their spaces—keep up the great work! 👏

🤖 Doraemon Award 🤖

During Japanese lessons, our teachers recognise a senior class that demonstrates positive behaviour and engagement. They look for respectful participation, teamwork, smooth transitions, and students following expectations in their learning. The senior class that best demonstrates these behaviours will be awarded the Doraemon for the week. Great work showing respect, teamwork, and enthusiasm for learning Japanese! 🌟

🐻 Beauy Bear Award 🐻

Each week in Specialist Lessons, the Beauy Bear Award is presented to the class that best demonstrates Beaudesert State School’s values of being Safe, Respectful and Responsible.

Classes earn points through positive behaviour, enthusiastic participation, teamwork, and a commitment to learning. Students who show kindness, support others, follow expectations, and strive to do their best contribute to their class's success. The Beauy Bear Award celebrates the wonderful effort and positive learning culture our students bring to Specialist Lessons each week. Wonderful work showing respect, teamwork, and positive learning behaviours! 🌟

Attendance Cup and end of term pizza party criteria

At Beaudesert State School, we recognise and celebrate classes with outstanding attendance each week because we know that every day at school matters. Regular attendance supports academic achievement, builds positive friendships and helps students feel connected to their learning and school community.

While we encourage students to attend school every day they are well, we also recognise the importance of keeping children at home when they are unwell. This helps support their recovery and prevents illness from spreading to other students and staff.

Our weekly attendance award is about promoting the importance of regular attendance when students are healthy and able to learn.

HOW ARE FREE DRESS DAYS SELECTED?

At the beginning of each year, our Student Leadership Team works with me to plan a range of fun events for the school calendar, including Free Dress Days. Students select from a bank of themed dress-up days, with the leadership team determining the order throughout the year. A long-standing school tradition is dressing in our favourite State of Origin colours for Game 1 of the State of Origin series.

WHAT ARE GOLD COIN DONATIONS USED FOR?

Each year we hold a Year 6 Social as a farewell celebration for our graduating students. This event is separate from the Year 6 Awards and Graduation Ceremony. Funds raised through Free Dress Days, together with the generous support of our P&C, help offset costs and keep the event affordable for families.

WHAT SPORTING EVENTS DO EACH YEAR LEVEL PARTICIPATE IN?

Prep to Year 2 students participate in our Prep–Year 2 Sports Day, which includes a 50-metre sprint, house ball games and a lap-a-thon. The lap-a-thon is our junior version of Cross Country and includes a range of fun obstacles designed to combine physical activity with enjoyment.

Students in Years 3–6 participate in our annual Cross Country Carnival and Athletics Carnival. Athletics events are organised by students' age groups rather than year levels, meaning students may compete alongside peers from different year levels.

Our Swimming Carnival is traditionally held later in the year. As this falls during storm season, weather conditions occasionally impact the event. If the carnival cannot proceed, students are able to submit qualifying times directly to our HPE teacher.

These events form part of our school's 'Big Three' sporting carnivals: Swimming, Athletics and Cross Country. Eligible students from each carnival may be selected to represent Beaudesert State School at Pacific District events.

WHAT REPRESENTATIVE SPORTING OPPORTUNITIES ARE AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS?

Throughout the year, our HPE teacher, Mr Ed Brimelow, shares representative sporting trial information and age eligibility requirements via Audiri. Parents can then contact Mr Brimelow directly for nomination details and further information.

Our school participates in the annual Kingfisher Cup interschool sporting competition for Year 5 and 6 students. Sports currently include Rugby League and Netball, with teams being co-educational. As representative sport is a non-curricular activity, students are expected to meet behaviour and attendance expectations to be eligible for participation.

This year, Beaudesert State School also hosted a Year 3 and 4 Soccer Carnival involving local schools. The same behaviour and attendance expectations applied, with the majority of interested students meeting the criteria and participating.

Towards the end of Term 3, we will conduct school-based trials in partnership with Australian Futsal for Under 9, Under 10, Under 11 and Under 12 teams to compete in the inaugural Scenic Rim Country School Cup on 10–11 November at Mt Warren Park Indoor Sports Centre. Mr Brimelow and I will work alongside students to prepare for this competition, with further information about trials to be shared later this term.

WHY ARE SPORTING EVENTS HELD AT CERTAIN TIMES OF THE YEAR?

