FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK

NERAM Art Finalists

Every year Tamworth Public School take part in the University of New England School Acquisitive Art Prize (NERAM). There were more than 500 art entries this year, from 50 schools. Congratulations to Lachlan and Sunny who are amongst a group of 60 finalists. Thanks to Mrs Burrows for organising and Mrs Taylor for getting the entries ready.

National Reconciliation Week

This week Tamworth Public School is commemorating National Reconciliation Week. National Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, achievements and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. Throughout the week students will be taking part in activities and education around Reconciliation Australia’s theme for 2023, “Be a Voice for Generations.”

Primary Disco

On Thursday 8 June we will be hosting two Primary Discos. Years 3 and 4 will be from 5pm-6pm and Years 5 and 6 will be from 6:30pm-7:30pm. DJ’s and PJ’s is the theme for the night. Thanks to Miss Mack for organising and staff for volunteering to run the disco. 

Player Medals for North West Touch Football

Last week TPS students Kade, Sophie and Dakota attended the NSW PSSA Touch Football Carnival in St Mary’s, Sydney. At the end of each carnival a player is chosen for the North West Medal. Congratulations to Kade and Dakota who both received this medal, voted on by their peers.

Clothing Pool Donations

With the cold weather there is a rising need for secondhand winter clothing. If you have any good quality second hand uniforms that you could donate to the clothing pool it would be appreciated. Please remember to re-label items bought from the clothing pool as they often still have the previous owner’s name labelled on them.
