PRINCIPAL’S REPORT Dear Parents I would like to start this week by congratulating the talented students who represented the school last week at the District Swimming Carnival held in Canowindra. Not only did the children put 100% into their events but what really stood out on the day was the support our students showed one another and the encouragement offered, which was truly wonderful. Many personal best times were recorded and several of our students will now proceed to Western Region being held in Dubbo on Friday, 6 March. With many standouts on the day by all students, Isabella Scammell’s and Mac Webster‘s result of Age ChampionS needs special mention. This week we welcome back Mrs Kilby and have visiting teachers coming to the school for some professional learning in the area of L3. The teachers will have the opportunity to meet with other class teachers who are running L3 in their school, which will enable all staff to look and review techniques and establish best practice. Mr Murray will be away from the school on Friday. He will attend the AECG Regional Meeting in Dubbo. Mr Murray is a member of the Cowra AECG and has been chosen as the Area delegate. Next week the school is in for a very hectic week starting on Tuesday with Stage 2 having the opportunity to view a collection of artefacts from the NSW Library. These artefacts link with the current HSIE unit being reviewed on European Settlement in Australia. Also on Tuesday we have a group of students participating in a Rugby Union Gala Day in Cowra. Following this, on Wednesday the Boys’ Cricket team will be playing Grenfell in the first round of PSSA sport for the year. Next, all of Stage 3 will be participating in the AFL gala day at the park. Finally, the school will be sending the swimming representatives to Dubbo on Friday for the Western Region Championships. A very busy week.
At the school the children will also be completing their preparations for the upcoming Festival Of International Understanding. This year the festival is focusing on South Korea. Our classes have been investigating and learning about this unique country and have been looking at the customs and lifestyles of the people of South Korea. During the festival Cowra Public School is going to participate in the Festival Parade in the form of a march. The children will assemble near the pool and we are asking that they come wearing a white shirt and blue shorts. A red sash will be provided . The children will carry lanterns on a bamboo pole that has been made at school. More details will be given to the children next week. Another major event will be the Cowra Public School Fete which is on Friday, 20 March. We encourage all parents and community members to come along to this great night and have some fun. We are also hoping that parents will take the opportunity to assist on the night in providing some Jazzy Jars, helping out with a stall or simply giving a hand to set up. This event is the P&C’s big event for the year and we hope everyone will support. Enjoy the week. Brad Tom

BAND CAMP Last week Anja Gower and Madeleine Mulligan attended the Department of Education band Camp at Lake Burrendong. Every day after breakfast the two girls would attend Breathing/Gym held in the Recreation Hall. This was a great opportunity for the girls as they got to experience new things that will help them play their instruments better. Every day they would be taken by tutors to practise their part of the pieces they were given. After this everyone would come together and practise as an orchestra for 6 hours a day. After lunch everyone would be given a break to do recreational activities such as archery, 50m slip and slides down a huge hill, rock climbing, pool games and other activities. Anja and Madeleine could perform some of their pieces from home to give them confidence in performing. The two girls enjoyed this week very much and will both be definitely be going back next year with hopefully some newcomers! Anja Gower and Madeleine Mulligan

PSSA SCHOOL TENNIS COMPETITION On Wednesday, 17 February the Cowra Public School Tennis team played Grenfell Public School at Cowra Tennis Courts. The team consisted of Isabella Scammell, Nashwa Bakini, Courtney Wright, Jayden J. Brown, Lewis McFarland and Mac Webster. We first played games of singles, then double and followed by mixed doubles. In the singles Isabella, Courtney, Nashwa and Jayden won their games while Mac and Lewis went down very narrowly to two very experienced boys. In the doubles Isabella and Courtney played very well but were narrowly beaten, while Mac and Lewis were also defeated after playing some very exciting tennis. In the mixed doubles Jayden and Nashwa played their best tennis of the day, but were narrowly defeated. Courtney and Lewis had lots of energy and had some great rallies but in the end they also went down to a much more experienced team. Isabella and Mac won their doubles game and displayed great teamwork and talent. The score on the day ended up Grenfell Public School’s way with a close score at the end of 5-3. The Cowra Public School team showed great sportsmanship and were very happy when they went to McDonalds afterwards. The team would like to thank Mrs Hilton for organising the team and Mrs Donna Wright for her assistance on the day. By Isabella Scammell and Nashwa Bakini