School sporting events are scheduled to align with the Pacific District calendar. This allows eligible students to progress through district, regional, state and, potentially, national representative pathways.

WHY DOES THE SCHOOL INVEST IN BEFORE-SCHOOL SPORTING PROGRAMS?

Our school has strong partnerships with NRL, AFL and Brisbane Roar, as well as a developing partnership with Australian Futsal. These partnerships provide additional opportunities for students from Prep to Year 6 to participate in organised sport before school.

Participation in these programs can also lead to unique experiences, including opportunities to accompany professional teams onto the field or participate in halftime activities at major sporting venues. Families involved in these programs are often among the first to hear about such opportunities.

Every three years, communities across Australia participate in the Australian Early Development Census (AEDC). This data helps schools and communities understand how children are developing before commencing formal schooling. The most recent AEDC results identified Physical Health and Wellbeing as an area requiring additional support within our local community. This is one of the reasons Beaudesert State School continues to invest in quality sporting programs, physical activity opportunities and healthy lifestyle initiatives.

WHAT ABOUT THE ARTS AND LANGUAGES?

Each year, our Arts teacher leads a whole-school Arts Showcase during Term 3. This year we are aiming to align the event with Parent-Teacher Interviews to provide greater convenience for working families. Further details will be shared next term.

Our Instrumental Music teachers also host concerts throughout the year to showcase the talents of our students. Semester 2 concert dates will be released shortly.

This year, we are also working with Kyoai Gakuen Junior High School from Japan on a study tour to Beaudesert. Students will have opportunities to host visiting students in their classrooms and learn more about Japanese culture. Later in the year, our Year 6 students will participate in our annual Japanese Day, celebrating their years of learning with Sensei Becerra.

CAN WE HAVE A TINA STREET PARENT DROP-OFF ZONE?

Our P&C is currently working with local council representatives and parliamentary members to advocate for funding for a dedicated Tina Street drop-off zone. As this project requires external funding and approvals, it is a lengthy process. Updates are regularly discussed at P&C meetings, and all families are welcome to attend and support this initiative.

WHEN CAN THE ARTHUR STREET PARENT CAR PARK BE UPGRADED?

I have been advocating for improvements to this space with our South East Regional Facilities team for several years. Ultimately, any upgrade is dependent on external funding. I will continue to work with regional teams and advocate alongside our community for improvements to this area.

HOW CAN WE GET A HIGHER BOUNDARY FENCE?

Over the past 12 months, I have continued to work with the School Security Team to report and monitor unauthorised access to our site. Decisions regarding school security infrastructure are based on assessed risk levels across the state. We will continue to document and report incidents while advocating for the needs of our school community.

I'D LIKE TO SEE ADDITIONAL FUNDRAISING EVENTS. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?

Outside of major Chappy fundraising events, our P&C coordinates fundraising initiatives including Easter and Christmas raffles, Subway Days, Mother's Day and Father's Day stalls, and this year's pie drive.

These events require significant volunteer support, and we are fortunate to have a small but highly dedicated P&C working hard for our students. If you would like to see additional fundraising opportunities, I encourage you to attend a P&C meeting and become involved in helping bring new ideas to life.

As we conclude Term 2, I would like to thank our students for their enthusiasm, our staff for their dedication and our families for their ongoing partnership. The strength of Beaudesert State School lies in the relationships we build together and our shared commitment to supporting every child to succeed.

I wish all families a safe and enjoyable holiday break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back, refreshed and ready for another exciting term of learning, growth and opportunity, on Monday 13 July.

This term we have been learning how to retell a story, by telling what happens in the beginning, middle and end. We have been reading many books and discussing the characters and setting. We have also been learning how to make a personal connection to a part of the story. In Maths, we have been learning what is mass and finding items in the classroom that are heavier and lighter. We have enjoyed using the balance scales. We continued our learning on 2D shapes and finding them all around us. Our favourite Maths learning was collecting data and asking our friends what different sports, animals and foods they prefer. We had fun walking around with our clipboards and recording sheets. In Science we have been learning about how items move and have enjoyed experimenting movement with items we find. Our term was busy with lots of events including, Under 8's Day, Book Fair, Brainstorm Production Show and Colour Fun Run which left everyone smiling. 

