Native Tree Planting
This week, Environment Club students along with Property Services staff planted two native trees at our ELC. The trees were given to us by Burnside Council and were planted for National Tree Day (26 July).
The new trees are a Hymenosporum Flavum, commonly named a ‘Native Frangipani’ with bright yellow/orange flowers and a red centre, and a Banksia Integrifolia commonly named ‘Banksia’ which also has a bright yellow, bottle brush style flower.
Thank you to The City of Burnside for providing us with these beautiful natives.
These native plants are a wonderful addition to the many other native species lining the new ELC front pathway, we know they will be enjoyed by students and families for many years to come.
Year Level Parent Representatives
Year Level Parent Representatives play an important role within our school, to help build a sense of community, fun and support among the year level students and their families.
Since 2022, I have been a Parent Representative for my daughter’s year level. With the support, assistance, social ideas and appreciation received from families, my role as the Representative has been easy, fun and very rewarding.
Our year level WhatsApp group for parents is our main form of communication, our posts include social events, school reminders/relevant information and news, welcome to new families and lost clothing.
I am grateful for the energy and enthusiasm amongst our year level parents, we have held a number of family events that have been well attended, such as:
- Mid-Year Banquet Dinner at Vietnam Restaurant
- Easter Egg Hunt on the Chiverton Lawns with 80+ children
- End of Year Lunch on the lawns at Anvers Wines
- Mid-Year Yum Cha at Chef Dong
Our goal over the next 10 years is to try cuisines from every culture that is represented in our year level.
On top of our enjoyment of culinary delights, we are often seen as a group at Victoria Park on bikes and scooters or kicking a football………and planning the next social event!
If you would like to be a Parent Representative but want to know more about the role before committing, please feel free to speak to me, any of the other Year Level Parent Representatives, or Fiona McGregor, Community Relations Officer (fmcgregor@stpetersgirls.sa.edu.au)
Additionally, if you have connections, or know of any venues, restaurants, wineries etc that would be suitable for year level social gatherings please pass details on to Fiona McGregor.