In Year 1 in English this term we have been writing the retell of a story and finding the problem in the middle. We have been learning to make our writing more interesting by adding describing words.  We have been working hard towards building our skills in spelling, reading and comprehension. In Maths we have been learning how to use direction to move people and objects. We enjoyed giving our friends directions and seeing them follow them. We have been practising our skills of addition and subtraction and making up our own word problems. In Science we have been enjoying experimenting with different objects to see how they move and how we can change their shape. Year 1 have enjoyed a few events this term including the ANZAC Day parade where we showed incredible respect, the colour fun run where we turned ourselves into rainbows, Police talks about safety, the book fair where we had the opportunity to buy books for our home libraries, Mother's Day stall, Under 8's day where we had fun at all the stalls, the dentist visit and finally the Brainstorm Production show where we watched a fun show about positive connections and behaviours. 

In Year 2 this term, we have been engaged in a range of exciting learning experiences across all curriculum areas. In English, students have been developing their recount writing skills by retelling events from the story Edward the Emu. In Mathematics, students have been strengthening their understanding of 3-digit addition and subtraction, exploring the features of 3D shapes, and developing their measurement skills through hands-on learning activities. In Science, students have been investigating the relationship between the Earth, Moon and Sun, learning how they move in relation to one another and how these movements affect our world. In HASS, students have been exploring the continents of the world.

Some highlights for this term were the Monty the Monstar colour fun run, under 8’s day and the Brainstorm Productions incursion, which students thoroughly enjoyed. As we wrap up a fantastic term of learning, we would like to thank families for their continued support. Stay tuned for updates about our exciting Year 2 excursion planned for Term 3!

Year 3 students have had a busy and exciting term filled with lots of learning across all subject areas. Throughout the term, students have shown enthusiasm, curiosity, and a willingness to challenge themselves in their learning.

In English, students have loved becoming authors and creating their very own stories. They have worked hard to make their writing engaging by using noun groups, evaluative language, different sentence types and “show, don’t tell” techniques to entertain their readers. It has been wonderful to see students’ creativity and confidence grow throughout the writing process.

In Mathematics, students have been developing their understanding of measurement by learning about capacity, mass and length through a range of hands-on activities. They have also been building their knowledge of number and place value, applying their skills during class investigations and problem-solving tasks.

In Science, students explored solids and liquids and investigated how heat can change matter. They enjoyed conducting experiments to support their learning and making predictions about different scientific outcomes. To finish off our unit, students were very excited to participate in a fun and engaging incursion with Street Science, where they experienced a variety of exciting science demonstrations and experiments.

Year 3 Teachers

We hope everyone is keeping warm and healthy as we head towards the end of another busy and exciting term!

This term, our Year 4 students have been immersed in learning about Australia's early history. Through HASS, students explored the arrival of the First Fleet and the impact of colonisation on Australia. They investigated the experiences of both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples and the European settlers, developing their understanding through discussions, research tasks, and inquiry learning. In English, students brought history to life by taking on the role of convict children and writing detailed diary entries from a first-person perspective. Their creativity and enthusiasm have resulted in some fantastic pieces of writing.

Our Science and Design Technology learning has continued to be a highlight. Students investigated different types of forces and how they affect movement. They applied this knowledge when designing, constructing, and testing their own pinball machines. Throughout the process, students demonstrated excellent problem-solving skills, creativity, and perseverance as they refined their designs.

Mathematics has been another busy area of learning this term. Students have developed their understanding of perimeter and area, explored units of measurement, investigated lines of symmetry, and strengthened their knowledge of time. They have practised solving real-world problems involving elapsed time, converting between units of time, and calculating the perimeter and area of various shapes. It has been wonderful to see students growing in confidence and applying these skills across different learning contexts.

Outside the classroom, students have enjoyed several memorable events throughout the term. The Year 3 and 4 Soccer Carnival was a fantastic day, with students displaying great sportsmanship, teamwork, and enthusiasm. Another highlight was our Colour Fun Run, which was a huge success and brought plenty of excitement, laughter, and colourful memories for everyone involved.

Students also participated in the Brainstorm Productions incursion, which focused on kindness, emotions, and positive relationships. The engaging performance encouraged valuable discussions about empathy, resilience, and strategies for managing emotions, helping students build important social and emotional skills.

As we approach the end of the term, we would like to congratulate all students on their hard work, effort, and achievements. It has been wonderful to see their growth across all learning areas. We hope everyone enjoys a well-deserved holiday break and takes the opportunity to rest, recharge, and spend time with family and friends.

Take care and stay safe over the holidays.

The Year 4 Team

It has been a busy and productive term in Year 5, with students engaging in a wide range of learning experiences across the curriculum.

In English, students have been developing their narrative writing skills, creating stories centred around friendship conflicts and resolutions. They have worked hard to include engaging sizzling starts, detailed descriptions, dialogue and figurative language to bring their stories to life. This term, our classroom has been filled with talking dogs, soccer stars, dragons, robots, princes and princesses, daring adventurers and unforgettable friendships. Every story brought something different, and students thoroughly enjoyed sharing their imaginative worlds with their classmates. Students should be proud of the creativity and effort they have shown in crafting their own unique narratives.

In Mathematics, students have explored multiplication strategies, fractions, decimals, percentages, multiples and factors. They have worked on making connections between different mathematical concepts and developing confidence in explaining their thinking.

In Science, students have been investigating light and exploring a range of light phenomena, including reflection, refraction, shadows and how light travels. Students particularly enjoyed the hands-on investigations, using mirrors, torches and other materials to explore how light behaves. It has been wonderful to see them thinking and working like young scientists as they tested their ideas and made observations.

In HASS, students have been learning about democracy and decision making in Australia, exploring how laws are made and the roles different groups and individuals play in our government. Students were especially engaged when learning about laws, rules and the people responsible for enforcing them. Many enjoyed debating real life scenarios and discovering how our legal system helps keep communities safe and fair.

In Design and Technologies, students have been investigating sustainability and designing vegetable gardens that meet the needs of a community while considering environmental impacts. Students have come up with some fabulous and creative garden designs, incorporating features such as compost systems, worm farms and companion planting to support healthy and sustainable food production.

In Visual Art, students have been studying famous portraits by artists such as Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh. They have explored how artists use the elements of art in their work and are creating their own self-portraits to demonstrate their understanding of line, shape, colour and texture while also conveying emotion, mood and tone.

Outside the classroom, students enjoyed participating in the Colour Fun Run and Athletics Carnival. These events provided wonderful opportunities for students to demonstrate teamwork, sportsmanship and school spirit.

Earlier in the term, we commemorated ANZAC Day and took time to learn about the service and sacrifice of Australian and New Zealand servicemen and women. Students created class wreaths and participated respectfully in discussions and activities that helped them understand the significance of this important occasion.

Throughout the semester, Year 5 students have been participating in lessons focused on the Zones of Regulation. These lessons help students develop a greater understanding of their emotions, recognise how they are feeling, and build a toolbox of strategies to help them self-regulate, solve problems and make positive choices. Developing these skills supports students to become more independent learners, responsible community members and positive role models for others.

Year 5 students also participated in National Simultaneous Storytime, an annual event where children across Australia read the same book at the same time. This year's story, Luna Roo the Kangaroo Baller, followed a young soccer playing kangaroo captain who learns the importance of courage, determination and teamwork. These are qualities that not only help students succeed on the sporting field but also support them in becoming positive role models within our school community. We have seen many students demonstrate these qualities throughout the term, and it has been exciting to see so many Year 5 students recognised with Actions for Success awards. These awards celebrate students who consistently demonstrate our school values and make positive choices both in and out of the classroom.

As the year progresses and our Year 5 students move closer to becoming the senior leaders of the school, it is a great time for them to begin thinking about the example they set for others. Like Luna Roo, leadership requires courage, determination, teamwork and resilience. Leadership is not just about wearing a leadership badge. It is about showing responsibility, respect, kindness and making positive choices every day. We encourage students to reflect on whether they see themselves as future leaders and to consider the behaviours and attitudes that will help them be positive role models for our school community next year.

We are looking forward to our SparkLab and Queensland Museum excursion in Term 3, Week 2. If you have not yet returned your permission form, please do so as soon as possible. Additional copies are available from the school office if required.

Thank you for your continued support throughout the term. We wish all our Year 5 families a safe, relaxing and enjoyable holiday break and look forward to another fantastic term ahead.

Wow what a great term we’ve had! With only a week to go, we’ll fill you in on some of the amazing things we’ve been getting up to. In English, the students have been wowing us with their descriptive language and creating some extremely exciting stories. They might be the next budding Roald Dahl! In maths, we’ve been learning about fractions, area and angles and if you ask most of the kids, they are probably thrilled the unit is over. We’ve also been learning about statistics and probability. Science has been an engaging unit! In this class we have been creating electrical circuits, looking at sources of energy and renewable energy and we have been challenging the students to create security devices for their delicious lollies. We promise no one was harmed! In HASS, we’ve been learning about consumers, trade offs and opportunity costs. Hopefully the students will be more aware when hounding you for something and more aware of financial costs of items.

Your Year 6 Teachers,

Kim Foster, Mel Ainsworth, Matt Lourey and Georgia Witte.

This term in Japanese, students in Years 3–6 have been learning about travel and transport in Japan. They have practised creating sentences about travelling to different cities in Japan using a variety of modes of transport.

We also explored the amazing Shinkansen (Bullet Train), one of Japan’s most famous inventions. Be sure to ask your child which bird inspired the design of the Shinkansen’s distinctive nose!

Students have continued developing their knowledge of hiragana, one of the Japanese writing systems. They should be very proud of their progress, as they can already read and write many Japanese characters.

Did you know there are over 500 different ways to count things in Japanese? These are known as counter classifiers. This term, students were assessed on five commonly used counters and demonstrated excellent effort in applying them.

Looking ahead to next term, we are excited to welcome nine Japanese students to our school for a week-long visit. They will spend time in our Year 6 classrooms, and some of our junior classes will have the opportunity to share the art of origami with our visitors. Keep an eye on Audiri for photos and updates from this special cultural exchange experience.

Doraemon Award Winners

Congratulations to our Doraemon Award-winning classes this term: 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B and 6C

These classes consistently demonstrated exemplary behaviour, positive transitions between lessons, and outstanding participation in Japanese.

Well done – よくできました (Yoku dekimashita)!

Wishing all of our students and families a safe and happy holiday break.

Becerra Sensei

Prep

Our Prep students have been busy bringing stories to life through design and technology. This term, students focused on creating stick puppets to accompany the classic tale The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Before constructing their puppets, each student carefully designed and planned their troll, thinking about its appearance and features. Students then used a range of materials and construction techniques to bring their ideas to life. The finished puppets look fantastic, and students enjoyed using them to retell the story and develop their storytelling skills.

Year 1 and 2

Year 1 and 2 students have continued exploring Food and Fibre Production through their plant-growing project. Using the tools available in Seesaw, students designed and created a digital label for the plant they had grown. They considered personal preferences, including who might enjoy eating their plant and different ways it could be used in meals. Students demonstrated creativity while also developing their digital skills by creating and sharing their work using digital technologies.

Year 3 and 4

Year 3 and 4 students have been learning about different types of data and how information can be represented digitally. As part of their assessment, students created a PowerPoint presentation showcasing a variety of data types, including text, images, sound, symbols, and colour. They then took the next step by learning how data can be shared digitally, successfully emailing their presentations to their teacher. This provided valuable experience in both creating digital content and using communication technologies responsibly.

Year 5 and 6

Year 5 and 6 students have continued their learning about digital systems, networks, and data. Throughout the unit, students explored how digital devices communicate, how data is represented and processed, and the importance of secure and responsible use of technology. Students have now demonstrated their understanding by completing their end-of-unit examination.

Our Lunchtime Robotics Club continues to grow, with several new students being invited to join the program this term. The new members have settled in well and have quickly become valuable contributors to the group.

Students have been working with LEGO robotics, constructing identical drive bases before customising them with attachments designed to complete specific tasks. Current projects include designing mechanisms capable of picking up and moving blocks, requiring students to apply both engineering and coding skills.

As students continue to refine their robot designs, their programming skills are also developing rapidly. It has been wonderful to see students collaborating, experimenting with different solutions and persevering through challenges as they bring their robotic creations to life.

To attend our program, you must register your child. You can register an account with us at Camp Australia - Parent Portal or by downloading our Camp Australia smartphone app from the Apple App Store or on Google Play. Once registered, it's easy to make bookings and manage your account.
